A new Decade, what Adult Sites influenced you the most?

[FTVGirls_Rob]

Looking back, before I started FTV -- there were several sites that I joined as a member, some I liked, some I didn't, and others that directly influenced my creation: FTV.

I'll list mine, go ahead and list yours as well :)

-Alsscan.com: I joined back in 1998, through looking at random pictures posted on 'bbs' sites -- saw a brunette fisting with an alsscan watermark on the bottom. I liked the kinky nature of the site, with natural, beautiful girls -- no porn-ish looking types. About 5 years ago I finally met the owner/shooter of the site, Alex -- and told him that his site was inspiration for FTV.

-Bustyamateurs.com: Was a site loaded with natually busty girls, all really cute, mostly photo, with some video bonuses. I liked his style of shooting, but his site went down after some 'bust' -- and then he became a born-again christian or something to the like. I remember going to the site and saying what a shame the content is lost for good.

-????.com Damn, forgot the name of the site, but it disappeared about 5 years ago. Loved the 'FTV style' of photography, and some of the most beautiful girls ever were seen on there. I even emailed the owner about 5 years ago and told him how much I liked the unique site design & style.

[dbell142]

Rob,
I was/am a big fan of ALS and discovered it very early on. The fisting and big object scenes were amazing. They made the transition to video and still produce some amazing videos from time to time but I feel your work is much better.

I love that you release a whole girl at a time. I love that you leave the girls to do their thing but also have interviews and chat with them. I love that we get the range from fully dressed to full on masturbation.

You present the girls as girls, not just as scenes.

Some people complain but the FTV girls and your shoots are always amazing. Some girls might not be to my taste as much as others but they are all cool!

Personally my favorite scenes are the fisting, big toys and unusual objects. I loved the recent Anne bottle scenes!

Keep up the good work and thanks!

D

PS, Victoria was great too!

[Internetvidz]

I have joined many sites over the last 10 years, I would say dozens, here are my favorites:

1) FTV Girls (not kissing Rob's ass, it is truly my favorite)
2) Nubiles.net
3) ALS Scan
4) Toyslove.com (was good for awhile, but now no longer updates)
5) Littlemutt.com....I like the massage videos there

[kpmacker]

My fave sites among the many I have joined are:

1) FTV Girls
2) In The Crack
3) ALSScan/ALSAngels
4) Lezcuties

FTV is far and away the best among these for consistent model-quality and production quality. In the crack and ALS sites are also pretty good, but have too many peeing scenes (yuck)

[rlf01]

In the last three years, have subscribed to two sites.
Hogtied
FTV
Interesting choices, huh? So far apart in their practices, yet not so far apart in their philosophies. Both continually evolve and "push the envelope". Both appeal for different reasons.
I have been accused of being a "fence sitter" in the past. I think these choices define that. But not in the inactive sense.

[FTVGirls_Rob]

Notice the significant crossover with Alsscan. We as members think alike when it comes to FTV/Alsscan. I just wanted to push the video side more, especially back in 2002 when videos were only a 'minor bonus' on some sites.

[Dilbert49]

For various extended periods...
FTV
Danielle
Abbywinters (I have been thinking of ending this one, even before recent news items)


Until they stopped updating:
Alison Angel
Lia19


For brief, 30- or 60-day terms...
Little Mutt
BrandiBelle
I Shot Myself (Australian)
I Feel Myself (Australian)
Yanks (et. al.)
Various Reality Kings sites (join one, get access to 183 sites)
Various Bang Bros. Sites (other than Brandi Belle)
Nubiles - Note: I actually recently picked up Nubiles for 30 days for the "Riley Anne" (Rilee) and "Sara James" (Sara) videos - especially Sara since apparently her FTV update won't come up until March.


I think it's clear from the sites that I stayed with that I prefer solo girl or to a lesser extent girl-girl over the typical "hard core" boy-girl, etc. Just about all of the sites listed in the last group had some appeal to me to get me to check them out (join) but not really anything to keep me for more than one or, rarely, two billing periods.

After typing and previewing this post I worry that the list of sites makes me look like a porn addict! I don't think I am! Oh, and until this thread I had never heard of Alsscan but after looking at this list I don't imagine I'll be checking it out! :)

[grande351]

I haven't been a member of very many sites and I don't go back as far as some of you. I really didn't join my first one until 2007. I've never really considered ALS before, but I might have to check them out. Nubiles is another one along the lines of FTV, but their photos, at least the ones I've seen, tend to be very plain and generic. Of the ones I have joined over the last few years, These are my favorites:

FTV(Of course!): This is not ass-kissing, it's fact. Rob shoots solo girls better than anyone else in the industry!

Onlytease (and their affiliated sites): There are a lot of gorgeous women "across the pond" and most of them are on OT. It's probably way too softcore for fans of FTV, but I love seeing girls strip out of sexy clothes and there's plenty of that. The videos let down the side a bit, but they're getting better.

Met-Art: One of the first adult sites to treat the female body as the great work of art it truly is.

Busty.pl: I like mine full figured and busty and this site's got em. Many models you won't see anywhere else.

PinupFiles/Glam: Did I mention I like em full figured and busty? I also love the "Pinup" style.

[FTVGirls_Rob]

Oh yeah! Busty.pl was one of my favorite sites too. I would loooooovvvvveee to shoot Ewa Sonnet.

[Geezer]

Well, Alison's site was the first time I ever paid money for an adult site. That lasted a few months but I got bored. Sure, Alison is a beautiful girl - even nicer in person, I might add, but I just got tired of seeing the same girl. I don't get all hung up on a girl like some members do. Certainly, one can get "too much of a good thing!"

So, I went over to FTV and have remained a member there for several years. I love the variety - if I don't like an update, I'll usually love the next one.

I joined Danielle's site when it first started and stayed a member for a few months. Again, she's beautiful and charming but I got bored with the single girl factor. I still hope to meet Danielle one day but who knows.

Now, I have never joined these sites but I found, and loved, plenty of free material on:

1. Coolies babes
2. Big Boobs Alert
3. Kindgirls
4. Met-Art
5. Galitsin
6. Hegre
7. Fem-Joy
8. Sapphicerotica

Most recently, I picked up the November 2009 issue of Hustler because Zeba (Brooke Lee Adams) was on the cover. Inside, I found out about Kayden Kross. I became an immediate fan, signed up on her site for six months, and now follow her on Twitter.

[captnjack]

FTV Girls (good)
Nubiles (so so)
Sapphicerotica (good)
AT Kingdom (not so good)
Lia19 (good)
Alison Angel (good)
VideoZ (waste of money)
Danielle

A couple of cute girl's solo sites that were either a waste of money or not memorable enough to remember.

[BenLuvsJessy]

I've always looked at sites, alot of times, i've just taken the tours. But now, i'm starting to join them, more and more. I've always wanted to join FTV going back to 2003. But was always tied up with other things. Now that i'm not as busy as before. I'm joining more sites. The seven sites so far that i like are.

1. FTV
2. In The Crack
3. Nubiles
4. ATK Exotics
5. InFocus Girls
6. 18closeup
7. RonHarris

[mart]

Well i've been online for four years, here's my sites i found to be pretty good.

1. Onlytease
2. Nubiles
3. Met-art
4. Lightspeed "Jordan Capri" "Tawnee Stone"
5. Sapphicerotica
6. Pantyamateurs inc Pantymaniacs
7. Lia19
8. AlisonAngel
9 FTVGirls

[grande351]

Oh yeah! Busty.pl was one of my favorite sites too. I would loooooovvvvveee to shoot Ewa Sonnet.

I'd love to do more than that with her ;) ;) ;)

Seriously, have you ever tried to book her? Would there be visa issues if she came over here to work?

[T-bone Thomas]

Long time ago (must be more than 6 years) I was a member of perfect10.com. They had some nice girls there. I don’t know if the site still exists.
After I joined Lia19 and FTV I became a temporarily member of the sites Twistys, TheRealMe, Penthouse, Private Glamour and a few other sites only to get access to all the videos and pictures of Lia there. Well, did anyone expect something else, lol.

[luvmymusic]

My top sites would be:
FTV
ALSscan
Karupspc
ALSangels

ALS Angels is great but the updates are a bit slow at about one per week

Karupspc the girls are not quite as natural looking as FTV, but then nobody's shoots are as natural looking as FTV. They do have a couple of cool features though, that I wish Rob would consider: In their photo series, each photo has clickable Next Previous and Return To Gallery buttons, as well as a slide show feature with variable speed.

FTV is my favorite, I love the natural looking girls, the interviews, risky shoots, gaping, objects, fisting, and real orgasms. Love the first timers that start a little shy and end up going much further than they thought they would. Also love the unpredictable shoots here as opposed to many sites where the shoots are way too predictable.

[kryten]

I'd also say ALS Scan and ALS Angels have been the biggest influence on my work, I would like to add Simonscans and AllRuth as well, partly because they are like FTVgirls and danielleFTV.

You can find my work by searching for spuffco. :)

The first girl I ever paid to see actually started out free, then went to paid. Jennicam.com I'm ashamed to say. That goes back at least 15 years. Yes, sometimes she just sat in front of her computer, sometimes she'd dress up in lingerie and masturbate, but it was always a real girl doing real stuff. Then she got a little over-exposed (not literally) and appeared on Letterman and various talk shows and shut down the site.

I can't remember the exact URL, I'm sure its lost and gone forever, but there was this girl named Destiny who had a website. I'm sure it was run by some horny webmaster with a cache of pictures, but the photography seemed very...amateur and not well polished, but it was just photos of a girl taking off her clothes and playing with toys. Different outfit every week, and never did it alter. Eventually, the updates started repeating, going back to the beginning, so I left and somehow went on with my life.

I didn't really get into any of the adult sites again until I found Brooke Marks. Odd that she's a Non-nude model...but very sexy and isn't shy about the occassional slip.

I think I first came into this world by joining Lia19.com just because I saw the Lia/Danielle shoot. Lia is hot, but I liked Danielle better, then found out that Danielle was on FTV. And now I'm here. The end. :)

[CK1]

i too was a jennycam fan and another site called amanda cam. amanda was a little more risque and would actualy do photoshoots. again, very amateur but the fact that it was a real girl not a porn looking girl made it hot. I also was a fan of a girl named Destiny. not sure if its the same one roberto mentioned. there were a bunch of solo girls site that were all tied in. all went for a while and then started rehashing the old material. i later found that the girl from that site made appeard on a site called CD Girls as well as did some porn under the name Alexis Taylor. too bad there was another porn star with the same name... made it difficult to find info on her. anyway, I became a fan of FTV early on. you can see some of the same girls on other sites and they don't look as good. they are either have that extreme porn look (fake expresions, clothing, etc) or the photos are poor quality/pooly taken or they are so photoshoped that the girls do not look human any more. from FTV i have been a member on and off of Alison Angel and Lia19. again, until they stoped updating. i did not participate in alisons forum. actually, i didn't even know about it. i have signed up to other website but FTV and its sister sites are the only ones i have come back to.

[Internetvidz]

I have to add that simonscan is pretty good too.

[Robertoverde]

I think there was a girl named Hunter, a red head named Megan or something (who also posed for Playboy) and I think a big breasted girl named Taylor...and yes, I think all those sites were inter-related. We're probably thinking of the same thing. Now that I think about it, it was called nometro.com or something. Clearly defunct now.

[CK1]

yup, that was it. Megan had a cameo on a Playboy video and had a couple of pictures on an issue (she was not a playmate) but other than that, nothing else. i knew that the sites were up for sale and are still up. just the same rehashed material. but i guess they are still making money. i read on another thread that megan (redhead and one of my early fav's since she was a red head) walked away from the modeling and has just a civilian, family, the whole nine yards.

i just double checked... Destiny/Alexis is also on Matts models. so she appeared on a couple of sites and then movies but then just disapeared. its strange because girls now show up and film a year worth of material in a month or two.

[100% AGAVE]

Great thread. Quality of content has always been at the top of my criteria in order to subscribe to a site. Quantity of content means nothing to me. Then of coarse you have to like the niche, style of girls, presentation, etc..... (Real orgasms and beautiful/natural girls are at the top of my list)

Multiple Visits:

ALS Scan/ALS Angels - first site I ever got a sub to. Returned a few times. Back in the day it was the best.
FTV - Discovered for first-time in about 2004. Seemed to take off where ALS stopped. I was more interested in Vids, and ALS was not keeping pace.
Fuckingmachines - Some great orgasms here. A bit extreme for some. Watching the Amateurs is the best.

Visited:

FTV Danielle - Great personality, and gorgeous. Only single girl site I have ever joined.
Wired Pussy - This was a bit too BDSM for me, but the content was certainly real.
Ultimate Surrender - Great concept, naked girls wrestling. But ultimately not enough sexual action for me at the time I subbed.
Give me Pink - Originally had some decent content, then at some point totally switched to mediocre/ugly girls with lots of makeup. Total turn-off.
Blacks on Blondes - One word "Dogfart". He is the master of interracial sexual tension. The young Bree Olsen shoot is a classic.
In the Crack - Joined after they dropped the token system. Interesting content, but they focus on the parts and not the girl. Gets a little boring.

Want to Visit:

Abby Winters - Love the description of the content.
I feel myself - Real self-shot Amateur Orgasms on video. Sweet.
Whipped Ass - A female-female dom site that seems kind of cool if you like that type of thing.
Allison Angel & Lia19 - Will have to break-down and sub to these sites at some point.

[Dilbert49]

A couple of points:

1: Unless it has changed since I unsubscribed, I Feel Myself is not self-shot. It was apparently started by a former Abby Winters model (Leandra, I think?), but includes studio shots, etc. as well as "Homemade" shots.

2: I Shot Myself is self-shot, as far as I recall, but has a lot fewer videos, only a relatively few of which include masturbation. There have been some good ones, though!

3: Abby Winters split into 3 "separate" sites a while ago with (as far as I know, since I was "grandfathered into all three sites) no cross-linking rights unless you pay for the other sites. One of their "sites" inludes the "Intimate Moments" videos (one or two girls, fixed-position camera, etc.). Another site includes girl-girl, and yet another site includes just solo shoots of the girls which may or may not include masturbation - although if they do, these are not shot with fixed-position cameras.

Just throwing in my two cents...

[FTVGirls_Rob]

Ah yes, I liked bubblegirls too, when it existed, then became cdgirls or something like that. We almost got into a model-sharing agreement, but then he disappeared.

[CK1]

CD Girls was good but i guess i found it right as it was changing or changing hands. it went from amateurs (some eventually became porn stars but most did nothing else that i ever saw) to extrablished porn stars. lost interest after that.

[Anoree]

I've been around the Internet (and looking porn) for two decades now.
In the early days there were few sites that required membership or even age verification.
In the mid 90's more and more sites had to protect minors from their content. The site owners also got aware that they could actually earn money with Internet porn. :)
Around 1996 I started joining age verification sites, and also a few select payment sites, most of which are long gone and forgotten.

- Naughty Alysha was the first single girl site I joined, if I remember right. (Hi Alysha! Surprised to see you here. But a very pleasant one. :))

- ALS Scan was also a site which I enjoyed to view. I even have a few of their early Photo CDs in my rack.

- FuckingMachines is a site I can't keep of this list, even though it's off my normal path.

Then my interrests drifted to (free) story sites and public nudity.

- Public Exposure was one of the sites which featured that content. (It's now closed, if I'm right.)

- PublicFlash is a site I'm still a member of, and it's up and living.

- NudeInSF is a recent two part site with mainly a forum to exchange nudity stories with a (payed) picture part.

- Redclouds / VoyeurWeb are sites specialized on amateur shots of wifes and girlfrends.

Through public nudity (and a couple of tube sites I viewed) I came to

- FTV Girls and

- DanielleFTV.


I think I was on and off FTV earlier than my ccbill log shows, but am mostly on now. Danielle's site will have me until it closes.

The rest is history.

[luv2mtnbike]

The first site I joined was Digital Desire, J. Stephen Hicks is a big mountain biker and swapped emails with him about riding and knew of his photography through Penthouse Magazine.

After that I found FTV Girls and then Alexa-Model and Rob had me hooked later joined Alison-Angel, Lia19 & Danielle.

I did join ALS Scan because some of the FTV girls have been there as well

[teduardo]

I think the first site I ever joined was Crushphoto.com. In the late 90s or early 2000s when the site was at its peak, it was pretty decent. The photographer went a little too arty with his photoshop filters, but the girls were mostly great. Like FTV he went for first timers (or at least relatively new to the industry) girl-next-door types.

What killed that site though was his work ethic. Promised updates were always very late, sometimes weeks would go by with no news or content updates. I was a member for a year or so, but canceled when the updates got very sporadic.

Then I discovered FTV and I always end up back here. Not only are the pics and videos the best on the internet, but you can always count on Rob to actually update the site on a regular basis.

Crushphoto has died and come back a few times over the years, and always with the same results. Regular updates for a bit, then the webmaster goes MIA. If only he had Rob's dedication, he might have a Veyron too (or at least a GT-R)... right now I bet he drives a Camry.

[caperuzo]

for me, las decade i joined more than 200 sites (honestly) always trying to find new excitement. some of them once , some twice or more.

the fist sites for me were:

- penthouse.com
- simonscans
- zoliboy
- alsscan/alsangels
- darchives (gone)
- inthecrack
- 1byday
- bangbros

and many , many more. but the ONLY site i have been a regular member is FTV.

[Woody]

I used to love ALS but now i think it's lost somthing! Yes it has amazing HD quality vids! But the vids all start looking the same to me! Alex the owner used way to much bady oil & lollipops in the vids and picture sets! Maybe it's hard to come up with new ideas? Because the sites been going since 1996. And the updates drives me mad!! They are too spread out! You can be waiting for a new update from a model for months sometime years!! He has a model who he shot back in 2007 but has just put it up as a new update at the end of 2009! I don't even think she's still working in porn anymore?

But here's the thing! FTV is a Solo/Girl-Girl site like ALS! But for me every FTV vid is different!! That's why at the moment i think FTV is the best Solo/Girl-Girl website to be a member of. It's all masturbating at the end of the day! But when i look at the FTV updates i don't go and say he's got the models using baby oil again or there on the bed again doing the same thing like every
other model is doing! See i love FTV for the outdoor stuff!! And even if Rob took the models to the same place everytime i still think Rob would get somthing different and amazing out of every model!! And then it's just upto the taste of the members on what models they like!

So yeah i thank ALS for the inspiration for FTV!!

[gogidolim]

I've had membership for bubblegirls.com several times. I love the concept, but I got pissed off by the more than infrequent updates and contents that are not downloadable with conventional means.

I've also had membership for littlemutt.com. Seriously, the massages videos are the best. I really like the concept.

I once had a membership with fuckedhard18.com. I really love to see the girls getting pounded hard. The site would be much better if it had occasional creampies. (yeah, I like creampie videos.) I guess it really depends on the girl.

Speaking of creampie, I used to have membership for amateurcreampies.com. Two thing I hate about: many of the girls seem to be nervous and the clips are very small. Everything else is awesome though.

Personally, when it comes to porn, I don't see anything wrong with stealing the concept from other sites. I really like the massage/orgasm concept and I think FTV can pull it off with a female assistant. Not just some teasing, but some real serious genital massage thing.

[Just Me]

Wow... I see nubiles on a lot of lists..

I am trying hard to think of what site or sites influenced me.....

FTV has been part of my later shooting, but not really influenced me as I shoot the same style overall as, Rob. This being due to not being able to afford professional lighting, so I was forced to shoot with natural light.

I used to have a website called Sik Fuk, at the time I was influenced by what I thought was cool at the time Max Hardcore. Boy was I wrong :( You live, you learn.

I started shooting porn and nekkid girls back in 96-97, being a broke foo I always shot natural light, wait I already said that..lol

Later i was able to afford professional lighting, Profoto, softboxes ect..
I started shooting for nubiles, ect..

My influences are:

1....Me -Eddie Coates
2....Max Hardcore -bad influence, but nevertheless it was there.
3....Shanes World (Seymoure Butts)
4....FTV
5....Nubiles

I have always been able to shoot high quality glamour photos and video as well.
Like Penthouse, twistys, Stephan Hicks, ect... Its a simple three and four light set up, gold and or bastard amber gels on your hair lights.

But Rob and I can not shoot with lights most of the time as we shoot lots of on location and public stuff...
We gotta get out of dodge.. hee hee Damn, ANGRY HOUSEWIVES!

[SpreadThePussies]

In the beginning the movies from AlsScan were fantastic! But they didn't innovate much. They are too much just recordings from a photo-shoot and not standalone videos.

Then InTheCrack and FTVGirls came along which I think still are the best around. FTV Girls for the authenticity and InTheCrack for dedication to their genre. Two great sites that do continue to innovate.

18closeup.com is a new-ish site I came across which seems very promising. Young girls and lots of close-ups. That I can like!

GiveMePink is in theory a fantastic site but I find the girls being rather tacky and they wear way too much makeup.

InFocusGirls is close to being very good contender but the videos don't zoom in enough for my taste. Apart from that the site is excellent.

The Zoliboy/Flexypussy/Playfulhands/Lezcuties/SpeculumPlays-complex also has some nice high quality videos of spread close-ups.


---
Videobox is the supersite for movie downloads or streaming. Devilsfilm and ZTOD are very good "movie studio sites" well worth a visit.

Googlevideo and Bingvideo are good alternatives when you are not a member of any site.

Bottom line. InTheCrack and FTVGirls are still on top.

[Mel]

Wow! thanks for the trip down memory lane. I've been a member to almost all of those sites at one time, but for me it's just FTV and PublicFlash for now. I might go back to footfetishdaily, fucking machines, bangbros or I feel myself. ALS and nubiles will also have to wait.

[specialk]

ALS was my first membership as well, but the site now is absolutely horrible. It has roughly 1 new girl every 2 months, sometimes less. They have moved to mostly european pornstars, who are extremely fake.

I like Nubiles but their video quality is horrible now - the exposure is far too high. Skin should be midtones, not blown out highlights.

Hey Rob, any chance of getting Jesse Spears from nubiles?

I remember finding FTV a few years back when I saw the Vanessa update, who was in several videos from Dream Girls in Tampa (who happen to be some very cool guys and throw some insane parties).

Other favorite sites:
Hogtied
Devicebondage
Fuckingmachines

I love to see girls cum - Hogtied & Devicebondage force girls to cum over and over; however, the best is when the girls aren't allowed to cum otherwise they must endure severe pain.

[Raymond]

Well, obviously FTVGirls

But also Amateur Allure, ExploitedCollegeGirls, Next Door Amateur/Amateur Creampies, and Digital Desire.
