Hello everyone, Here is my stance on the New 2257 Records Laws at Pineapplcash. Being a primary content producer myself since 1999. I know what it takes to comply with 2257 regulations, and I can tell you that it consumes a lot of man power to keep everything up to date. I want to give our affiliates as much time as possible to make required changes. The 2257 law is a fact, and it is serious. But, to me the safety of my models is more important to me than giving away free sexually explicit content. It is my contention that the majority of our affiliates don't want to be required to keep records on my content, nor have they the time or resources to do so properly.
It is for these reasons, I am joining in with Steve, of Lightspeedcash... I was leaning towards this solution all along! However, I didn't want to be caught with my pants down and come out on the short end of the stick. As I stated above, my models privacy and safety comes first! So therefore, I WILL NOT RELEASE THEIR IDS TO WEBMASTERS. I agree with Steve of Lightspeed, There is a better solution for pineapplepink, our models, and our affiliates:

So, Effective June 23, 2005, Pineapplecash will no longer authorize affiliate use of OUR SEXUALLY EXPLICIT content to promote our sites. We recommend affiliates use text links and/or SOFTCORE thumbnail links to our HOSTED CONTENT wherever possible. Please take advantage of our hosted galleries! I have nearly 100 and none of them are really over exposed yet, and I'll be adding new one all the time. Hotlinking content or the use of IFRAMES will not be allowed. Simply link to us and let us worry about the documentation, as I have been keeping it since I began shooting adult content. This policy APPLIES TO EVERYONE, not just our US webmasters. I won't put our US webmasters at a disadvantage. This means if your a non US Webmaster and want to use our free content you must use non sexually explicit content. Failure to comply with this new requirement will result in the termination of your pineapplecash affiliate status, and the forfeiture of any outstanding earnings end of story.

I too, also make a request to the TGP and MGP owners to allow existing galleries to be modified to comply with the new 2257 requirements. We are all in this together. No one wants to lose their traffic or their revenue, but without bending the rules about modifying existing galleries, you will put yourselves and your submitters at
risk. Pineapplepink & pineapplecash is 100% committed to this industry and to our webmasters. We will be available to answer any and all affiliate questions and concerns. I know this solution will not please everyone, and I apologize now if you are inconvenienced by my decisions.

Always,

Denny
