Obviously you're in favor of the system. As a shooter who could never of operated at the better paying levels of porn and would of gone bankrupt long before you or your partner learned how to shoot porn. You had to sell to people buying on on price.So te system was good for you.

Yes Roald it does count. Just compare it with a paysite not a shooter who also put up a site. There are amateur sites that make very good money. but the idea that some guy can pick up a camera and capture the emotion and atmosphere the girls boyfriend will get from a girl who doesn't know him, might not like hi, only there for the money, done it a few times before and doesn't always care if it's good. Is also wrong. It takes more than a camera and naked girl to create good porn.

All it takes to get traffic, is a computer and connection, all it takes to be a designer is a computer and Photoshop, etc. A bit of skill also helps.

hehe - you are the one who keeps mixing novelties into porn - now a homemade porn site cannot be compared?

We had 2 very early clients btw - Karups and Twistys. You have no idea how many sets we shot for Twistys in 2004/2005 - without them we would have never learned how to shoot properly and we would have never survived that time. Thanks Shap and Beth

but we also invested money in our own content and in the shop instead of looking for short term profit - and voilá, we're in 2012 and doing better than ever. And i am not kidding.

what separates us both is that you keep thinking a name or skill has something to do with porn or what is currently in demand. you keep throwing around names of people like Steven Hicks or Suze Randall that cater to a small niche and who would never sell to a broader audience.

we just adapt to whatever is in demand - just a very few people even know who actually shoots what we sell.

and when the owner of MyDirtyHobby buys half of the porn biz, including Twistys, this should answer your question
