Adult Websites--the Lowdown

I located an adult website I’m considering trying. I have never gone to a pay-site before.

Questions:

I can’t answer to any of the mechanics of belonging to a porn site, but I can guarantee you that you can save and print any image that shows up on your browser screen. Just right click and “Save picture as…”

Some sites don’t accept the right click or ctrl+c. Try it and you get a message that says “Please don’t copy pictures from our site!” I’ve also had this happen with text at some web sites. But you should still be able to do a screen capture.

I only go to the free sites, but they do seem to be organized into specialized areas/fetishes/perversions :slight_smile:

I think paying $3.95 for three days on a porn site is like paying $4.95 for a slice of pizza. Just go ahead and plunk down $20 for the whole pie*. I mean, how bad can it be?

*insert dirty joke here.

Are you not able to find enough for free?

sign up for the short trial period then immediately cancel it by following whatever instructions they have given you to do so. Otherwise, you will automatically get renewed for the monthly subscription. Cancelling only cancels the renewal. You still get to access the site until the trial peiod is over.

Disabling JavaScript in your browser should stop those annoying anti-right-click scripts.

Well… my [ahem] friend [cough, hack] has tried a few of these offers, and they’ve worked for me with full content. If possible, make sure it’s with Paypal or someother reputable service. And like TGWATY said, they often have automatic renews.

If the sites are interesting, my [cough]friend[cough] tends to check back every couple of months to download the new content 72 hours solid using download managers.

If you want to get around the right-click script, this trick often works:

1: Right-click the picture so that the message comes up.
2: Press space (closing the dialog), and right-click immediatly after.

Usually brings up the real menu. Good luck!

If you’re concerned about credit card security, consider getting a pre-paid credit card. They work great, and there’s no way it can effect your credit rating, nor go over the amount for which you’ve paid.

A good one is the i-GEN card, you can get them at CVS, Rite Aid, and I think I’ve seen them at The Wherehouse.

This is a script-kiddie approach. Just turn off Javascript and you’ll be fine.

Then again, if you can see it in your browser, it’s in your browser’s cache.

With all the free stuff in the adult areas of yahoo. lycos and MSN…Why would you want to pay for porn??

I haven’t tried it in this particular context, but another method to avoid anti-right clicking scripts is just to plain take a screenshot of your internet browser, and crop what you want out.

You can also use the View Source thing to see what the pic is called, copy the URL of the pic and paste it into a new browser window. It’s how I get movie trailers when I can’t save them normally.

Because the free stuff is usually crappy quality, hard to get in complete sets, and generally repeated everywhere as an advertising ploy.

Pay Sites tend to have about 100 x more images, if not 1000 x, and the pics are twice the size, higher quality, and you get to be a part of a site that caters to your particular interests.

Having said that, 99% of Pay Sites are rip-offs. Go carefully.

I have tried 2 different pay sites for a month each with no real problems. In fact, one of them forgot to remove me from the password list and I was able to access it, and its sister sites, for over a year with no billing.

As to why people pay for porn, I think it depends on what you are into looking at. If you are just into hardcore sex then IMHO its not worth paying for the content. I mean, there are literally millions of different shots of beautiful women giving blowjobs on the net, and if you go to something like sublime directory, which catalogs a ton of new free pron everyday with no popups, you can get so much porn your eyes will bug out.

I think pay sites make more sense for people with peculiar fetishes. For instance the ones I joined catered to people with foot fetishes. I am not talking about people who think womens feet are cute, because that is not a fetish. I am talking about people who regard feet higher than boobs and ass. You just can’t get very much free porn of the type that “does it for me”. So it makes sense to pay for it so I don’t have to dig thru the vanilla pics of women to get to teh foot ones I like.

janes guide has reviews of porn sites.

I dont think I am allowed to type the url so go google janes guide.

Don’t take this the wrong way, Stinkpalm, but your fetish and your screename are perfect for each other!

Or if you’re ** really ** desperate press the “PrintScreen” button while you’re on the page and then paste it on your Paint program. Then you can select what you want and save it!

OR

Download Kazaa. :wink:

Easiest way to harvest pr0n from those tricky sites is to click (In IE) File>Save As. That saves off the entire page, including images. Doesn’t work for all layouts, but it gets the job done.

I need to ask as well, though, why pay? There is much pr0n out there, just waiting to be taken. Don’t waste your money on a pay site, especially since I would strongly suspect credit-card shinnanigans will ensue.

There’s a ton of free porn on Usenet.

A ton.
