Card #357 Anna and Baby Cindy is using the "new" animated overview that was discussed earlier this fall on the forums.

So what do you all think?

http://www.deskbabes.com/collectionSet.php?cardId=c0357

Nice!
It is a 4 or 5 second clip showing nudity.
Is this the only one so far?
I checked the three most recent deskbabes cards and they do not yet have the animation.

ONLY nudity may be okay for deskbabes. However, for virtuagirl, I hope the animated clips will show both clothing and nudity (so that new users can see that the girls have different clothes for different cards, and that the girls actually get naked).

I guess you can only see this if you don't own the show yet.

At Mugsy,

That's the DB Flash Banner animation.
You're Not Logged in to the DB site, so you see the Home Page Banner instead of
Card #357's page..

Pics:
1) not logged in - Flash Banner Shown..
2) Logged in, No Flash on the Page...

And if you Don't already Own the show, you see this...

I tried with my secondary account:
There is indeed an animated overview. But i hope for VG they come up with more than just one animation. This may be ok for db but for VG one needs to see taskbar and standing and pole or you can leave out the one of these where the model is weakest.

@Wyld

That's not what I'm seeing at all. And I AM logged in and I see a blue lock to the right of the stats containing two women going at it for a few seconds. I'd post a screenshot but that may ***** the no nudity rule for this forum.

I guess Wyldanimal failed to see my earlier post here.
Yes, the page does have the animated clip.

I am almost always signed in to both VirtuaGirl and DeskBabes

Besides, isn't this what we were told the new animations would look like? We were told in place of the static lock image, there'd be an animated one instead and that animated lock would take the place of the older overviews.

If these are NOT the new overviews feel free to delete or lock this thread.

the animation looks good, nice work :)

HUGE DISAPPOINTMENT

Doesn't even compare to the old overviews.

A four second clip on a loop ?? Complete crap.

All this time you've been working on it and this is what you come up with ??

REALLY ???



You guys need to trash this and go back to the old setup.

PLEASE bring back the old overveiws, This is nothing compared to how they were.

The new overview is just garbage please bring back the old one.

Really dislike the new overview and it looks like I'm not alone in this. If this is your Idea of improving something that worked just fine and doing it just because it was "too old," even though it worked just fine, please do us all a favor and do not improve anything else!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This sucks a big one.

People who dislike this ridiculous excuse for a replacement of the Overviews as much as I do need to share their thoughts on the matter. The only way we can get the Team's attention is to say something. Over, over and over.

If their aren't enough complaints made, then this crap is what we'll get for another five years or so. For VirtuaGirl and DeskBabes. I don't see how it would be any different between sites.

I just don't understand how anyone can be happy with this. It's pathetic.



Please, speak up people !!!!




EDIT:
If this is just a teaser and much more is to come, then a Team member needs to let us know.

LOL that's it?

I'll keep buying with demos only...no more 2 credit purchases.
Thanks Totem!

I can`t believe after so many months where The Team worked to bring us this new animated overview, the final result is a crap(my opinion)

I checked too that animated overview and like other members said, it is a bullshit(and when you think they worked so many months - they even delay the term of releasing-they said end of september first time)

I don`t want to believe that all cards from VG and DB sites will be like that DB card (Anna and baby Cindy).
This thing will be a total disaster.

I appreciate all the time Totem tries to bring new improuvements on the site and software and actually I like many improuvements they`ve done (the demo carousel especially,the pictures,the videos,the reviews and other useful features integrated in the software and examples can continue)

The only thing that I disliked from the beginning in the new look of the site was that big monitor with that big padlock(I mentioned this thing long time ago on the this forum).That monitor occupies too much space from one card.
I said it that time and I say now again.

I don`t know who from The Team had this "brilliant" idea of removing the old "overview of her ...min show" and to replace it with this animated overview,but I can tell him(her) only this:

That idea was A BAD ,BAD idea.The result you can see it now(the new animated overview is a crap).I didn`t realise it will look like this.

So please Totem remove that crap with that monitor and padlock and put it back the old "overview of her ....min show.

All those words written above are just my opinions regarding of this new animated overview and if someone will feel offended somehow,he(she) is free to say it.

Please remember Totem if you`ll replace all cards(VG and DB) with this crap will be a big mess and a total disaster.
I don`t see how you`ll increase your sales with that bullshit.

I would like someone from The Team to open one poll for voting the members IF they like the actual animated overview and if they want to keep it OR to bring back the old "overview of her ...min show" and remove that monitor and the padlocks from all cards.

Just checked it out, and I hope it improves a lot! It's tiny and not really much use at the moment.

Since this is currently only on ONE card, it's hard to Say that THIS is how it's going to be.
We will have to wait and see how it evolves.
I'd like to see More Samples, not just that short single sample.

Personally, I too like the old Larger Banner style Overviews.
But Totem is Integrating the GUI and the Web, so the new Animated Lock overview will be used on both.

If it's what I'm getting the overview isn't an overview it's a couple of frames. I knew they'd SCREW it up! I've totally stopped buying cause without the overview's I feel I've been taken or "RIPPED OFF" right and left!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Have to say it I told all of them in these forums that they were going backwards and "I was Right"!!!!!!!!!!! Extremely, just plain STUPID if you ask me!!!!!!! Oh, but they don't care!!!!!!! It is of absolutely NO USE!!!!!!!! Very, Very BAD!!!!!

It's a glitch. This was a test we did but it was net approved, we didn't like it. I have no idea how it ended up published, but it should not have.
New overview will appear in a new space called non nude preview and will show one of the demo clips of the girl..

Thanks for the clarification Rex, any guess as to when this is going to happen?

@Rex

Thanks for letting us know what's up with this preview clip. On a Sunday at that.


However, I'm a little ***** about this comment. Not too long ago, you were saying that newcomers were having trouble understanding that the payed for content included nudity and you wanted to make sure newcomers understood that the full shows were nude shows. Here lately, it seems like the free teaser pics have been going pretty much non-nude and now you're saying that this new preview that replaces the old overviews will be non-nude. Are all the demo clips going to become non-nude too ??

If a long time member such as myself can be a little ***** about what's really going on, don't you think a newcomer could be ***** ?? I mean, I kinda get the impression that VirtuaGirl may be in the beginning stages of going non-nude. I've had that impression for quite some time now. Here I could swear you guys said you were looking into creating a new site for non-nude shows a while back. Did you change your mind and decide to make VirtuaGirl non-nude ??



I'm still wondering why an adult site that requires age verification or membership for entry would even be concerned about nudity on the home page and store pages. I guess I'll never agree with or understand that one. Just doesn't make any sense to me.

Thanks for news,@Rex.

I don`t have nothing against if the new animated overview will be non-nude.

"New overview will appear in a new space called non nude preview and will show one of the demo clips of the girl.."

If this thing will going to happen and it will appear in a new space it`s fine for me.If I will see one demo clip or more just like in demo carousel it will be fine for me.
I hope that(those) demo clips(clips) will not be too short(3-4 seconds)like that crap that we see.


" I have no idea how it ended up published, but it should not have. "
LOL,it`s strange what you said.I thought nothing is published without your approuval.After all,you are the boss of "The Team" and everything what will be published it should be asking your approuval before to be published.

Wonder about DBs, since not all the cards there feature a no-nudity demo. Guess that upcoming preview is only for VG purposes, or new DBs demos gonna be released to achieve this?

Here is how it should look like.
We'll keep the "Want to se NNNN naked?" whith the computer screen, the model naked but covered, the lock and the buy button.
We'll add a new "Non nude preview" space that will play a short extract of one of the demo file of the model so users can watch the model move.

As I said before, we where unhappy with the previous overview because it was unclear to new users that they were buying nudity (as the overview was non nude). That's why we added the unlock screen and changed the wording.

Plan was to have this new unlock and keep the old overview, but one person left the team here and we don't have the work power to produce them (one new every day) manually. That's why there is nothing for now and we had to work on a system that will display the existing demo files instead of requiring an extra hour of work every day.

This will be in the software only at first as the non nude preview is in our proprietary format and can't be played by regular browsers. We'll see if it's worth it to reformat all demos videos for the website looking at buyers stats (most users buy from the software now).

For DB the previews will include nudity and explicit stuff, it will be named Quick Preview and we'll add a warning at the entrance on the website.

I think it's better because new users won't be ***** about what they buy and everyone will have a preview of the girl moving.

Rex, thanks for the clarification.

Nice présentation @Rex.

Thanks Rex,
One question though... As an affiliate the old overview was a central part of the design for my promotion pager. Will you create something general to replace the old overview for us? I mean some animated stuff with each girl to be included in the promotion package.

As it is now there's been no animated preview available for the new cards (for affiliates) since you terminated the old overview and I need something "extra" for each girl to replace it.
