JUNE 2006 RE-VISIT

It's only a few months after our last visit but this site is a LOT better. There's been a major overhaul and most of the things we found really frustrating have been fixed. It could still use a bit of tweaking, but it's now a solid, reasonably-priced site that shouldn't disappoint aficionados of the authentic amateur experience.

First off there's a new logo, layout and design. And it looks really good. About the only thing we didn't groove to were the scrolling messages in the address bar of our browser. These have always seemed to us to be an annoying distraction. Otherwise: 100% improvement! We love the pink Union Jack concept. That's sharp design. Navigation is really simple. There's a diary and forum area that allows for quick and easy posting. "Treats" features a bunch of extras from Gamma Entertainment. The exclusive videos (of which there were 67 up when we visited, running 5-10 minutes each) come in two--high and low resolution--formats. The high is 500 kb/s and 320x340. The low is around 150 kb/s. Best of all, the pics in the photo galleries are now all downloadable. And they are surprisingly big for this niche too, clocking in at around 1200x1600. Updates are being added once a week, Laura's on cam daily, and in one of those terrific original touches that the smaller independent sites are always coming up with there is a page where you actually vote for the next update. Thumbs up to all of this.

Of course, this wouldn't be Pornreports if we didn't have some critical comments to make as well. Forthwith:

(1) The videos often play like camshows. Which isn't surprising because we assume that's what a lot of them are. So you get fixed camera positions, dark lighting, and Laura constantly looking off in some other direction rather than at the viewer. And, of course, poor sound. Which was doubly disappointing because it would have been nice to hear Laura talk a bit. The videos that are a little more "produced" are a lot better. We should emphasize that this doesn't make them any less amateur or realistic. It's just that camshow video is good for a striptease, but not much else.

(2) We had some intermittent problems with links not working and downloads breaking off. At other times, however, things worked fine. Perhaps there are just some bugs being worked out, but we thought we should mention it.

Overall this is now a good little amateur site with plenty of personality and hands-on interaction. Our main wish would be to see Laura break out of the camshow formula more. The flashing/exhibitionist material is definitely one big step in that direction. Another would be to have Laura talk to the camera, or even dramatize a bit. Given how much this site has improved just in the last few months we wouldn't be surprised if it continued to get better in these and other ways.

FEBRUARY 2006 REVIEW

As you might have gathered from the address, this site features a British amateur whose bra size is 32DD. A bit more detail: The girl in question is married, 25 years old, and works as a secretary in London. Her name is Maria. She enjoys being naughty in front of a camera. Hence . . . this website. 

Inside, the members area is pretty in pink but also pretty crude. The About page gives you some biographical stuff. Nothing special. And for living in the land of Shakespeare the writing is a bit rough. It starts off with "Up Close and Personell [sic]" and ends with her ambition to grow hair "down to my waste." Enough said.

Next section: Photos. And boy-oh-boy did we get a nasty surprise here. The photo albums are all viewed through a Flash player. Which means the pages are slow to load, hard to view, confusing to use, and don't allow you to save any of the pics. 

In case you missed that part we'll repeat it: You view all of the pics through a Flash player and you don't get to save any of them.

Holy fuck. Been a while since we've seen anybody try and do that. And god only knows why they're so paranoid about protecting this content since (a) they don't protect the video; and (b) the pictures aren't that good. Basically a lot of nude posing and some exhibitionist/flashing shots. They aren't very big and the lighting, even outdoors, is terrible. Looked like about 30 galleries total, which isn't a lot (they only advertise 700 photos). The main photo index, however, repeats the links to all the different galleries, so it looks like there's twice as much content as there really is. This can't be deliberate since you're already in the members area, so we put it down to more sloppiness.

Videos: Seems like a pretty long list. Around 180 clips. The thumbnailing is terrible. Just one little postage-stamp size pic per clip. These clips are Windows Media format and all seem to be between 1-10 megs and 1-5 minutes in length. The site advertises "high-res" clips that play back at 500 kb/s. That's the newer clips. We downloaded a bunch of older ones that were 150 kb/s. And yes, they looked that bad. More bad lighting and poor camerawork. No editing. Some shots aren't even in focus.

Cam Shows: About 25 archived cam shows.

Friends (bonus galleries of some other amateurs), and Extras (funny stuff). 

We'd like to be more positive about this site but we can't. Maria looks good but there just isn't a whole lot here. And what there is here is poor quality and not very well presented. Not being able to save the pics is ridiculous. A lot of the video was well below average. Site design was crude. There was no indication of any update schedule.

A final note: We're not sure what to make of the reviews they've got posted. They've got Sir Rodney's logo but we couldn't find where Sir Rod had ever reviewed them. They did get a 93% from Pam's Reviews but, as we hope you've figured out by now, that doesn't mean shit. Does anybody take Pam's Reviews seriously? And they also have it posted that they received a score of 87% from Porn Adept, but when we checked that review it said 73% (which makes a difference).

We hate to seem like the big bad guys again, but as we've said before: If you've got a rating scale that goes from 1 to whatever you ought to use the whole scale. Our scale goes from 1 to 9 and there's no way we can give this an average score because it's just not that good.
