Kevsh, just sent off an email to you I thought i'd post the Q/A for everyone that might have the same questions. Maybe it will spawn more questions The more info i'm able to provide all you guys the better



Q: Is it just for the software (and I have to get my own server, Flash server, etc.)? Or is this a hosted solution?


A: Our pricing is for the software. The software is then hosted on your server. Flash Media Server can be purchased outright from Macromedia or leased at very affordable prices from companies such as http://www.influxis.com/ .

Q: How does it integrate with payment systems?


A: Our software uses a credits system. A customer purchases credits and then those credits are deducted by the second. A credits system is the best option for preventing chargebacks as well as taking advantage of the theory of unused credits like on a gift card. We can take care of the integration of the payment processor for you. All major adult billing companies can be used.


Q: If it wouldn't be too much trouble, can you say exactly what must be provided by the purchaser (for example, once the package is purchased what do i have to do on my end to get it up and running - besides getting performers obviously!).


A: You will need a server or servers that can handle PHP/MYSQL and Flash Communication Server or Flash Media Server. Flash Media Server runs on Linux and Windows systems. It does not run on FreeBSD. For optimal performance, 2 servers can be a great option. A windows one for FlashMediaServer and a freebsd or linux for PHP/MYSQL components. If you need performers, we have contacts with a number of studios as well that can help you out with populating your camsite

Q: I assume I can "seamlessly" upgrade to other packages once more performers are added?

A: Yes, its just a matter of us giving you a different license key for your specific server. Our license keys only work on the server(s) you provide for installation. Upgrade your key to 20, 50, unlimited performers...thats all there is to it!

Q: Lastly, in terms of customization, how does this work - is the customization limited to replacing images or access to the site template or actual page code? I ask because if I want to integrate some additional features onto the site, I need to know what is involved or if it's possible. (Some examples: Adding additional info or "fields" for performers in their profile, creating categories/niches -- Blondes, Fetish, etc., cleaning up the Model Gallery/Profile page designs, only showing the Chat buttons if she's online ... these general kind of things)

A: Anything and everything can be modified. Customizations are billed at $35/hr. For those wanting to customize long term, we recommend taking a good hard look at our Open Source License. It is a significant cost at 20k , but it provides full source code of the script. You can open up 20 different sites with it if you want. Do in-house customizations...the sky is the limit. You just cant resell it.





If anyone has more questions...post away!
