OMG I'm finally satisfied
 

... and it's mostly thanks to BradM (my hero!). For nearly two weeks I've been trying to register here, as I'm a newbie webmaster and I thought this would be a good place to find tips and advice (and also general, irrelevent amusements), but somehow I never received my original verification email. Thanks to my bad timing, all of the mods have either been out of town or exceedingly busy, so I finally resorted to ICQing a couple of the members here who seemed to be fairly active and know what they were doing, and BradM was the one who finally walked me through some different options and eventually got me verified and posting... thanks!

So, if anyone is curious (or even cares), I am the nerdy newb behind Grim-Kitten.com, which is my own paysite that I've had for a little over a year. It's not very commercial, and I never intended it to be, but I wouldn't mind if it brought in more income so I thought I'd hang out here and see what new things I can learn (I've also been checking out some online tutorials). I've been doing nearly everything myself (including taking my own photos with the timer on my camera... I'm not such a great photogrpaher) and learning as I go, so it's easy for me to miss stuff that everyone else and their dog knows.

I'm not coming here totally empty-handed... there's a fully illustrated lingerie dictionary on the free side of my site that might be useful to people that know what they like but don't know what it's called (handy if you want to tell a model what to bring to a shoot, maybe?). I'm currently updating the dictionary with new illustrations (the current ones are so old...) and twice as many definitions, but it will take some time, since I'm drawing them myself. There's also some clip art and such that is free to use on anyone's non-commercial site. Mostly I'm a big dork, though, so my site won't be so interesting unless you're a big dork, too. =P

Anyway, that's my intro... I'm glad to finally be here, and I hope to learn a lot.

/t MissGrim Hey! =p

What's this about anyway? I'm guessing you don't want to show your cooch, but what's the point of starting a paysite if you're not going to show it? :2 cents:

Hey miss Grim :) you ICQ'ed me earlier... welcome to the board

That's kind of like saying what's the point of being a stripper if you don't want to do toy shows in a peep booth? Everyone has their own personal limits about what they're willing to do, and there are some things I'd rather not show in public. Also, there are some people who like to go to a paysite occasionally where the photos are less graphic, especially people who have more conservative significant others that they like to browse the site with. Personally, I'm satisfied with showing as much as I do, and there are a million other places that people can go to see more than that (and I'm happy to refer those people when they email me).

That is not to say that I don't appreciate more explicit photography and videos, though... when I look for porn, I'm looking for everything from clothed pin-up photography to hard-core group videos. I'm very glad that there are people with different personal boundaries, or else I myself would have little to look at.

Thanks for the welcome... I hope you found a good printer for your business cards. =D

Well that's cool. Just an FYI though, you'll lose tons of sales because of that. :2 cents:

It's good to see girls like you here. We've been needing some fresh faces.

You mean I won't lose tons of sales because I detail how I play Dungeons & Dragons and live in an attic with six cats? =P

Well, that too :) But I'm not sure entirely, psychology of the surfer is odd no doubt. They might just see you as being more like someone who's obtainable and realistic, and buy more. I guess you would know best.

welcome to the board:winkwink:

welcome! i know the feeling

welcome to GFY :)

hahaha
