NSFW content creation question(serious)
 

Legit and 100% serious question here.

For everyone who does shoots now, AND anyone who is on OF...

Do you have still photos for all of your shoots? What % of "content creation moments" these days have still photography involved?

When my friends and I shot content before, every episode had tons of still photos. Is that still a thing in 2024?

I ask because I am getting drunk and about to re-start my work on my tube-killer project, and there is just a bit of info I need about still photography to plot my way forward with some fresh ideas.

Photos for shoots for OF aren't really needed. The best content is self shot with your iPhone so photos are kind of just pointless.

I ask because if they have a couple people working with them or a "team" then maybe some "behind the scenes" type of content is being made as well, would be fun to gather all of the "behind the scenes" type content and make compilations out of it, like a reality show.

Pro Tip?

Dont forget to rig a toilet cam :thumbsup:thumbsup:thumbsup

Sounds like you just need to be friends with Vince McMahon!

I still like photos and the generations willing to pay for porn still like photos.

It annoys me that tube sites are happy to steal and display my photography, but no partner programs for stills.

The issue with images it... that so many people are looking at things on a screen in a 16:9 grid of movie thumbs, then ads are on the top and sides...

I'm working on something to have some sort of quick slideshow where people can browse image content in a better way...

I see some of the biggest sites are actually SO shitty to browse for images/photos.

The modern porn browsing experience is just SO bad:

Okay, just the regular "photos" page, let's say I'm into brown chicks...

Okay, let's click the "brown girl" tag... I want some curry cunt!

What is this shit? One of the biggest porn sites on the entire internet and its photo browsing area is complete DOGSHIT. I'm sure I could build a better one, but they have all the fucking traffic for their obsolete and lame interface.

I saw this "Alexis Texas" under the "brown girl" photo tag and I decided to click it. Big star right? Can't be a rip off, right?

Well, I then clicked whoever Jackmann is...

In the dim twilight of my understanding, I'm adrift, unsure if what I see in this 2024 affiliate landscape is real or a mere illusion. It's like I'm just a tiny speck, bobbing helplessly on an ocean rife with deceit and tricksters, each one eager to snatch a fleeting fortune in the adult world before disappearing into the dusk with their unrighteous winnings. They depart with a chuckle, leaving the rest of us to gather the shattered fragments, toiling on in a relentless march of despair. And damn it, it burns me up! The audacity, the sheer gall of these people, to think they can play us for fools, exploit our toil and leave us high and dry! It's enough to drive one to a bitter, raging drunkenness, where the bottle's the only honest friend left in this mad, fucked-up online world.

I know, in theory, it sounds good, and honestly, I was with you on that, but it turns out the best-selling stuff is the one that is so obviously amateur and self-shot.

I was always told that the affiliates of your paysite need and want still photos to help promote your site to surfers.

It would appear that there aren't really any sites that are photo-focused, or am I missing a big site that I haven't found yet?

Given the advances in AI photo enhancement, still shots are more crucial now than ever if content creators want their images to stand out

You think so?

Can you beat instagram for photo? I know it doesn't allow porn but you see the like counts? I ask a friend, she said she likes seeing sexy photos more than people fucking.
