So I've had lots o time on my hands and I've been putting it into my new site. It's kinda a mix between a Babe Blog/FreeOnes Network/Model Specific Niche.

babetemple.net

It's still obviously a work in progress, the homepage itself is very incomplete. However the model specific sites found in the directory are coming along nicely. I've spent most of my time writing my own custom scripts to automate the update process via custom built XML feeds formed from either Arylia or GalleryDaemon galleries. Load testing and tuning Varnish along with W3TC, etc.

I'm at the point now where I am trying to decide upon adding buddypress social network features. Do I want to implement/manage a forum? I'm half and half on it, building/growing a "useful" forum community seems a daunting task.

But I really think I need to focus more time into building a trade system that doesn't sacrifice the basic/simplistic nature of the sites.

What do you guys think? Any advice, criticism, constructive criticism is greatly appreciated.
