Pros:
- Website seemed to be up every time I checked the first day or two before I stopped visiting
- Download managers were sort of allowed
- Let’s see… Um… There’s a link to support that links to the cancellation page?
Cons:
- IMMEDIATE ADDITIONAL ATTEMPTS TO CHARGE CARD USED FOR SUBSCRIBING
- Highly rated TBP site that, when you pay for a subscription, is horrible in reality and something you would’ve found bad back in 2003 or so
- Half the download links don’t work. That’s not an exaggeration. If you happen to run across a set that offers video and not just photos, there is usually a high and low option. The low option NEVER worked in any download attempt of different sets.
- Those photos mentioned just now? They’re in .zip files, which could be a “pro” I guess. Except they’re tiny. Most that I saw were 10-15mb, with a couple dozen images in the file.
Bottom Line:
I gave 5 points to the lowest possible score just so it would be seen that it wasn't a knee-jerk reaction to such a poor site. The five points are for photos being available in zip files, download managers working for two or three consecutive downloads, and... And... Well, let's just go with those two. I'm reaching already, and I'd give it a 35 or so if it was an option.
Now back to the bottom line:
A laughably bad website that should be avoided at all costs. And if you don’t it could cost you additional costs, so “avoid at all costs” is the easiest path. That’s not just something funny to write. The moment I signed up and the initial charge went through, and additional charge was attempted for a different amount. I had not agreed to any additional options at signup. Scummy, scummy, scummy.
There are 50-ish pages when you choose to show the entire network with ten links on each. Once you get past the most recent 20 or so there are only photo options.
I guess the models are exclusive, but who cares when it looks like something you’d find for free back in 2000-2003 when you’d hit image aggregator sites like the Hun (remember those)? It’s that level of quality, and you can find much better just knocking around online in basic searches. If you’re into this sort of stuff you’re much better off just browsing tube sites and free image offerings. Trust me, none of the sets on this website are worth the cost or trouble, even if you're a completionist hoping to find some rare jewel. You’re going to kick yourself if you join it. It’s bad.
BUT, if visiting awful 2000-2003 *websites* about this sort of thing that will also try to charge additional amounts to your credit card in the hopes that you’re too embarrassed to contact your card company are your fetish, this site is highly recommended.
However, if that very strange and specific fetish of losing money while looking at 20 year old website design isn’t yours, avoid this like the plague.
Mentioned in the cons section, but there are lots of broken download links. It doesn't really matter because you will give up paying attention to the site after the first day or two anyway, but it should be mentioned.
And WTF PornUsers / TBP? This site is rated 91 and it’s awful. Not only awful, but scammy and scummy and outright practicing theft that has been noted by multiple PU members.

Pros:
- Some of the sites cater to unique fetishes
- Access to a network of 6 shemale sites
- Zip downloads of photo sets
- Content is exclusive
- No DRM
Cons:
- HD videos are not really HD
- Not much content. To be fair it's a brand new site.
- Picture rez should be better.
- Membership price of $34.95 is expensive considering the amount of content
Bottom Line:
Tranny pack is a network of 6 shemales sites, brought to you by the same people who do Only Tgirls. This is a new site, it just started in July of 2009, so it's still small. There are a grand total of 31 scenes, with accompanying photo shoots. There is a page for upcoming updates so this site will grow. The content is decent, it mostly consists of the same cast of Brazilian girls this company always uses, except for the black girls.
The first three I listed are pretty standard fare, but the last three are fetish sites. TS Latex focuses on shemales in latex, probably the only site featuring that niche. The scenes in Shemale Punisher involve 4 or 5 trannies dominating a single guy. There are tranny S&M sites out there, but I've never seen one do it with a group of girls this size. Finally Tranny Edge is about one or two guys dominating a tranny.
The best quality videos are 960x540(3200kbps) wmv's. That is a problem. They advertise HD, and I don't think that is quite HD. The vids don't look bad, but I think everyone would agree with me that there is no excuse for a brand new site not having at least 720p. They also have a "DVD Quality" wmv and low quality mpeg. You can choose between full scene downloads or split into clips in all three formats.
The images are only 680x1024. Again, I expect bigger images coming from a site that just opened its doors in July of 2009. Anyway, they do have Zip file downloads as well as hands free slideshows. The photos are actual still photograps, not screen caps. They look okay and the photography is pretty good, they just need a greater resolution.
One way this network could improve would be to add an asian/ladyboy site, but there are enough of those sites out there to go around. I just think it might round out the content. I'm also not sure about the update schedule, it's all over the place. The do add multiple updates every week, but how often and on what days? This could be a decent site for people who this type of content really appeals to. But do not join yet there is just not enough content at this time. I personally don't think I would join again anyway, the fetish stuff doesn't do much for me.

Pros:
- Exclusive Content.
- No DRM Protection.
- Mostly South American models that vary in fame, you get your favs and some newbies.
- Great, high def movies available in WMV and MPG format plus streaming. (WMV High Def at 1280 x 720, 5088 kbps) (MPGS at 848 x 480 and 544 x 304) (Streams at 848 X 480).
- Good, crisp pictures available in two formats and in zips for easy downloads (1360 X 913 and 850 X 571).
- Free Bonus loyalty sites (up to 4 others) after one month of being a member that are all shemale orientated.
- Simple design with easy navigation.
- Bonus movies and picture sets that are not exclusive to this site.
- A few interviews and behind the scenes movies available for download as seperate files from the other movies.
- Average active forum.
- Model Index and search functions with 44 different tag categories.
- Updates come often at every friday, weekly and are full strip to masterbation videos.
Cons:
- Picture sets are just accompyning shoots that are almost identical to the video scenes (same outfits and locations).
- The photographer has a food fetish thing going on (more in bottom line).
- While being masterbation scenes, the variance is non existant and can get a bit repetitive.
- 3-4 GB Download limit that's quite erratic (more in bottom line).
Bottom Line:
This site offers known and up n' coming shemale models with solo masterbation scenes and sets. It is very similar in format to the other SheMax (company) sites when it comes to design and layout. The design is bright and pleasant which provides very easy navigation to find and get all the content. However, getting the content is a bit of a burden. While there is a download limit at a suppossed 4 GB which is not provided in writing anywhere (info came from customer service), the limit is not on a 24 hour schedule. I don't know when they reset the limit, but I have downloaded again before and after my 24 limit happened and all types of different sizes of data. So, some days I can download like 3.9 GB, wait 24 hours, and can only download like 2.5 GB. It's a strange and frustrating thing and I really dislike it.
Now, while getting the content is a bit of a quirk, what you are getting is quite well. The videos are in a great bitrate and res with some above average camera work. There is no chitter chatter or intervention between the camera man and model which is great news. There are quality long shots and close ups. The scenes start with the model clothed, a strip tease, then masterbation till cumshot (unless otherwise stated). However, the photographer really likes the models to play with all kinds of food. So, expect a lot of chocolate slathered on them, playing with veggies, fruit, and so on. Not every scene is like this, but a lot are and this stuff is just stupid to me. I do like interaction with props in solo masterbation scenes, but the food thing gets a bit redundant. The locations and the outfits do vary a bit with showers, outside areas, to the classic bed. But, being a masterbation site, the content can get a bit repetitive because nothing quite new is being done here from the other sites (besides a lot of food play). So, the format will rarely switch up but I suppose you do know what you are getting every Friday, right? There are quite a bit of videos at 105 at the time of this review.
The picture sets are well done but like most sites, are just accompyning shoots that are almost identical to the video scenes. Being in a decent size and quality, they would be a superior section if they could switch it up a bit. But, they do come in easy zip format with 2 options. Since they accompany the videos, they are the same at 105 sets at the time of this review.
The bonus stuff is well enough. While you get 13 interviews and 6 behind the scenes, they are whatever in my opinion. The Behind the scenes are bout 1-2 minutes long and include bloopers or extra footage while the interviews are short as well, averaging 2 minutes long. However, they do have extra non exclusive movies and photo sets. There are 6 movies that are primarily solo scenes and 183 photo sets of individual models.
This site is an adequete price with TBP discount for a month's stay. You do get more sites the longer you stay and they are quite good. I'd recommend it.
