Wittyguy's Review
"You need to upgrade to see all the older / oldest content they have." (Wittyguy)
Can you give more details on this please? I recently joined Twistys for two reasons - Justine Joli and Amber Michaels peeing. I found what I was looking for. I also heard that Twistys had more peeing content than this in the past, but I could not find it. Support blew off my request for help.

I was sort of a member of the sites girl-e-girls.com and sweet-e-girls.com when they closed down. They were photography sites with French models from the early 2000's by a photographer who went by Rafik. I downloaded everything that I wanted in my month of membership, then cancelled. I noticed that they were rotating content, so I was a little disappointed that I couldn't get everything possible in that time. I tried to contact the webmaster about it, but I got no reply. Instead, when I re-visited the site to see the previews of the shoots that had rotated back in, I noticed that my login was still active. I double checked, and I was not getting any rebills, but the login just stayed active indefinitely. So I got to keep access for long enough for all of their shoots to rotate through, and then the sites went down.
I was also once a member of a site when they announced that they were forced to remove about 1/3 of their content, including most of their peeing shoots, by their payment processor Verotel and VISA. I was beyond upset for so much great porn to be taken down just a day before I would download it. The webmaster was unreachable. In one last ditch effort, I noticed that while the links to those shoots were gone from the site, the URLs were predictable for all of them, and I was able to get them all anyway because they were still on the server! There was a huge thrill to it that came from recovering something great that had been discarded and was otherwise fated to be lost.
The funny thing about porn is, you sometimes really don't know what you've got until it's gone. We've all seen posts here from users who tossed some VHS or DVDs or deleted content from some sites, only to regret it deeply later when that content is rare and unavailable anywhere.
It's a cliche among artists that works of art don't approach their fullest value until after the artist is dead. There will be no new works, and the number available to collectors will only decrease. It's too bad that the same isn't true of porn, and that there isn't an established marketplace where owners of content from sites that have closed can sell content at a large premium to dedicated collectors. I've taken it on myself to make this type of purchase a number of times, but I feel I'm largely alone in buying rare porn at a premium when your average guy just goes for the free stuff.

Any natural expression that is not obviously faked. A smile is great, but models should not try too hard if it is not there.

Vomit and scat do nothing for me, but pee is a huge turn on. Great poll by the way, it's always a good and interesting topic when you can get a 50%/50% split in responses vs a question that everyone can agree on.

This site offers very little for your money, and has gotten worse rather than better over the years. It is actually the bare minimum to avoid being called an overt scam, but I feel scammed nonetheless by paying a regular price for such poor content.
-8 photosets
-13 videos
Abbey Brooks is a hot model, but her site has been decimated by poor ownership over the years. |
| Cons: |
This site has been nothing but a disappointment and a waste of money.
AbbeyBrooks.com may have been great under it's original ownership, but I will never know for sure. What I can say is that, with 8 photosets and 13 videos, this site gives the bare minimum to say that they gave you something in exchange for your money. What bothers me even more is that this site seems like it once had tons of content, but removed almost all of it when it was acquired by new owners. |
| Bottom Line: |
If you go to the TGP pichunter.com you can find hundreds of promotional galleries posted by AbbeyBrooks.com under it's original owners. It is ironic that now, the amount of promotional content available from this site's heyday is orders of magnitude greater than the amount of content available in the member's section.
I am incredibly disappointed with this site, especially since it has suffered a near-total loss of content in it's member's section. This poor upkeep is made all the more shocking by who the site's new owners are. Supposedly it is part of the "OpenLife Network." However, if you scroll to the bottom of the page, you will see that "AbbeyBrooks.com is a site of Gamma Entertainment and its subsidiary Chargepay B.V."
Yes, this is the same company Gamma Entertainment that owns the DDF Network. How could they take such bad care of this site?
I contacted Gamma Support to ask about it. I also told Gamma Support that I would be reviewing the site, so if Gamma sees these comments here, it should not come as a surprise. I basically said, I'm a paying member, I saw a promotional shoot on a TGP that wasn't available on your site anymore, would you be able to send me a full copy? The shoot that I was interested in was the only promo shoot that featured her peeing. Not sure if it was the only peeing shoot she ever did. Anyway, the response that I received from Gamma Support was "we do not currently feature that type of content on our sites."
Oh, really. I pointed out that Gamma owns DDF which produces some of the best peeing shoots online, and I received no reply. I know DDF reads this forum, so if you happen to see this, then know that this was totally remediable if not avoidable, if support had just even replied to my second email. I said up front that I would be reviewing the site, so what did you expect?
This touches on another issue relating to Gamma Entertainment and their ownership of the DDF Network. I hate to digress from AbbeyBrooks.com, and I hate to slam a network that touches on greatness, but I was told by DDF that certain major issues would be resolved in October. I have not brought attention to these issues yet here, and they seem to have been unnoticed so far, but I am losing hope that anything will ever be done.
I really hope that someone from OpenLife or Gamma can reply here. Please explain why you have reduced a site with many hundreds of shoots to 8 photosets and 13 videos. When marcdc1 reviewed the site in 2012 it had 36 photosets and 13 videos, and it had gone backwards since then. Before OpenLife acquired the site, it had hundreds of shoots. Also, the newtork of 15 sites included with membership in 2012 has shrunk to 8.
I don't know what is more troubling, that Gamma has done this to AbbeyBrooks.com, or that they own DDF, and some of the great porn there could likewise be lost some day, perhaps not too far from today. |

Usually support will explain things like this if you ask. Some sites allow model's to buy back the rights to their shoots if the models want them to be removed. This can cost a good amount, so models will sometimes have to save up for each shoot to be removed one by one. Anyway, I don't know if that is the case here, but just a guess.

I have never understood the motive for attacks like this. Who stands to gain by going to great lengths to bring a porn site down? Disgruntled competitors? Tech savvy puritans? Or hackers just looking to test their BotNet on an easy target? I have seen this happen to dozens of sites, and I just don't see the gain in it for the attackers.

Agreed. I have talked with DDF about their older scenes and that is my take as well, in fact, they should do some more re-mastering.

I knew guy once who had a lot of luck with AdultFriendFinder.com, but not because he was smooth, he was anything but smooth, its just that he had zero standards. As far as I could tell, all of his hook ups were hideous, and several were into shit like meth.
I have another friend who had a lot of luck finding dates and hook ups on the non-adult themed dating sites. That might be a better way to go.

| Pros: |
The unique and artistic nature of Richard Avery's photography and videos is the main selling point of this site. Call it "art porn," "erotica," "glam-fetish," "artistic nudes," or simply "art," it could hold it's own hanging on the walls or looped on the video projectors of some contemporary art museums. It is also actively updating with many beautiful and well known models. You will like this site if you like visually stimulating, innovative scenes featuring solo models. They also feature lots of "wet and messy" scenes. This includes lots of smeared makeup, spitting, paint, water, food play, and a small handful of great peeing scenes. For those curious, the peeing scenes feature Jade Vixen, Sophie Dee, Veronique Vasquez, Aiden Ashley, Bobbi Starr, Kaylynn, Nautica Thorn, Roxi Deville, Ruby Luster, Annika Amour, and Audrey Bitoni. You can get a good idea of what this site has to offer by just browsing the preview content available before joining.
-1328 photo sets
-688 videos |
| Cons: |
While the work of Richard Avery is amazing, the execution of the site leaves something to be desired.
-small photo-sets (15-25 photos)
-low resolution photos by modern standards (1500x1150)
-photos are grainy (have to assume this is intentional)
-videos are small (two sizes: 640x360, 480x288) and short (3-6 minutes) |
| Bottom Line: |
Richard Avery is certainly an amazing photographer and videographer, and I would highly recommend checking out his site to see his unique work. As I browsed through his shoots, I was thoroughly impressed, and I just need to say "thank you!" to Richard Avery for continuing to produce this amazing work over the years. This site has so much potential, but I could not give it the high score that I was hoping it would earn. This is for several reasons, but primarily the resolution of the content. It may have been medium to high resolution in 2006 when the first shoots came out, but now 8 years have gone by, and the resolution has not been increased. They are still putting out new content, but they must be bringing the resolution down to 1500x1150 in post-production, which does not make any sense in today's market. When I join a contemporary site with artistic nudes, I expect excellent technical quality including resolution, and the resolution is lacking here. Also, there is grainyness that is so coarse and prominent in some shoots that I have to assume it is intentional. I see how it gives the shoots a gritty feel, but it is just not to my personal liking. Grainyness is an accidental feature of so much mediocre porn that it is a big pet peeve of mine.
Richard Avery's work is so amazing, that it actually makes the resolution issue more annoying than ever. If a site with mediocre content has mediocre resolution, that is to be expected. Great content, on the other hand, should be presented well. This is like going to an art museum, seeing some priceless works of art, but being roped off 50 feet away, leaving you unable to see the details.
Enough about my frustrations with the site though, and back to what makes Richard Avery's work so great. He makes very dramatic use of light, dark, and color in his composition. He will frequently make deliberate use of saturated highlights, and sometimes lowlights, to accent his scenes, and this is a technique that I really love. Avery and Frannie Adams were the two photographers who have made the best use of this technique in artistic fetish nudes, and now that Frannie has left the scene, Avery is the undisputed champion. Even with the resolution being what it is, I cannot help but highly recommend this site. |

I also think it's going to be about 50%. Going back through my collection, about 50% of the sites online in 2005 are still online now, so I figure history tends to repeat itself.

My collection totals about 9.5 Tb. It's got enough rare stuff in it, including copies of some sites that I tried for years to find, that I take backups seriously. I back it up in duplicate, one backup at home, and one off site. So that comes to nine 4Tb hard drives. It sounds costly, but it's cheap compared to the time and money I put into my collection.

This is a good story. So before my wife and I were married, we lived together, but I was not open with her about porn. We actually lived together for several years without her knowing. Then one day, I was looking at some porn, not just any porn, but amateur peeing pics. I heard her walking to my office, so I tried to close out and switch users, but my PC was hanging up, so I closed the screen out of desperation as she was walking in. She knew she had caught me up to something, so she asked me if it was gay porn (which is great if you like that), or something actually sick like animals, or worse. I knew I was busted, and she kept asking to see, so I just showed her. Much to my surprise, she was happy and relieved, and she said, "I will do that for you." Damn, my head was spinning. I thought I was busted, and next thing I know, my fantasies are coming true.
So, since then, I started to be open with her about porn, and she wanted to see what it was all about, so she started watching it herself. Now, she watches porn more or less daily, just like me. Unlike me though, she just watches tube videos, and she doesn't download and save stuff. She'll call me over to watch something good when she finds it. She doesn't have a huge urge to browse through my collection though, so she has never asked to see anything that I haven't wanted to show her, except for that first time. I really want to find a good feature length porn that we can both enjoy, something that actually has a reasonable plot, not just good fucking. Any suggestions?

The number of videos was the same before and after the down time. The total size of the videos was 221 Gb beforehand. If it's the same now, then there probably was not any editing.

I would have had to answer "other" if that were an option, but "no" was the answer that fits best. The real answer is "yes" in some regards, and "no" in others. Yes, I am getting more refined in what I look for in the best scenes, and what I think comprises a truly amazing shoot. However, the bottom line is that I have already downloaded most of the scenes that looked the most promising to me, so I do find myself branching out and downloading some scenes that may not be on the top of my list, but appeal to me nonetheless. In other words, I have become more nuanced but less discriminating over time.
