Thierry Murell used to be the main photographer at Glam Deluxe.
But Glam Deluxe closed down.
I guess that Murell stopped contributing to the site as frequently and the site had other problems.
The selection of models at Glam Deluxe was quite good.
Another softcore glamour site that went bust.
Murell has contributed some nice sets to MetArt over the years, but he was never a heavy contributor.
I don't know why: maybe he didn't have the drive to create a lot of sets.
Excellent review.
Especially helpful is the recent update rate, that warns against the slowdown in new sets for the site.
But glad that MetArt support is so helpful.
What confuses me is that MetArt support states they do not own the site.
But I guess that's a legal structure, since the site is included in the MetArt network.
I BELIEVE THIS REVIEW MERITS AT LEAST 2 STARS, AND IS WORTH 2 TICKETS IN THIS WEEK'S RAFFLE.
THE REVIEW IS THOUGHT-PROVOKING, AND ONE OF THE BEST OF ITS KIND.
LET'S GIVE JUSTICE TO WHERE IT'S DUE.
Nice, basic review. I like the specific reasons you give for building the score. My only quibble would be the total score: since you think the site is probably worth a one-time membership, my guess would be a score of 70 would be more appropriate. Even though PU guidelines state that 60-69 is "low recommendation", and 70-79 is "might recommend", I believe that since 50 is the lowest score a site can be rated, most people would think that a score less than 70 means a site to be avoided.
That's my feeling/belief.
So many people, seeing your site score of 65, would think/conclude the site was a waste of money, and might not even bother to read your review.
Whereas you personally felt that the site was worth a one-time membership, and did not feel cheated.
And I definitely feel your review is worth reading, because it gives a very clear explanation/feeling of the site.
If you join one site, you automatically get 9 more sites included.
Then, if your membership goes into a second month, you get 1 additional site.
If your membership goes into a third month, you get 1 more additional site.
If your membership goes beyond 3 months, you get 2 more sites.
But: almost all of the site are small. And most stopped updating years ago.
So there are much better ways to spend your money, than on a membership to this network. You will find much more content, better quality content, easier site navigation, and more frequent updates at other sites and networks.
Maybe years ago this site/network might have justified a membership, while they were still updating, and they might have improved the quality as time went on.
But this is just one of many sites/networks that has little value compared to what other sites offer today.
But some Captcha forms are worse than others.
There are some, where the letters/numbers are so twisted, that you have to guess what the letters/words are, and I get some of those wrong again and again, that I just give up. This isn't for any porn sites that I know of, but for some other content.
There are also Captchas where the letters/numbers move across the screen, and go off the screen and come back on. That's the case with this site. So you have to watch the Captcha a few times, to get all the letters/numbers.
No big deal. Just a bit of irritation. Especially compared to sites that just require the username and password, and are very easy to log in.
I guess they use Captcha for security. But if you are really a computer expert/hacker, there are probably automatic programs that will handle the Captcha.
So the extra security just makes life a bit more difficult for the rest of us.
Thanks for the information, atrapat. I didn't look at the TBP data. Lazy. I just checked that there were no reviews or comments at PU or TBP, and figured there was no data. Before joining PU, I used to read the TBP pages, but since joining PU, I glance at TBP only rarely. I think PU reviews are more up to date and relevant because of member details and opinions. But you reminded me that TBP is still worth looking at to see what's there. You have "site facts" at TBP even if there is no TBP review.
Thanks for the information.
I haven't been keeping up with what is being offered lately.
But Comcast is not available in my area.
(I live in Los Angeles County, norther part of the county.)
Spectrum and AT&T are the basic choices for internet service in my area.
I used to be with Spectrum, but currently with AT&T.
But I'm probably going to switch back to Spectrum.
Because, for me, my ATT contract is for 75 Mbps.
But I use the Wi-Fi for my laptop.
And the Wi-Fi speed often drops to less than 1 Mbps, which is lousy.
With a 100 Mbps connection at Spectrum, my Wi-Fi speeds ranged from 8Mbps to about 22 Mbps, so that's why I switched to ATT.
Which I thought would be faster.
But there is some wiring problem with my house, which the installation tech mentioned.
And that's why my Wi-Fi speeds average less than 1 Mbps to maybe 5+ Mbps, which is lousy. Since I'm paying for a 75 Mbps connection speed.
Thanks for the info.
I will drop by my local Spectrum office to see what the plans and pricing are.
On the internet, Spectrum says 100 Mbps is what they offer.
But will check at the local office, for better information.
But great that you mentioned what is available in your area.
I've read that Spectrum is rolling out faster internet connections, but I don't know specifically if they are offering it in my area, and what the charges would be.
The basic offering is 100 Mbps, no data cap. For $45/month.
Which is not bad.
But 1GB seems like Zoom-Zoom to me.
WTF?
1GB connection?
I live in LA county (CA), and the fastest speed from Spectrum is 100 Mbps. (I think).
I need to call around to see what's available.
OK, why would anyone pay $14.95 for a 3-day trial, when you can get 1 month for $19.95?
Unless you could be sure to download the site contents in a 3-day trial, you might as well pay the extra $5 for a full month.
But since the site is apparently not updating since June 2008, based on atrapat's reply, and since the site has never been reviewed at PU, I would not pay to join this site.
I've read that some sites block download managers.
But this is the first site I've heard of that tells you to disable Norton antivirus.
I'm not computer-literate: but that just seems strange to me.
And dangerous.
If you wander the Internet, you probably come across hundreds or thousands of articles describing how hackers can infect your computers and cell phones and other devices.
I use Norton antivirus.
Have used it for many years.
Every so often, it gives me a pop-up message that it blocked a website from attacking my PC.
That's without downloading anything: just visit a site, and your computer/device can be attacked.
I'm not saying Norton is the best anti-virus program out there, but I'd be nervous as heck if I didn't have it running.
So I wouldn't join the Swallowed site if they advise disabling Norton antivirus.
One problem is quantity. The site appears to have quality softcore pix, but a limited amount of content.
I realize it's a dream for each photographer who wants to start his own site, but it would sure be more economical if some of these photographers agreed to form a ring where membership to one site would entitle you to access to other softcore photographers' sites.
Quantity at Sweet and Nude:
models: 20
sets: 46
photos: 11,183
IT'S AMAZING THE WAY PEOPLE FROM THE EAST COAST, LIKE NEW JERSEY OR NEW YORK, TALK ABOUT SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA AS THE LAND OF THE DREAMERS.
LIKE JERSEY OR NEW YORK ARE MORE REFINED PLACES.
HOME OF THE GANGSTERS AND MAFIA.
AND YES, CALIFORNIA STARTED OUT AS A SPANISH COLONY. THAT MIGHT BE WHY LOS ANGELES AND SAN FERNANDO ARE SPANISH-DERIVED NAMED.
END OF RANT.
EXCELLENT REVIEW, IN SPITE THE PRO-EASTERN SLANT.
I'M GUESSING THAT YOU ARE FEELING A SLIGHT CASE OF PORN-FATIGUE, LIKE SOME OF US. WANTING A BETTER PORN EXPERIENCE THAN WHAT WE'VE BEEN GETTING.
I posted this same message for your comment on the Team Skeet site.
Team Skeet sometimes has problems.
Some PU members complain of poor connection speeds.
But in the past, PU members have written that Team Skeet customer service was friendly and helpful.
So maybe you could contact them that you are having login problems, and would they help?
You should, at least, get some free extended membership days added to your account, because of login problems. Say you deserve the free days because the site would not let you in.
I'm not a Team Skeet member currently, don't work for them, am not a shill.
(Although, if I stick up for a site, I'm sometimes accused of being a liar or a shill.)

Excellent review, per usual.
But this time you seem to have put extra humor and insights into the review.
Almost like a teenager who's madly in love with a girl, yet realizes she might not be the one for him after all.
Nice to see an old PU member with that kind of passion.
Have you seen the recent PU thread: "Ran out of porn...."?
Seems like you haven't fallen prey to the "been there, done that, I want something exciting for a change" syndrome.
I TRY TO GIVE HONEST REVIEWS OF SITES. REVIEWS THAT MIGHT BE HELPFUL IN DECIDING WHETHER A SITE IS WORTH JOINING OR NOT.
OR COMMENTS THAT MIGHT BE HELPFUL. OR INTERESTING OR WHATEVER.
AGAIN, I'M SORRY YOU TOOK MY REPLY AS CRITICAL OF YOUR COMMENT.
AS FAR AS DEFENDING TEAM SKEET: IN MY COMMENT, I MENTIONED THAT OTHER PU MEMBERS HAVE HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE SITE: SLOW DOWNLOAD SPEEDS, NAVIGATION ISSUES, PROBLEMS LOADING PAGES, WHATEVER.
BUT IF YOU THINK MY COMMENT WAS WORTHLESS, OR A LIE, FEEL FREE TO IGNORE IT.
I'M A CURRENT MEMBER OF TEAM SKEET NETWORK.
I USE NORTON SECURITY FOR PROTECTION AGAINST VIRUS, TROJAN, MALWARE, WHATEVER.
I'VE NEVER HAD A WARNING ISSUED BY NORTON AGAINST ANY OF THE TEAM SKEET SITES.
OTHER PU MEMBERS HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT SLOW CONNECTION SPEEDS, LEADING TO DOWNLOAD PROBLEMS, STREAMING VIDEO PROBLEMS, NAVIGATING THE PAGES/SITES PROBLEMS.
I USUALLY GET OK CONNECTION SPEEDS WITH THE TEAM SKEET SITES, MYSELF.
I CAN'T COMMENT ON THE CUSTOMER SUPPORT ISSUE, BECAUSE I'VE NEVER ASKED FOR ANY HELP FROM THEM.
IF YOU WANT, YOU CAN SEND AN EMAIL TO TEAM SKEET CUSTOMER SUPPORT, ASKING FOR A FEW FREE DAYS OF ACCESS, SINCE YOUR ACCESS WAS CUT OFF PREMATURELY. IT'S WORTH A SHOT, SINCE SOME PORN SITES WILL GIVE OUT FREE DAYS IF A CUSTOMER HAS PROBLEMS WITH A SITE.
IF YOU HAVE WAITED UNTIL YOUR MEMBERSHIP WAS ABOUT TO EXPIRE, YOU SHOULD CHECK IF YOUR CANCELLATION STOPPED THE REBILL, OR IF YOU STILL HAVE A CURRENT MEMBERSHIP.
DO IT THROUGH THE EPOCH SITE, SINCE YOU WILL GET FAST CUSTOMER SERVICE (OR AN AUTOMATED RESPONSE) THROUGH EPOCH.
THAT WILL TELL YOU WHETHER YOU STILL HAVE A CURRENT MEMBERSHIP OR NOT.
JUST BECAUSE YOU CANCELLED, IF YOU LEFT IT TOO LATE, YOUR MEMBERSHIP COULD HAVE BEEN RENEWED FOR ANOTHER MONTH.
SOME PU MEMBERS MAKE IT A HABIT TO CANCEL THEIR MONTHLY MEMBERSHIP WITHIN A FEW DAYS OF JOINING. TO BE CERTAIN THEY WON'T BE REBILLED.
AS A SIDE NOTE: IF YOU JOINED EXXXTRA SMALL, THAT GAVE YOU ACCESS TO THE BASIC TEAM SKEET NETWORK SITES (NOT THE PREMIUM SITES), WHICH INCLUDE 27 SITES.
SO I HOPE YOU WERE ABLE TO LOOK AT MOST OF THE OTHER SITES YOU HAD ACCESS TO, TO SEE IF THERE WAS ANY CONTENT YOU MIGHT ENJOY.
SOME OF THE SITES ARE WORTH VIEWING.
I'M NOT A FAN OF THE TEAM SKEET SYSTEM OF HAVING BASIC SITES AND PREMIUM SITES (THAT REQUIRE AN UPGRADED MEMBERSHIP TO ACCESS).
I'VE MENTIONED IN THE LAST FEW REVIEWS I DID ON TEAM SKEET SITES THAT SOME MEMBERS GET A POOR CONNECTION TO TEAM SKEET, WHICH AFFECTS THEIR ABILITY TO DOWNLOAD FILES, TO STREAM VIDEOS, AND TO NAVIGATE THE NETWORK.
I'VE NEVER BEEN A MEMBER OF ANY OF THE PREMIUM TEAM SKEET SITES, BECAUSE I THOUGHT THE PRICE WAS TOO EXPENSIVE FOR WHAT YOU GET.
THERE ARE CURRENTLY 9 PREMIUM SITES IN THE TEAM SKEET NETWORK.
THEY ARE EASILY IDENTIFIED, IF YOU LOOK AT THE SITE LISTING PAGE: THE PREMIUM SITES START WITH THE "SUBMISSIVED" SITE AND CONTINUE DOWN FROM THERE.
THERE ARE CURRENTLY 27 SITES IN THE BASIC TEAM SKEET NETWORK YOU HAVE ACCESS TO WITH A MEMBERSHIP IN ANY ONE OF THE BASIC SITES:
THE NAME OF EACH SITE, WITH THE CURRENT NUMBER OF VIDEOS AT THAT SITE, ON 2017-10-21:
(I AM NOT LISTING THE TEAM SKEET SITES THAT REQUIRE AN EXTRA PAYMENT TO ACCESS):
