Dear Playboy ::: - GoFuckYourself.com

DeanCapture · 08-13-2008, 03:18 PM

Dear Playboy....I've had a subscription to Playboy.com for years now. I pull it up a few times a week hoping to be inspired by your photography & videography work. Today I found myself skipping over many of the galleries because it's mostly poop. The only time I actually open up a gallery and look around anymore is when it's shot by Arny Freytag, Stephen Wayda or one of your newer shooters Jarmo Pohjaniemi. Jarmo brings a bit of fresh air to the Playboy brand. The rest of the galleries are disappointing at best...with very little production value.

It's sad that a company this size with 3 of the top glam shooters in the world can't update their site more frequently with "quality" material from these shooters. But instead you decided to rely on less experienced shooters and lower budgets for filler content.

Playboy, please take some pride in your business and showcase more material from your top shooters. Save the low budget bread-n-butter stuff for your other sites. Playboy.com should be your flagship site - with the best looking content utilizing your most skilled content producers. What are you guys thinking over there?

I agree with him but I'm not sure anyone at GFY will send the message along to those who really matter at Playboy. Didn't Playboy stock just take a huge hit recently?

AllStar · 08-13-2008, 04:25 PM

ha ha ha love it.

Socks · 08-13-2008, 04:26 PM

bwahahhaa.. Dean, I'd like you to PROVE you have a subscription to playboy.com and aren't just making this shit up to stir shit.. :P

Wouldn't you do better with a subscription to Met-Art or Femjoy or Hegre-Art anyways?

Those are great sites. What about Twisty's too? Seriously, with Playboy's branding and resources they should be the best and I think with the power of their brand people expect them to be the best. The word "filler" has no right to be put next to Playboy, wouldn't you think?

First Issue:

Dean don't go gettin banned again dude.
C-mon.

I get my Playboy here also and I think the photography is excellent and on par with the times. The trick to Playboy is the girls they shoot. Many no one has heard of and then bang guys like you eat em alive afterwards desperatly trying to get the girls agent so you can shoot em next.

Playboy has broke out more than quite a few of todays modern glam site girls and for the most part do an excellent job at keeping the quality of girl up and the photography up in quality at the same time without fail.

So why do ya wait for Playboy to shoot em first if you think the photography does not do a girl service?

Hey how's it going Socks? I didn't see you in Miami were you there?

Dean definitely has a playboy subscription. He's a student of the game. That's why Dean has been able to differentiate himself from everybody else. He studies his competition and the leaders in his field and then he learns and gets inspired from it. Met-Art and FemJoy really aren't the niche and market Dean shoots. He shoots Glam and the bar was set by Playboy and they still have some of the finest photographers in the world. So studying them is definitely worthwhile.

I think he means the Cyber Club, as opposed to the magazine.

Yooooooooo, honestly we lost our programmer bad timing, and still some hiccups, getting a new guy up to speed. Just wasn't ready in time.

I guess the common denominator is quality, but sure, certainly huge difference between glam and just natural nude photography. I didn't mean to say Playboy was a bad choice, but also for ideas I think looking at something similar yet different might spur creativity too, even more. Kind of sad to see lots of people ignoring the photos now that videos more dominant, but then again it just lends credibility to the better photographers too and funnels/concentrates the customers to the good stuff.

I should have another look at Playboy.com, I used to go there quite a bit when it was $8.95 a month for their Cyberclub site, I didn't think they really had a world-class websites at this point, and were concentrating on the fresh faces multi site model. I think we rated Playboy Plus pretty highly.

Baby getting big or what? My guy is huge now, it's out of control!

DeanCapture · 08-13-2008, 04:51 PM

Did I say anything in that post that would warrant a ban? I mean...it wouldn't surprise me if I got banned - you can get banned for just about anything depending on how the mods are feeling that day

My post was friendly, thoughtful, professional and most of all....just an opinion. I know there are some Playboy execs who read this board so I threw out an opinion - why is that so bad? I could have kissed their ass and told them what a terrific job that they are doing over there but instead I decided to be honest about it.

If that's a banable offense, maybe I'll see you guys next year

I'm sure there are Playboy execs who frequent this board. Not that anyone would take notice of anything that I would say, but at least I feel better knowing that I got it off my shoulders.

Like Shap said, Playboy set the bar when it comes to Glamour Photography and I think sometimes Playboy fails to realize that many of the members of their site(s) are not people who are there to jerk their monkey. Some are actually there to see what the "big player" in the industry is doing with their content. There are only 3 shooters at Playboy who motivate and inspire me to reach for something higher and the downside is that although Playboy.com is updated each day, the updates that include their really good shooters are not as frequent as I would like

ladida · 08-13-2008, 05:52 PM

Lol, you sure have temper problems.

You also have the same poses/feel of the shoot everytime i saw you post anything. I fail to see what was the point.

This is actually quite harder slam you put on them then the last time you got banned. You can play you dont realise it, you're not that dumb, neither are they. Only depends how much bro power you have.
