fuckin' thin skinned lurkers... "there's this thing called da interwebz..."

For the OP:

I'm sure if you dedicate yourself to it and really market your look and so forth you probably could make money. But there's lot's of good fish in the sea so you really need to WERK!!

The Suicide girls themselves don't make much, and the company's business practices leave a lo9t to be desired. The standard contract is pretty awful for the models/photographers...$300-$500 per accepted photoset, a full buyout of all rights for perpetuity, they can limited the numer of sets a model can have live on the site, and they are severely restricted in the non SG jobs they can book.

Your friend is correct. Models okay with shooting that level of content are better off with www.godsgirls.com or wwww.zivity.com

Except I'm not so sure about how limited they are outside of the site. They may be limited in what they can do with their Suicide Girls name. Like, Alice Suicide, or whatever. But there are plenty of them who do a ton of modeling under other names, even WHILE they are "popular" at SG.

Also, I'm quite sure they get paid a better rate to appear on the DVDs. But so few of them end up there that that's not really a valid point, anyway.

Its true about the business practices of the owners, though. There's pretty much a cyclical backlash against them at the site. One group of models will get tired of the bullshit and leave, a new group will come in and get "popular" in their places.

Isn't she the one with the amputated leg? I think she's fine (as in hot, other than the fake boobs..I think), but the set with her leg off didn't really, uhhh, work for me.

Even under another name, you'd still run into the non competion clause of their contract. Most of the sites that woukld offeer a SG a well paid shoot are considered competion

OK, well, I know - like, for absolute fact, because I've gone to several SF SG events and what they're doing is a pretty regular topic of conversation - that many of them do a lot of work while they're a SG. So maybe its specific to the type of work they're doing. Like, a no SG type websites allowed.

I'm a working alternative model. Not trying to nitpick, I just know people whom caught the wrong end of the SG stick, and don't want to see the OP join them

Also, there used to be a Lorelei Suicide. I liked her, she wasn't bald. Not sure if she's still active on the site or not.

I thought we were having a conversation. Neither nits nor picks have anything to do with it as far as I'm concerned.

It's hard to read tone on the net, I wanted to make clear that I wasn't being arguementative or contrary for its own sake I just got back to the org, and wouldn't want to piss anyone off that quickly

Post some links to some of your shoots. Doubtful that would piss anybody off too awful much.

This site is just a domain placeholder until I deside on a web designer to do the proper one but it has my portfolio as of right now :

Thanks! I've been lucky to work with a ton of amazing photographers, hair/make up artists and clothing designers!

Thanks insomnia, but I would never be able to be one- I just don't have the balls! I was asking because I have a neighbor , a girl who lives in my building and another neighbor told me she was a Suicide Girl and that she makes over 100 k a year doing it and I was like, "Get outta here!" but maybe she makes it doing other jobs?

Btw. I looked at your site! So cool! You're very pretty and I love the red hair! My fav pic though was the one under "commercial" bottom left with the dark hair- great androgynous shot! love it!

Thanks for the kind words! Your neighbor probably does several types of modeling aside from SG, and if she's smart about personal appearances and promotions she coult clear that much, but that's not the average for any SG I've yet met off of SG work alone.

A grumpy one at that.

The eye roll was only partially related to your pictures, and probably not what you're thinking in that regard, either. I'm thinkin' I'm just gonna walk away from this one because it really doesn't matter to me in any way.... other than being right.
