A sobering perspective from one of our brothers...
Quote:
Hey. Just browsing the suicide girls thread in the ladies lounge and you may want to point out that SG is evil. They fired Lithium Picnic (great photographer) because he supposedly broke his non-compete agreement with SG by hosting a website for his girlfriend (Apnea--perhaps the most popular SG ever). The thing is that in the non-compete clause it was within his bounds to do a private site of that nature. Now they are suing him. They were in litigation for years against Deviant for just owning an alt site because they said it was copyright infringement.. seriously, how do you copyright a certain look of people?? Anyway they are going after God's Girls and have already sent cease and desist orders to them and to several alt style sites that want to open. They are using their big name and money to bully a corner of the market.
Anyway, you may want to post this information and recommend that she go with Deviant and/or God's Girls. It's what would be right for the market.
Oh and lithiumpicnic.com is a great site You'll love it
