Interesting discussion here. I can see both sides although there is no need for tempers to flare. Regarding Steve's post, Frank did metion that there was a difference between the "professional" producers and folks like Todd and Jennifer. Steve, if you and the other "professional" producers stop posting freebie previews of your products I do believe your business would dry up (couldn't resit that pun). So if you want to do that fine. Sure, in the good old days there were a lot more amature shots posted here and there but let's face it the internet is becoming very much a cash producing thing and I dont see that changing. Like Frank, we don't ever intend to charge for our modest contribution because it is my way of paying back for all the freebies I have collected over the years. The other reason I won't charge is I want the leisure of knowing I am not under any pressure to update. I do when I do and Veronica is in the mood and the batteries are charged etc. If I was going to charge money I would feel compelled to update more often and that takes a lot of time and effort, for us it is a hobby, not a business. I don't see anything wrong with Todd and Jennifer charging a few bucks for thier photos, they do an awful ot of them. It is certainly anybody's right to do what they want and the individuals looking always have the option to look elsewhere. There are still a lot of Webshots, etc. out there. I do feel if people are going to run a "professional" site they need to have free samples, it is called advertising and companies spend billions of dollars on it all the time. If they didn't, their business would go down the drain (damn another wet pun). The other thing "profesionals" usally try to avoid is insulting their customers, so Steve, you are free to say what you want but their is always a price to pay for that freedom. |

By WETINRED - stekz@cableone.net Fri 29/09/06 09:27:25 GMT Website: http://www.wetinred.com It all comes down to the fact that y'all have gotten so much free stuff in the last couple of years, that ur all spoiled brats and have no conception of the money and time involved in making wetlook for u. So any site or producer that wants to try to recoup his investment, y'all won't support us. And when we do provide free sample images and/or video trailers, all we ever hear is critisism about it. So why provide free stuff anymore. There was several thousands of dollars invested in our LL cruise and ur damn right we're gonna try and break even with dvd/cd sales. What if all us producers, and website owners decide to stop putting out anymore free material indefinitly? Wonder what would happen to this community. So I am calling for all WAM producers to stand united and to stop posting free material. Completely! Until further notice. No More! |

By Frank - Fri 29/09/06 06:05:07 GMT That's hardly the point, but I'll answer you anyway. First, my point is that it's a damn shame that nobody can do anything just for the hell of it anymore - everything has to come down to trying to eek a few bucks out of something that they're going to do no matter what. In the process they become nothing more than one more of the countless wetlook producers out there, and I seriously doubt they make enough $$ to make the whole "collect a few pennies" thing worthwhile. I belong to two different "wetlook sites" and the last thing I would ever do is pay someone like Todd and Jennifer - if I'm going to pay for anything I'll support the professionals.
To answer your question - not a damn thing right now. However, just because my current GF isn't willing to let me post her all over the net doesn't mean I don't have the right to express my opinion, which is how many of you money-grubbers seem to feel. You jump all over anyone who offers a single dissenting opinion like we have the option to contribute but just aren't becasue we're assholes. Reality check dude, we don't all have girlfriends or wives who are willing to expose themselves on the internet.
For the record, my last GF was cool with it, and for a long time I posted pictures regularly on your forum, simply because you have the web space to do it. I'd have posted them here too, but there's no way to do it. But that's not the point - I double checked the rules of the forum, and I was right - those of us who don't have anything to contribute haven't been asked to give up our right to offer our opinions, whether the cash-grabbers like it or not. |

In reply to Message (24959) Khakis, blouse ans sweater in the pool
By Jennifer and Todd - jet@jetwetfun.com Thu 28/09/06 05:59:58 GMT Website: http://www.jetwetfun.com/secret/index_secret.htm A friend of jetwetfun recently donated the funds for us to buy a pair of khakis for Jennifer and asked that she get wet in them with a blouse and sweater, with the blouse hanging out from under the sweater. The result was a very nice looking photo set and a clothing combination we hadn't though of before. In this set, Jennifer gets in and out of the water ... each time going a little deeper and the wet line looked great on these pants. She later takes the sweater off and swims in just the pants and blouse. There are several wet hair pictures as well ... some where her hair is in the water, some where she's emerging and some wet-hair-over-the-face pictures. Enjoy the samples or buy all 115 pics.
