Started in 1992 assisting for J. Stephen Hicks. Began shooting for Club, High Society and Gallery Magazines soon after. I co-designed DigitalDreamgirls.com (now Digital Desire) before I left in 2000 to run my own studio and set up Danni's Hard Drive's studio.

1994 working with an audiotext company, (900 and 976 numbers). Then picked up an online delivery system from a company called Virtual Dreams out of Vegas. People were sending us checks and money orders through the mail, until we got a merchant account through First Bank of Beverly Hills. They had no idea what the internet was, so they gave us a card swipe machine. People would BBS their card numbers to us, we would punch it in the swipe machine, and then BBS back a password. I left in 1996, to run a large call center, then moved to Miami in 1999 and got back in the business with one of the new (at that time) automated gateway card processors, and 99% of our transactions were in adult. They went down in 2003 and I went on my own.

Rockbottomcontent.com? When we all became experts on Eastern Block wallpaper? :1orglaugh

The other day, I found a Web Legal contract in my files. I remember going through those to see if I was allowed to use the content on TGPS or not. Kids today are spoiled. :)

Did some free sites in 97 but didn't get really into the biz until 2001.

billywatson 04-17-2014 12:01 PM

I submitted my first gallery in '98, and took my first nudie pic (using a Sony Mavica writing to 3.5" floppies) in '99.

Horny Dude 04-17-2014 02:02 PM

Been in the game since 1999, maybe early 2000. Was building AVS site with CyberAge and making $$$. Miss those days; build, submit, link, sleep, repeat.

I had one of those. We used to do public nudity stuff, and it was like "click", ok wait 8 seconds for this one to write, "click", all while the girl was standing naked on a street.

Soon afterward, we "upgraded" to the Mavica that used the little mini CDs. We would generally lose about 10% of our photos for one reason or another... most just wouldn't complete the write transfer.

The good old days...

Most were to young to handle the money and dropped out with a nasty coke habit.

started selling online in 2003. Prior to that, started circa 1991 bulk buying vhs tapes and selling them on for profit. Very small time though, and on & off for beer money (though I drank a fucking LOT lol).

regged my first domain in 97 and built what became a well known teen tgp at the time getting around 120k uv and 1200 submissions a day. Built many AC sites in that time before moving on to paysites in 2000.

Nice edit... no sign of edit either. I'm fairly certain you mentioned starting a bunch of big name programs the first time around.

Good thread though... so I'm out from title. 2008 start, fucked a lot prior if that counts. Actually, fucked a lot more in college, my wife got in the way after that.

Great Thread!

I have been slinging porn online since 1995.
My affiliate program www.HowIgotRich.com started in 1999.

Millions have been paid out to Adult Webmasters...
Payments still go out twice a month like clockwork.

Here's to the next 15 years! :drinkup

candyflip 05-11-2014 12:01 PM

Started submitting galleries in '99, down to some mobile stuff and that's about it.

Before that I had purchased media for one of the largest telephone dating and chat services in the country.

Wouldn't mind getting into shooting, as I'm just about finished with BS in Digital Cinematography.
