OK lets get one thing straight.

NO ONE HERE IS SELLING PICTURES OR VIDEOS

This is not an art, picture, photo or video industry. It's the porn business. We sell hard ons and orgasms, the ones our clients have.

Yes many people get off on the fact that the model is amateur, few people get of on the illusion that the photographer is an amateur and the model is the local stripper going through the motions.

That means the model has to look like she was doing it for his/her lover and fucked the photographer afterwards. Not like she was thinking about how much longer she had to spend in front of this dick head trying to work out what end of the camera he should point at the model.

Xenigo, nice pictures but poor porn.

Selling porn is easy if you know what is porn, selling pictures of naked people is an uphill struggle. Knowing the difference between the two takes skills, most of your memberships have those skills, some paysite owners have them many do not. Yes they can design a great tour, program it so it whistles and then kill it by putting in the wrong content. the actual product we sell.

Xenigo I have never had a days formal photographic training in my life, but I can out TEEN PORNO PICTURE shoot most of the people in the world. That may sound arrogant, but it's true. List 20 stills shooters with a track record better than mine.

But have no fear the product we, as an industry, sell on the Internet will get better. Because every time a surfer signs up to a good site the bad sites lose a potential client and there are more good sites popping up by the day.

On another board there is a thread about a gallery listed on a top TGP site not getting any conversions. Great listing, nice gallery and it all works. Except crappy content aimed at IMO a poor site. The B/W bill will be a nice lesson for the submitter.
