ALS's twist is that all their models are shaved "down there". That's a good start but in addition these guys are doing some good work here. It's another site that shoots their own content, so it's all exclusive and won't be found on any other paysite. They really stick to two basics that make the content very impressive: hot models and big, sharp pictures. At first glance the site doesn't look impressive at all. In fact, the design looks like a fifth grader could have done it, but I got over that quick once I saw the content. Anyways we all can agree it's much better to have an average looking site with kick-ass content than a slick site with crappy content.
Like I mentioned before, the picture quality here beats most any paysite. Some of them are just huge pics at around 1067x1600 and such. Not all of 'em though, there are some that come in around the standard 600x800, but even those are crisp and clear. There's no hardcore boy/girl sets but it's still tough to describe the site as softcore because fetish stuff keeps popping up. Things like fisting, bottle insertions, speculums, public exhibitionism, and lesbian action can all be found. All the galleries are organized alphabetically by models name and there's also the "bloopers" and "outtakes" sections, which to me just looked like extra pics not included in the regular sets. One nice feature is that each gallery can be downloaded as a zip file.
Right now there's about 90 video clips online, but those get rotated on and off the site, so you'll want to download the good ones to your computer. They're Divx mpegs and take a damn long time to load, but it's worth it because the quality is up there with dvd's. This is where you get more extreme action with tons of masturbation, insertions, and lesbian sex. The videos are certainly more entertaining than the pics.
Thankfully ALS Scans only uses very hot models, no ugly broads here. Looks like they (like many other sites) use many eastern european girls. They take excursions to places like Budapest, Czech Republic, and Jamaica to get models in exotic locations including on busy city streets. Photos from these trips are both mixed in the galleries but also have their own separate sections with a bit of info and background about the shoots. I guess I can live with the $24.95/mo cost, it's pretty much industry standard for kick-ass original photography.

A lot of time has passed since we did our initial review of ALS Scan. After checking things out again I see they've stuck to their guns and continue to have hi-res pics of sexy shaved girls. In addition to the shaved angle the outtakes, bloopers, and director's blog sections are the items that somewhat distinguish ALS from other photography sites. They continue to raise the resolutions on their pictures so they're newer pics are even better resolutions than they were a couple years back.
The amount of photo galleries continues to grow as there are daily updates made to the site. The videos on the other hand continue to be displayed in a content rotation system. At the time of this follow-up there are a couple dozen available online. This is the biggest negative about the site. One final note is that they've bumped up the membership by 5 bucks for the first month's membership. These scores have changed: Quality -0.5 and Features +1.
Score remains at 86.6.

ALS Scan has always been a highly ranked photography site with a specialty in shaved models. As I discussed in my initial review ALS is a photography site but it's definitely not focused on softcore posing. There is a lot of dildo play, girl/girl action, and other insertion type action. The Directory's blog is continually updated keeping members informed on site happenings and changes.
Content exclusivity and quality have always been ALS's best assets. On the content quality front they've stepped things up in a few different ways. They've stopped the content rotation system which is a key improvement. There are now hundreds of videos available with new being high-res and some ultra high-res as well. Quality on the pictures has been improved with ultra hi-res formats on the newer additions. The quality is on par with the top level photo sites that lead the way in terms of pic/vid quality. Finally, the updates have been moved up to daily which will only lead to more growth.
Score increased from 86.6 to 89.0.
