    Future of Magazine Style Site Designs

    The future of magazine style site designs.

    Most of you should be familiar with these type of sites of by now, examples: Met-Art, Hegre-Art, MC-Nudes, Watch4Beauty and so many more similar types.....

    Theses examples create photo set issues capturing the look of a magazine style issue.

    What about taking this approach to the next level. Such as designing a site to resemble the look and feel of a magazine. Take a look at this example.

    websitemagazine.com/scripts/sub/digital.aspx?issue=1

    What are you opinions on this. Do you feel this type of approach could work in the adult industry as a pay-site, or do you see flaws that could present potential problems? Thank you all!

      I dunno if it's just me, but I feel more frustrated sitting at a "Page loading xx%" status notice rather than actually seeing the content rendering as it's downloaded.

      I'm not sure the "turn the page" navigation method would work when a set could have 50 or 100 images.

          It's an interesting concept, I would skim through some magazines like that for sure, not sure if I would watch porn in that manner, but i guess its something so new to me that I'm simply not used to it ;).
          As everything else, anything has a potential, I'm thinking this project has more potential in mainstream than anything else. I would try to to get some attention to it from Forbes, Wired, Times, etc.
          Good luck!

              eh wack if you ask me.

              something like iJoomla that has a magazine like presentation is probably more of a way to go.

                  If there was more text like an interview then it may work, but FEMJOY and the like really only have a basic description of the set. Also, how do you interview a popular model 20-30 times?

                  I have a pet hate for flash based sites anyway, because they break the standard browser navigation interface On the above site if you turn the page then click back, you end up at the previous site.

                      Yeah interesting, been tried plenty of times, but its going backwards using a magazine based layout when the internet has so much more to offer. Why revert back to a format which can only display 20 or so shots from a set when the internet has 'magazines' that allow you to browse thousands of images with a few clicks?

                      & yeah, like Rowan said, the browser has its own navigation - sites that try to reinvent the wheel often just end up making it harder to find what you need.

                              I would have to only make an assumption that the load time of the site would be a day and forever, especially on dial up.

                                  meh, it's cool and all and an interesting idea. but i don't think it's very "usable" or the future of anything.

                                      For a paysite I am not crazy about it but I dont know why real magazines are not putting their old and current issues online using this type of display. They could charge $30 a month for access to all the old issues.
