The NetGP has new owners and an all new look, but more importantly
new models - cute models, younger models - this is case of the new owner
coming in, cleaning house, and really making the site work! I like the new
design - it is a bit commercial
looking,
but some that can be forgiven in the interests of getting the site
automated,
which they have clearly done. Models rotate on the first page,
as do banners and other elements.
Fortunately the new models on the page helped get me back in the right
mood. Clicking though, I discovered the preview area - where I could only
see a few small non-clickable photos of the models. As any follower of
BoyReview knows, one of the things I constantly write about is preview
areas. All preview areas should show me EXACTLY what I am going to get if
I join - not thumbnails, not reduced size photos, not composites, but
actual photos from the models gallery, preferably in a layout similar to
the pay galleries. Many sites do this, giving away what is actually
gallery 1. They then use the photos as promo around the Net - good use of
10 or 12 photos from a set that likely numbers more that 200. The new
NetGP takes a hit for having a cheesy preview area. Time and time again, I
say that the best sites are generally the ones that give away the most!
Once you get inside things get back to normal with nice big galleries from
the models. The photos are all put up at one time - something some like. I
am old school and like the tease approach a bit more, but that is me.
Photogrpahy is good, great in some cases, and the finally have given in
and are posting full size images. Photos need to be at least 1024 x 768 in
a paysite, and bigger is even nicer, as it is in so many other cases (!).
What video there is - is on the older side and is best forgotten unless
you really like a particular model.
TheNetGP is back - stronger than ever, with a new owner and designer
determined to make things better, and they have succeeded!
Technology has gotten way better in this area, and old Real Video clips
just don't cut it anymore. There are sections for military, beach, fantasy
boys - clearly an effort to have something for everyone. TheNetGP
continues to be a strong part of the porn world, and if the efforts of the
new owners to continue as they have in past few months - cleaner design,
younger sweeter models with hot photography, they will have a winner for
sure.

Very limited preview area - I think it is
only fair that paysite show you exact examples of what actual photos and
galleries look like.
Workman-like design could use some more heart and feeling. There is lots
of material here and some of it, frankly, has been around for a
while and might be a bit dated.
Andy's Bottom Line
TheNetGP continues to be a leader - it is
fully back to what it once and lots more is has been added. It is clear
that the new owners are serious about the paysite business and it really
shows. The new content in excellent and while the design in a bit
workman-like (same owners as BC18), it is very clean and nicely
automated, making for error free loading and fast pages. A site
deserving a membership - it gets high marks from me.
