Picture galleries are getting weaker and weaker

What a shame. I only buy scenes where some high quality decent pictures were shot. Dogfart is getting the job done! This is exactly how the pics should be done.

Generally I like pictures and would like to see GG bring them back, but he's moved on.

Personally I don't like the pictures you posted. I think dogfart produce consistently crap dark low quality images. IMO the screencaps from GG's current scenes are better.

IMO Studios like Tushy and HardX know how to shoot pictures well. But I guess we all like different things.

I thought I was the only one that noticed. I don't know why the amount of pics released have been hit or miss lately. The quality, quantity or variety of pictures never affect my decision to buy a scene but they are a welcomed bonus. I especially like the gallery section over the screenshots, after all we can do the screenshots section ourselves. I love the full body glamour pictures like my signature and the ones below (as you know we get the hardcore stuff in the scene). I like the hardcore pictures in the gallery section to because they are often unobstructed shot of the models.

^ Lovely Casey :) Those bright green plastic shoes in 3 sizes too big are really annoying though :rolleyes:

Yeah, I agree about the pictures.

On most sites picture galleries became screencap galleries so I think with a good camera and 4k you don't need them anymore.

If you are talking about real PHOTO galleries of the actual sex I think that's not viable anymore. Dolly Buster times are over, guys.

It takes too much time and cost. With current CFL / LED lighting it's kinda possible to do semi-quality photos during filming the sex, but it's a hybrid.
You have to interrupt the sex which might hurt the scene flow in your video and the photo quality still won't be there as if you were setting up the scene just for real photoshoot.

IMO cameras are more capable than ever.

Before it was required a lot of light and objects or people to stand still. Otherwise it looked blurry, but that was Decades ago :p

Now a days, the flash is almost never required and decent cameras can capture amazing things to detail. (decent to a photographer, to people thinking photos for Twitter or Facebook, a "decent" camera is bloody expensive).

I have accumulated dozens of pictures over the years of me, riding my motorcycles at different speeds, which can range from 50 to 300 km per hour and in a picture, you can even see the branding of the tires even though they are revving line crazy or the dust particles in the radiator.

Both things are indistinguishable to the naked eye. I mean some things are harder to see with your eyes even if they are sitting in front of you. But not to technology.

See the pictures of porn sites that focus on pictures and the pictures are so detailed that you can see the camera man in the reflection of the girls eyes when you zoom in.

Screenshots butcher the detail because encoded videos take advantage of the fact that our eyes cannot see much detail of things in motion and decrease the quality of the images to make the file size of the movies as small as possible. It's a tradeoff, they put enough detail in the video to trick or brain to think we are seeing a detailed image, but it really isn't. Because pictures are a bazillion times more rich in detail.

I agree about the pictures. Videos and pictures - are two different things. The pictures are so detailed that you can see in the video, so without them, I think that a scene is not complete.

I'm put off by scenes with high ticket pricing and lame pictures, example Lara Oynx monster of DAP. No stills, just screenshots of the scene. I wanted to see her posing in her lingerie and shots of her surrounded by black cock! nothing.
