I have been going through some of the posts in the G&N thread (I know :oops: let's call it research) and I was struck by what I thought was a bit of a scam in that a member from Germany was posting some interesting but not technically brilliant pictures with suitably coquettish comments, and as appears to be the case over there when anyone (female that is) posts self portraits the usual culprits all chip in with the "Wows" "Fantastics" and "Awsomes".

I checked out her website and to get access for a month is 19 Euros and for a year it is 69 Euros.

In one of her threads where her picture was actually given a decent criteque she threw her toys out of the pram and has gone.

Is it me or do you think it may all have been a scam?

Neil she has been around a while, always seemed weird to me and I don't venture into G&N too often anyway.

Like Crissa said, Sissi has been around for a long time here. A year or two, I think... She was even a sorta regular right here in TPBM Chat for some time while she tried to work her post count up to gain access to G&N. Even way back then she charged for access to her own web site.

But, she posts so rarely here on POTN, even in G&N, I don't think she's fishing for customers. Frankly, I've never seen anything she posts that would make me want to visit her site, much less pay for access... ;)

Pretty much my take on her too. She seems quite friendly, and I have never seen her try to sell subscription to her site.

I like some of the ideas she has tried, but more attention to a quality image using these ideas would make her work more appealing. I think the fact that she uses only implied nudity is a nice change. :)

Hello all, popping in long enough to let you know we are all OK, in case Zane is news surfing.

A tornado did touch down about 8 miles north of us this afternoon and destroyed Edwards Apple Orchard. Run by friends of ours from farming and the stage. This is where we took Aiden last fall and he had his first pony ride. Thankfully no one was hurt, however all their barns are gone, most the orchard, and two neighbors house are leveled. All furkids are fine too.

I'll be back after rehearsal to catch up.

Wow, Becky! That's crazy. I don't know how you guys live where tornadoes are possible. It seems like it would be so nerve wracking. I'm glad everyone's ok.
