I'll give you the short story.

After college I started a celebrity feet site for myself. I did not go to college for html, and this other stuff, so it was just a hobby. I have self taught myself everything over the years through trial and error.

Getting back to the site.... It was fairly popular, and when the web changed in late 90's, I had to move to a dedicated host. The site became popular, and I was paying hosting bill of $800-1000.00 a month for others enjoyment. So I changed it to a membership site, people paid, and I was off.

While working in telco, was making a nice sum of money off that and some other adult pay sites I ran (all closed, or sold off now). For those I licensed content and feeds from others. I would constantly be frustrated by the 'ownership' or lack there of when it came to the adult pay sites. So I planned on starting my own where I would 'own' everything.

I started with a clip store, and the rest is history.
