It wouldn't surprise me in the least if he photoshops his pictures. The man is now 52, and he is the main selling point for his web sites and DVDs. So he definitely wants to look as good as possible, and if photoshop will make him look better in his photographs, why not?
He definitely has a lot of ego. But he is a porn star, and part of that means selling himself. Major movie stars have to sell themselves as well, when they promote their films. It's part of the business.
I admit my review was poking fun at his ego, a bit, but he does deserve respect for apparently making such a financial success of himself in the porn industry. He has not only acted in over 1600 titles, but he is also a porn director and producer. He also promotes/pitches products, which is what major movie and TV stars like Cher have done.
If you join a network with one of his sites included as a bonus, you might want to look through the DVD clips offered. Peter North has been acting in porn since the 1980s, and he's acted with a huge number of attractive models. He does not come across as an egotistic jerk in his videos.
He is a workout buff, and is proud of his body. But that is also self-promotion, and smart. I personally think that some of the promotion is overdone, but some fans are impressed by all of this. He is famous for having a large penis (in length and girth), famous for the large amount of cum he produces, and how far it shoots. His fans are both male and female. The female fans want to be on the receiving end of his sex, and the male fans want to be like him.
Separately, I gave his site a score of 87. That score is based on the network value of all 19 sites in the network, and not just on the single value of this individual PeterNorth site. If I was rating this PeterNorth site as a single, stand-alone site, my score would have been lower.
I tried to make that clear, in the BOTTOM LINE of my review, that I was scoring the site for its "network as a whole score, not as a single site by itself score". If my score was misinterpreted as a score for this site by itself, I apologize.
There might be fans who would rate this PeterNorth site by itself as an 87, but I'm not that crazy about him. I'm more into the female models he is bonking. :)

The only person that I can think of at the moment with fame and wealth that actually did something positive is Paul Newman. He created the Newman's Own foundation that has donated millions to different charities. Of course that is a far cry from a pornstar but that's the only that came to mind.
I don't think you are too cynical. It's a fact that we are animals.
That is why when one of us rises above his or her own basic interest and does something positive. We point that person out as a good role model. I just find that many people today just don't rise very high anymore.

The only ones out of the 9 site that are really not worth it are Interracial Eurobabes and Gags Girls. The first because there are only 7 videos videos and the other because that does not appeal to me at all. I will be reviewing a couple of the sites later today or tomorrow. The key point with these sites is that the sex is more extreme than in some others. A couple of the scenes in some of the sites involves face slapping and that's not my cup of tea. Regardless that the girl might enjoy that. I do not.

Totally agree with everything you said as far as the actual model is the final decision in terms of how long she decides she wants to stay in the business. I am with most with the fact of the matter that porn awards are pretty much null and pointless. However, I did try to think a bit hypothetically and say, "hey, if awards are going to happen, mind as well be by a panel of fans". But, I pretty much don't care about them at all even though I chose fans should the panel. I guess it is the combo of the industry decisions with the models decisions plus the fans wanting more that decide which are the superstars. There is obviously no clear cut answer at all.
Yes, Jenna did bring that all american blonde with titty implants to the mainstream porn world :(

Interesting take but just like all entertainment, I think it's probably truly a combination of both the fans and the industry. However, I believe the industry finds the product (this being the model) and can present it well (in terms of porn, a well made scene) but it is truly up to the fans to pass along the information to boost the career. Of course, the next superstar of porn appearing on some amateur website with a small amount of users (or a dvd title in a lower tier company) will probably go un-noticed by most due to the lack of viwers in general. So I agree that it is up to the industry at that point. However, the industry is a bit different than the pre-2000's when it comes to entertainment but especially adult entertainment. A model exclusive to the internet can now get extremely more popular than the stars of film. A new model who knows she has it, can just appear on 2 or 3 sites with a extremely large population base and that can jump start her career, why? because of the fan base population. Of course, the industry is the outlet but I think the fans design how far they are going to go.
Another reason I think this but it just popped in my head and could not be entirely true is I remember when I used to rent dvd's from the more popular companies (vivid, wicked, etc) and there were always scenes with models that just never took off (however, they are vivid girls/wicked girls) which basically means they 'made it' in terms of the industry but obviously just could not pick up a good fan base to true stardom due to the fact of NOT having a true fan base. These stars from these films I never really saw again which I think was due to the fact that the fans really did not respond well.
You mention that the reason some of your more favorite models over the years were now gone despite being appealing due to the fact that they were attempting to 'sell' themselves as a package and did not get it right. I obviously agree, but why don't you think they are not here? You said they did not get it right, but did you mean get it right with the industry or the fans? I would lean more towards they did not get it right with the fans and due to this, they are not around anymore. Just my opinion.
As far as Jenna Jameson goes, I believe she came around when porn was in a transition from the 80's and early 90's when the models were in my opinion, not up to par by today's standards. I believe she brought the youth with glamour combo that the industry is now to the forefront. Whenever I see 80's stuff, all the models tend to look extremely amateurish and if the most popular models in their prime were in a line up with the popular ones of today; I think they would clearly be overlooked in terms of looks alone. However, I do believe Jenna Jameson is overshined in terms of the stars of today. But, in that line up in terms of looks in her prime, she would not be overlooked. I believe her career took off due to perfect timing when she was introduced.

Yes, Amia has a tat on her neck - I like it, personally - tats on necks mean that the girls who have them REALLY like having their necks kissed, licked, bitten, etc

The only girl that had been on a previous trip was Jana Jordan
Amia Moretti now Amia Miley was there, though she was a disappointment - in a pissy mood the whole time, unfortunately
Jayme Langford was there, though I'm not terribly into her and she let Jana carve that wound into her wrist right before the trip - just to give me another reason to turn my head whenever she was around
Jana herself was fucking amazing
Blue Angel - first Caribbean trip - was fantastic
Tanner Mayes - first Caribbean trip - was as amazing as Jana
Hailey Young -first Caribbean trip - was a real revelation for me. I hadn't been into her before but she's got terrific sexual energy and is a really fun girl
Anita Pearl - first Caribbean trip - haven't seen much footage of her, but every pic I've seen is gorgeous

Hi turboshaft, I agree with everything you are saying.
My remark was in connection with one reply to the poll. Paraphrased: "I would never do this because it would affect my career if someone ever discovered that intimate picture/video of mine on the net."
When I read it it brought the question to my mind: How would I feel about subscribing to porn if, every time I looked at the models, I saw their future careers in other fields shattered because of an unwise choice or because of youthful carelessness.
I don't feel that way. I feel the way you do about the subject. Just wondering about the implications.

Hiya everyone!
I'm Sue-ann, I'll be your contact here on pornusers.com, answering all your questions and comments. Well, maybe not everything - a girl's gotta have some secrets... :)
The team here at abbywinters.com did have a little bit of an upset but it's business as usual this week, the photographers are out shooting and there are still loads of cute Aussie babes walking through our doors...we're not going anywhere.
The main website will have a complete revamp towards the end of the year. It's very exciting and there's a bunch of new, way cool features I know you'll love. Stay tuned.
Regarding newbie 100 scores: abbywinters.com has never and will never post spam reviews. When a member sends in great feedback our customer support team have asked them to spread the word, posting here and on other review sites their personal experiences with us. We won't do this anymore as it seems their passionately positive reviews are annoying some people..
Anyway, questions are most welcome and I'll do my best to help
Love ya later!
Sue-ann

The site initially will start off with mostly EU girls. The main reason for this is simply because they fit the type of site image we are building.
However, we have a lot of US girls that we have already shot that will also be making their way into the updates in the near future.
I'm a little confused as to what you mean by "exclusive"? Exclusive to me has always meant that we shot the content and nobody else has this exactly content.
Anyways, thanks for the comments! It's always nice to hear what you guys think so we know where to improve the site
Mike :)

I don't know anything about Australian porn laws, but I do know Australia is on the cutting edge when it comes to censoring the internet. Seems to me they may be using AW to further their cause.

Explicit is in the eyes of the beholder, the same as personal taste. In the United States, Playboy used to be prosecuted for obscenity, and that is a softcore magazine that in those days basically showed a few solo girl spreads with nudity but no masturbation or any sexual
action at all. Around the 1970s, I think (not really sure, my memory is really poor sometimes) a lot of drugstore and convenience store chains in the U.S. were forced to stop carrying Playboy because of public sentiment and lawsuits. Those stores that did carry Playboy (and Penthouse and most certainly Hustler) had to keep the magazines hidden away from public view because minors might be corrupted by the magazines. So the stores that carried Playboy kept the magazine in a special adult section or hidden away under the counter.
I don't know if Playboy is still being prosecuted for pornography in the U.S. today, but back in the 1960s, 1970s, etc., when it was being prosecuted, it was more softcore than what you find at Met-art or Femjoy, which are major softcore sites today. By that, I mean the pubic area back then was covered with natural pubic hair. Today you see the bare look at Femjoy and Met-art, with no hair covering the pubic region, so the pubic region is much more exposed, or completely exposed today.

No idea what's going on, but something must be happening behind the scenes. I've noticed there haven't been any webmaster replies here lately and they're definitely not honoring their policy of giving a response within 24 hours to emails for tech support. I guess, if your future is in jeopardy, little things like that go to the back burner.

Yeah it is really eccentric and different than anything I've really seen. As I said in the review, I really thought the girls were gonna be taking the scenes with zero seriousness which would result in garbage. But, they do a good job of mix and mashing the seriousness with fun which creates some interesting and well done scenes. Thanks for the kind words about the review and let me know if you need any more information about it, I am still a current member for a little bit.

1. In ideal world, you're right, in practice it just won't happen. While it would be nice to see things made back in 80s in HD, with current pace of technology older formats can easily become obsolete in a matter of 1-2 years. On the other hand, what's the big deal? There will be new sites with new material in 1-2 years :-).
2. Resolution itself is a rather poor metrics of the quality. I'd rather take crisp 2000px than blurry 4000px (and when camera matrix is working close to the edge, blurriness often shows up; it can be quite easily fixed at the expense of resolution, but as long as people are comparing numbers, not pictures, websites won't an incentive to do it :-( ).

> "Why would anyone want pictures that are bigger than the screen?" argument goes out the window (or out with the smaller monitor).
While I admit I'm not a picture fan, I'm still wondering - how many people REALLY have monitors big enough to care about 4000px-width pictures? Ok, 2000-2500px monitor is more or less standard these days, but 4000px on a single monitor? Not only I've never seen such a beast, I've never heard about anybody who has one.

"Community Standards" means that those who stage the Miss America Contest should be jailed if any of the material gets to a Muslim nation that forbids viewing of a woman's ankles, let alone a bare stomach. Such a rule undermines all freedom everywhere if allowed to stand.

Fuck yeah! They just posted a new model the other day - Tanner Mayes - that is one of the cutest girls they have ever had on the site. Rebecca Blue is new in '09, I believe and is also gorgeous. Oh, and Sarah Peachez going ALS style modelling - who'da thunk it?
