Actually, VF Academy wasn't a site I paid much attention to because I normally don't like uniforms but I am thrilled with the site because I have already found many sets with lingerie as beautiful as that found on VF, therefore I am willing to forgive the occasional model who wears Blazer and straw hat! :-)

Hi claypaws, it's the old version of the Windows Media Player but kept up to date with all the new codecs. I just switched the default of all my videos to VLC and it has markedly improved the quality of the VF videos because I have it set to sharpen the picture a bit by default.
You may have noticed that I also upped the rating of the site itself because the more I thought about it the more grateful I was that there was ONE webmaster who bucked all the current trends and tenaciously stuck to his guns (niche). It can't be all that popular with most who seem to prefer young and casual these days, so he must be taking quite the gamble?!

Home Media Player comes with the "K-lite Codec Pack" and is basically the old Media Player with loads of advantages over the present one.
The play stops and resumes on a click, the volume can be adjusted through the mouse, all the stuff the new Windows media player no longer does. If a video is published with the wrong dimensions (too stretched, too narrow) it can be adjusted through the numbers pad. It also seems to have a codec for just about every format under the sun. It's great but I haven't found a way to sharpen the picture yet! :-)

Thanks, Claypaws. I appreciate your positive comments. I did try to be as fair as I could, especially since this is such a treasure of a site for lingerie lovers who like a bit of a tease in deed and word! I am using the Home Media Player to watch all my videos because it will play all formats but might do just the opposite of what you suggest and start using VLC when it comes to clarity of picture. With VLC one can adjust the setting to "sharper" and that helps in some cases, maybe it will with VF.
I, too, have a multitude of sites on the go at the moment but could not wait to re-subscribe to Vintage Flash since going to the other subscribed sites proved to be a daily disappointment. See my negative remarks in my other review yesterday.

Ya know, I'm new at reviewing sites, at least at writing down my reviews. Been reviewing in my head for ages. I will try to watch for internal inconsistencies like this more carefully in the future. I agree "many" would probably have been a better choice of words.
Anyway I was more interested in the pissing than the toys. Have always liked watching girls pee. Don't know why, and have long since given up on trying to figure it out.
Thanks for your comments, I will try to improve my internal consistancies.

That is very odd Claypaws, I swear when I posted this comment there was an option to join the "entire network", but now when I go to wow and try and join this option is no longer available. Very strange. Sorry if I caused you to waste money.

This is odd. I wondered why they included Wow Girls when I heard it was added because while Wow Girls is obviously owned by the same group they list it under an American company rather than Diesel. When I reviewed Wow Girls I noted that it probably didn't make sense for them to include it as part of Diesel since they'd lose revenue.
Sorry to hear that this happened. Let's hope that the Diesel people sort this out.
(And I didn't know you could join sites directly from the biller. i'll have to check that out. The only potential problem I see with that is that may mean that TBP / PU wouldn't get a fee for members who click through these sites to join.)

It's nice to meet another Gloria fan here. She's my favourite Diesel model, but there are several others who aren't far off. I know people who wouldn't find her attractive, but she damn near perfection in my book.
Is it easy to turn java and flash off?

I think that this is the first time that someone has reviewed one of my reviews so thoroughly. Thanks for doing that and I hope that you did find it useful.
For the 317 pages, my guess is that you're right that the error comes from including all of the diesel sites too. I didn't notice that until slutty mentioned it but I would have felt cheated if I made my decision to buy a membership thinking that it was a large site. The current site has nothing to apologize for given the great quality, so I hope they fix this mistake soon.
The Wow Girls site does have the ability to shrink the size of the thumbnials and I did use that but I found that the picture pages still loaded slowly. That might be a factor of the way I select the pages though. Because they have to be downloaded through the browser I'd go to a model's page and open the sets I wanted in a new tab and work my way through the tabs. Opening two or three tabs didn't seem to be an issue, but opening more than five was a problem. The problem might be the way I'm using the site.
I don't want to get anyone's back up in answering your question, but the answer is that not much is left if you remove the material you listed. This is a guess (after browsing through the site to get a sense of what the count is) but I'd say there are fewer than 50 photo sets that don't have what you prefer to avoid. I have to add one huge caveat to this answer though - I'm no fan of screencaps or photos which simply mirror a video but with this site, like the Diesel sites, the photo shoot doesn't detract from the video and the videos don't detract from the photos. I'm not sure how the site does it, but the two can really stand apart.
I hope that answered your question. If not, let me know and I'll try to get the information you're looking for.

Very true this is, its annoying why they can't all be called by one model name and although not their real name as I can understand them not using that but it would save the headache of finding out other things a model has done and where you'd seen them before.
Agree also on the brand indentity and for a smaller site you have to have something that will give you an edge and get people to join, xart have come a long way and they seem to have a great community of fans on the site that do vote and comment, hope other sites could learn lots from these guys in how to run a smaller niched site.

Hi Claypaws
Yeah I think I could of worded that better, I know lots of the girls from other sites but theres a few I didn't recognize though, its the amount of good looking girls all in one place I like about this site. They have a good model directory with a chosen image of the girl where you can see her face so you know if she will be what you want to see more of.
Thanks for the comment.

I'm glad you enjoyed the review. The site is great as long as you are looking for a more soft feel to your erotic material, and of course as long as you want tons of solo masturbation and some good bg scenes. For more focus on pohotgraphy I'd recommend met-art.

I'm hoping that I've got her stuff from Nubiles because I've had a membership after that date and she is definitely someone I would have downloaded pics and video of.
Again, thanks!

Thanks Claypaws - for the kind words and pointing out where I can get more Tiffany. I'll definitely be checking my Nubiles collection later tonight and will check the ATK site.

I use Firefox, because I believe it's less likely to give problems (viruses, malware) than IE.
But the message about the non-secure connection that is also asking for my username and password is not a message from Firefox, but from the X-Art site.
Sometimes that page comes up, sometimes it doesn't, when I try to download content (photoset or video) from the member area of X-Art.

Sometimes c and e are also hard to distinguish at some sites.
It's fairly easy to read the captcha at this site, but there is some error in the software, that makes the submitted captcha entry incorrect on the first try.
There are a few sites where, because the captcha letters and numbers are so distorted, that I give up trying.

I'm a huge fan of the improvements this network as gone under the last year or so, so much better than it used to be and the models are so cute its unreal. I was thinking yeah maybe they should make it more clearer though that the site isn't really that much for the photo lover as it is much more based on the movies. I for one are the opposite of you and realy only a movie lover, photos don't really do much for me anymore. But there is some decent photos of Gloria on her site, I really like her too and have looked at a few sets, some really good shots of her, that said I'm not a photo expert. I hope the network carrys onto grow and I'd love to see wowgirls being added to the network.
There is sadly very few sites that do amazing photos and amazing movies, I think most companies concentrate on one think and become experts at that,The Diesel network I have to say are pretty damn incredible when it comes to movies.

While I generally like this site, like rearadmiral, I can see where you are coming from as a photo lover (I have been in a video phase lately). Most of the photo sets I have saved are average, like you mentioned some are just vidcaps - which is sort of pointless to even post on a site in my opinion.
Welcome to PU, looking forward to hearing more from you.

As a photo lover myself I have to agree with what you're saying in this comment. I scored the site 85 in my review last October and I feel that was over generous considering what I actually got from the site, I guess I was trying to be objective and rate the site in its overall value to those who also enjoy videos. I'm also a big fan of Goria aka Kylie A and out of interest just went back to see what I downloaded of her from YLP. All I got of her was 4 solo sets in 2000px, they may have been available in 4000px but I can't remember and tend to opt for full sets in 2000 to save on disk space. I later found 2 of those sets on The Life Erotic where she is named Elise so they are certainly by no means exclusive to YLP.
Like you I have little interest in videos, or boy girl and lesbian action. They do have many hot models here but it is difficult to appreciate them when most of the photos have a maximum size of 1000px and I certainly don't see the point of those shitty screencap galleries, surely they have no use to photo or video lovers. I certainly hope the site continues to improve on the quality of the photographic side as promised by the webmaster here as that might tempt me back one day.

Claypaws's Comment from Claypaws:
It is refreshingly honest of you to say that your photo sets are "very average". I would like to see your tour being more up-front about being video biased. Most users probably are more interested in video anyway. We photo-lovers are rather in a minority and I fear that, one day, we will find we can longer get photos and have to leave the world of porn subscribing behind. That will be a sad day. Fortunately, I have over 2 TB of photos.
But if you are really going to give still photography some quality attention, I will be interested to see it, particularly if it is of Gloria. I am not interested in sets with toys, or with masturbation. I love to see full pussy spreads with full eye contact and the face in focus. When you get some quality photos, I will definitely be prepared to give the network another chance.
Yes, I did see skinnysupergirl.com
I was a member of the full Diesel network for a month from 15 December 2011. skinnysupergirl was the main reason I signed up to the network.
I have saved 32 Gloria photo sets from skinnysupergirl, of which 12 sets are true photo-sets at 4000x2666, though, as you say, they are very "average" in quality and interest. I am sure I have seen one or two of them elsewhere too though, if I did, I did not consider them worth downloading then. The other 20 sets are 1000x562 vidcaps. If there are 36 real photo sets with her then either they have been added since mid January 2012, or I saw them and found them too uninspiring to download, or I missed them, which seems unlikely since finding photos on that site was my reason for joining the network.
I also downloaded 17 videos of Gloria from that site and 8 from the rest of the Diesel Network. I agree that the videos are excellent, as videos go. I downloaded them because otherwise, I would have felt I got no value from the Network, as a photo-lover. If you were to produce solo photo shoots of Gloria, without toys or masturbation, of a quality equal to the videos, you would get a rating in the high 80s from me. As of now, there are excellent such photo sets of Gloria (as Kylie) on MET-MODELS (now called eroticbeauty), MET-ART, Femjoy (as Valonia)and Averotica. I also got good sets of her from the now defunct 66Beauty (as Susi). They were ruined by a silly watermark and a horrid grey border but otherwise were moderately interesting though well below the calibre of the MET-MODELS or Averotica sets.
There is no video of her anywhere that comes anywhere near the quality of yours. But video is not my thing. The one called "Fuck me" is almost enough to convert me though :-)

We almost have no duplication, only few scenes for promotion of different sites/
Now about overrated network and rating us between 70 to 75 - oh no :) No way here. We have created so great much scenes and our cooperation with girls is unique. We brought a lot of innovations and interaction with models. I find our sites very well rated by members here and underrated by staff of TBP and I hope it will get better. Members know better then staff, that's for sure!
Thank you for your time guys and see you in our world again!

About splitting the sites.
You do know that we were among the first solo site makers online and it had huge success. This is why we have a lot of sites and those solo girl sites are not just regular sites, we are talking here about following the girl for many many years. This is not "point and shoot 200 sets in one flat and create website", this is a real get to know the girl and follow her, talk to her live and become friends.
This experience is priceless and yet very costly so this is how it works with us and I think we did a great job, creating awesome platform where you can easily switch between sites and getting all within two clicks. This is actually very popular among our members.

The photo sets.
Well, we have the best films online, it's unarguable, but our photo sets are very average which is unarguable as well.
I am a big fan of cinema myself and we love image in motion but saying that, we are going to blow up our photography this summer. We are going to change the standards of photography as we did with filming.
So if you are interested in photography, we got a lot of nice photo sets but they are not captivating enough as our films and we are definitely more in filming. Give us few months and we will surprise you with our photography skills and its quality.
As for Gloria's photo sets, we have 36 real photo sets with her. Have you seen her solo girl site, www.skinnysupergirl.com?

Hey guys!
I am the man behind the network and I love talking to our members! :) Thank you for your comments, please allow me to get into your discussion :)
The exclusivity of our models.
We nowhere claimed that all our models are exclusive, though a lot of them were discovered by us. We brought a lot of great stars to web, Ivana, Sasha, Natasha, Kat, Alice and the list is quite long. I love to get real girls rather then models, but the ones we found already modeling, got much better scenes with us.
Girls love to be with us, our approach in creation of content is much different, it's like another world comparing to industry standards. For example, take the girl Gloria, the one you commenting about, there was no chance to get her filmed in masturbation scene. NO CHANCE. And a Girl-Girl scene with Gloria? NEVER EVEN THINK ABOUT IT. Year ago it wouldn't be even funny, but today - we got it! Real girl-girl scenes with Gloria. We have managed to create the right atmosphere for her so she feels attracted by the idea of girl-girl action and it took us one year!
Take Sasha and making her go hardcore? FORGET IT AND NEVER ASK AGAIN, couple of months and voila :) Same goes with almost all girls who came to us.
So, some girls were modeling already and I care more about rediscovering them! Girls love to be with us and you can feel it in the scenes of course and that's why they are popular.

As a former member who scored the site at 95 I was prepared to disagree with you, but you make some valid points. I’m not a big collector of photos so when I collect them I only collect those of models I really like. I did download a lot of photos from this network and was impressed with the quality. But I can understand how someone who is primarily interested in photos would find this site a bit disappointing.
I wasn’t aware that the models here aren’t exclusive until fairly recently. I don’t know or follow many European or Russian models so I made the assumption that they were exclusive since many of the models work together and the production values are equally high in all the videos.
I strongly agree with you that the way the site is organized doesn’t work well. There is no good reason to spread a model’s videos and photos throughout the ‘network.’ And it can be especially frustrating to see the same videos repeated, though that isn’t a common occurrence. It would seem to make a lot more sense to sell this as one large site and not as many small ones. I suspect the reason for the setup is that it makes it easier to sell as a network than a site even if all the material is the same.
But… being a video fan and really liking many of the models here, this ‘network’ is one that is on my list of sites that I return to occasionally to look for updates.
