No more free pictures?

I click on a pic and it says "Become a Gold Member". So is this the end of the free pics?

YES, End of free pics and many who have uploaded a lot of pics over the years do not even have access to them to get the URL to make sure they email to the webmaster to delete them. I strongly suggest that everyone who has ever uploaded pics to email the webmaster and demand that all pics uploaded prior to this change be deleted.

what is the problem, if you post and contribute pictures, you will still get access to everything.... If you dont, then dont you think it's only right to contribute something towards the upkeep of the site???..

It is a disgrace and I shall not be visiting this site forthwith.

hi jbatt, we are getting the final bits in place. At some stage today, there will be a script that will run that will credit all those that have contributed 10 pics in the last 90 days with free access. I will let everyone know when this is done.

cheers
John

I have been contributing since 2006. This seemed to be the one bastion of pure sharing without any $$$$ in a world where everyone is grabbing for money.

Whilst we have been one bastion of pure sharing, we (myself and Annabelle) have been paying all the server / hosting / bandwidth and development costs. We believe that as a sharing community, it is the right thing to do for several reasons.

Those that contribute 10 pics a month keep all their access privldeges so there not a problem there

As a sharing community, it's right that those that dont want to contribute pictures, but do want to view the pictures of thos that do contribute, pay a nominal fee for hosting / bandwidth / server charges and the development of the site and the community.

Seems that those who love panties and everything to do with them are going to have to pay for there passion. I am one who can not pay as I do not wish to have my wife know of this desire. All those who are in the same boat are going to have to suffer as well. I am not in the habit of prostituting myself by selling pics to get free membership. I understand your need to recover your costs, I wish you the best of I too will not be comming back here. Sad day on the net for pantylovers. Good Luck!

Hi John, Annabelle,

When I first registered to the site (around a year ago), I was surprised it was a free site, specially considering there are costs involved. Of course, the material was provided by the community which kept things "fresh". For that, thanks to Annabelle, John and all the community.

Said that, I am disappointed the decision was taken without announcing it and/or checking with the community first, specially considering a large amount of the material is provided by us. Will I pay for the subscription? I will take a wait-and-see approach. If there is a reduction on material submitted, then probably I will not.
