Hi

Will there ever be any new 3k/4k duo's?

Due to cost of production, not very often. I don't think they are completely done with them.

Hope for Duo's to come back... but unfortunatly, totem seems to take another direction...Same lack of istripper's XXX (ex Deskbabes)... Maybe in the future, if they found a way to earn more money with them... Fingers crossed for me for them to came back, but i'm not very optimistic about this...

I ***** to pour cold water on the idea, because
Duos made some of the best triple x cards ever imho.

Problem for Totem would be management cost of all the risks these days.
If you think about it..here are just some risks of Duos that come to mind :

What if customer likes one performer and not the other, will they still buy cards ?
What extra costs ($ and Time) will arise for @Team co-ordinating 2 models ?
What is the risk of one performer not showing up ?
~ don't laugh, it happeneded with one of the first USA cards !!
Will the extra model fees, travel, accomodation, makeup etc be recovered by increased sales?
What if the models have an arguement or one gets sick or changes her mind ?
Longer shoots: Who does what to who ? Lighting & shadows. Retakes due to bloopers?
Complexity of contract/ insurances.
Double the model fees or more.

Inspite of all this, I have faith that one day, we will once again see a dream duo card like the old days 😊

Ah my favourite commenting person (EverthangForever), thanks for replies

Oh my..Uma Jolie and Ariana Marie in a duo like this would be a ultimate fantasy filled for me. Provideing they get the sound and lighting right. It would be pure sextacy. I bet it would sell like hotcakes if they got it right even with a extra fee. Oh and there needs to be better direction in XXX cards because they havent beeen lately (cough Ariana's latest cards).

HaHa..you have been tweeking the default model sizes in PPC. Good one @DANO70 ;-)>
Well it could all just be an intentional stall on more Duos to encourage newbies to get to Gold status
so they can enjoy the AMAZING early talent here...un peu.. a marketing tease also ..so to speak :-)

Actualy this image was made from 2 paused full desktop mode screencaps put on a wallpaper image :) I've made quiet a few of these. Makes a great slideshow or in a wallpaper changer. lol
This one is rated T though. I can thank WA for the tip useing a blue or green wallpaper first.

Unless they figure out a really good way to do it, I don't see duos being profitable for them. It's certainly harder to produce and it's also harder to sell them because people might like only one of the girls but not both which makes it hard to justify paying more for the card. Would be nice if they did it occassionally like a bonus or something but on a consistent basis, seems unlikely.

@Dano: Good job there, buddy but I would stick with white backgrounds when you want to pull an image from them. Anything you miss around the edges might look like JPG jaggies so not your fault! ;) Trust me, I've pulled hundreds of girls from their backgrounds to place in other images...

@Hombre

Yeah I've used white as well. It's just easier to crop when the outfits/acc. etc. are white too useing the bright blue or bright green. I Don't have to focus as much manualy erasing around those Items as often.

"What if customer likes one performer and not the other, will they still buy cards ?"

Sometimes, usually not.
It's quite a bummer I agree, but that's how it goes :(

Duo cards cost twice as much to produce and don't sell twice as much.
To our understanding there is always one of the two girls members don't like as much as the other and nobody is ready to pay double price for it.
Timing two big stars on the same day is a challenge also as they tend to cancel and reschedule often.
There will be more duos, when the opportunity is there, but we won't mass product them anymore.
