MaDalton,

He loves it, he only does it to wind people up, he'll be laughing reading this thread right now. This is his hobby, seeing how many people bite onto his wind-up threads. People fall for it every time.

David Koch (the guy in the pic), has the same effect on me too! But what has Kochie got to do with Paul Markham?

[scarlettcontent]

[ArsewithClass]

Yet another Markham thread, I suppose I should feel privileged that it's not always me that's being crucified

He is a great producer that's take film & photos for years.... why can't everyone just enjoy being on GFY or is this GFY?

Nope, not just you, we ALL get it a little. It wouldn't be GFY if we didn't fuck with each other. It's love man!

Nothing else to say but

[BittieBucks]

Paul Markham revolutionised things back when most of us couldnt even hold a camera... he paved the way for us to make our fortunes out of the porn industry... he was ahead of his time, a real pioneer... we should worship this man, not chastise him...

To walk in his shadow is all a man can hope for, to be half as good as PM makes you twice as good as most men... He is a god amongst men, a warrior... he know's no fear and invites trial and tribulation to dare darken his light...

Long live the curly 70's styled porn... long live the dark sith lord Markham...

And yes I was very drunk when I wrote this

yeah, don't get me wrong, i like Paul, he once helped us to find the right way back in 2003 and sometimes we meet for a coffee here in Brno.

but i also think (and told him in person) that i think he's wrong with many things he posts over and over again and everyone else sees that too and it's not helping him.

But Paul, i said it before, if you're only trolling let me know - i will leave you alone then

Chill with holding the camera, lol i prefer using my panasonic I can hold it at any angle, I even hold it above the girls while im standing a metre away... Aim & shoot, like a gun

But yes, this guy was doing porn before lots of us so first thing is give him credit, second is shut up with the mocking

Not to your good self btw

[Mutt]

i think Paul enjoys all this - he's retired so he's not losing any money by his activities here.

i don't think you're gonna make a 61 or whatever years old retired guy who survived cancer and has a young wife and daughter cry because you call his content shitty or him a washed up troll.

[signupdamnit]

I can't say I agree with everything he says or even most of it but two points.

1. He's not really hurting anyone but himself.
2. I can't help but feel if Paul Markham were declared dictator over porn 10 years ago we'd all be making 100 times the money we do now (Manwin excluded!).

Well, no doubt about that since many of us said it... and I don't remember Paul saying anything. He started his crusade 2 years ago at most, when it's impossible to get the shit back inside the dog Unlike Paul, many of us actually TRIED something

For some background:
https://gfy.com/showthread.php?t=1034304&highlight=tgp2

and a proposed solution:
https://gfy.com/showthread.php?t=1034438

that is action over real specific problems. Paul cries over spilt milk and has never proposed anything, just cry and annoy everybody

He doesnt declare himself dictator, he's defensive to those that crucify him for being a producer & he isn't hurting anyone because he's a nice guy, it's everyone else that's hurting him

The year is 2013 and after expertly navigating himself and his followers through nearly a decade of adult industry turmoil, and backed by the deep pockets of the Romanian mafia, an ex-photographer out of Prague by the name of Saul Darkham has left all challengers in the dust to become the allmighty King of Porn.

Well, you are a pointless idiot that just posts dribble. You're not worthy of a thread to yourself.

Paul is a master troll that, even though everyone KNOWS he is trolling, they still reply. That is some skill. Paul pretends to be stupid to wind people up. You actually ARE stupid.

You're a nobody.

I'm not hurting myself. I'm retired and still taking money online. All be it smaller than it was.

If I was dictator of online porn some would be making 100 times more, some wouldn't be in the business and even Manwin would be doing a lot better.

The idea of creating a poor to medium product and giving it away for free. To create a ratio of sales that were always appalling and now a complete disaster is obviously not the way to run any industry, online of off.

Spending the levels online porn did on giving it away strapped them into a downward spiral. Only kept up by the increase in online connections. Today we see the effects.

Madalton. All you told me was people were making less shooting custom BG than we were making non exclusive solo girl.

Maybe in 1999 we should of upped ship and moved back to the UK to create a modern version of Astral Blue. Maybe we should of just created a TGP site. Problem was moving was a big risk, would of lost the revenue we had from shooting Czech girls. Opening a TGP site, yes that was a mistake.

Opening a site with Czech girls whose command of English was crap to non existent. Not a chance. Coming back today and doing it with girls like Sandra, not worth the trouble. Advising others on how to create a far better product, no they only want advice on how to get a cheaper product they can throw more traffic at.

I have spoken to many site owners who agreed with my comments on their content. They just didn't think it important enough to change, or not able to.

How long has Marc Dorcel been around? His films are excellent.

Vivid is also still releasing high quality content on a regular basis.

[seeandsee]

Paul is best, thread where he posts are always busy

[Cherry7]

There are several problems with Paul Markham...


1) He thinks his material is great and sees no faults.

2) Thinks what anyone else does is rubbish

3) Lies

4) ignores points he does not understand and then repeats the same again and again. Like ratios.

5) dominates the discussion with thousands of posts till people lose the will to live.

6) interesting discussion is swamped with stupidity.

7) He is uneducated and does not want to learn, he thinks you cannot learn from books.

8) His little experience he had from taking the same set of photos over and over again for magazines has given him an over inflated opinion of his skills, it has to be remembers that photographers with real skills were working for mainstream magazines where real photographic knowledge was called for.


One would think that after that terrible video for Nathen he would be a bit more modest...

I remember Marc Dorcel from the early 90s. He might of been around earlier.

There are loads of companies releasing good quality porn on DVD. Didn't mention loads of them.

How do they manage to stay in business without doing business online and only being wholesale?

2) Thinks what anyone else does is rubbish There a lots of better shooters than me, just not you.

3) Lies Got me on that one.

4) ignores points he does not understand and then repeats the same again and again. Like ratios. Which I'm right on, ratios are getting worse.

5) dominates the discussion with thousands of posts till people lose the will to live. So why are you still posting so I can take the piss out of you?

6) interesting discussion is swamped with stupidity. So don't post and the stupidity will go.

7) He is uneducated and does not want to learn, he thinks you cannot learn from books. I've learned a lot over the years, just not from failures like you.

8) His little experience he had from taking the same set of photos over and over again for magazines has given him an over inflated opinion of his skills, it has to be remembers that photographers with real skills were working for mainstream magazines where real photographic knowledge was called for. It was about making money.


One would think that after that terrible video for Nathen he would be a bit more modest... For a terrible shooter seemed to have lasted a very long time. But you still think I'm a photographer, why is that? I never claimed to be one.

I tore you apart on B&B. Want me to do the same here?

OK then.

The samples on your site are a mush mash, some look like they were shot by someone with a clue, some look they were shot by you. The amateur ones.

I've seen your stills work and you have nothing to teach me.

Seriously what is erotic about this? What's with the stupid look on her face.
And don't tell me I don't understand that's a stupid excuse. Explain what it means.



Amateur, you left in the appendix scar and spots. No where near professional work.



Again a girl with a stupid look on her face, stupid isn't erotic. Badly cropped don't crop like this, it shows amateur photographer all the time. As for the pose, it's wrong. Left leg should be the forward one not the right leg, the girl should twist slightly at the waist to emphasise her ear. At least she's dipping her spine. The right arm detracts from her breasts, should be away from her breast to emphasise them.



You seem to have a thing about bad cropping and posing. I suppose it's the amateur coming out in you. It's again a poor pose, been done a million times before and better. Bring the pussy forward a touch, get the dress hem on the girls right out of the shot, get a better expression on her face. Pull the left hand strap off her shoulder. Use the natural light better. Drag the bench away from the bush and have someone with a mirror reflect the sun onto her head.



Amateur





The video sample here isn't bad, but to chopped up to give an impression good or bad. http://www.cinemaerotique.com/mov_theneighbour.html

Bog standard porn people have been shooting for decades. http://www.cinemaerotique.com/mov_happyend.html

Again bog standard and nothing special, girl in a shower soaping herself, 2 on a bed. done a million times. Show us something special, put one piece of erotica on your site that works.

This is erotica shot by professionals and your stuff isn't any thing like erotic. Go and learn and read more books. Properly shot, moody, in a great location, properly directed, lit and everything else. In other words professional erotic film making. Your stuff is shot on a small budget with smaller knowledge and abilities.

I know it's like trying to teach a dog maths, but at least I tried.

Didn't take her underwear off early enough, didn't shave herself prior to the shoot and the pose is wrong. The rump behind the pussy is wrong. Spots and moles again!!!



You shot this with a very cheap bedside cabinet and lamp in the background. Cropped off the head of the girl looking at you, the girl is looking at you and they don't seem to be looking at each other, the erotic content in the picture is 0. Porn 0. Or do you think out of focus makes it erotic?



Your problem is being clueless. Your work is bad, not even medium, it's full of little mistakes. You might have a lot of book knowledge, but that's where it ends. In a book.

I sure hope I have better hobbies when im retired. Writing walls of text daily on GFY and getting laughed at is not something I look forward to

Very impressive.

Another person Cherry could learn a lot from.

Cherry's problem is he doesn't have the budget to produce his ideas. Very obvious from his settings. They don't exactly inspire eroticism.

Roald I have other hobbies, going to make a cup of tea and read from my new Ebook.

Then take my daughter to scouts.

LOL well said ROALD. Geez Paul arent you a little old to act like a spoiled lil kid on a lousy aduly message board. And really who cares if some pics arent cropped correctly or a scar was left or other details. If a surfer likes a girl in a pic and is jerking off to it, do you really think he will stop because the pic isnt cropped to your professional specifications. Geez, if youre retired.. be retired.
