While my BF Collection is rather small (no boyfriends that I know of), the collection at BF Collection is anything but. The site may be deceptively simple, but once inside it's definitely not your average naked dude site. It may look a bit familiar if you've checked out any other sites of theirs we've reviewed before (Karup's PC and Karup's Hometown Amateurs). $30 will get you in the door, which is a bit of cash to lay down for one site, but probably worth it.
Inside the site is pretty simple as well, as simple as it can be for all the content they've loaded in here. There's almost not enough in the way of navigation features if you ask me. They break things down into softcore photos, hardcore photos, and videos. From there, guess as to which of their many gallery sections you want to head into, and hopefully you'll find something you like.
Once you do pick a gallery, it's pretty much as I expected. They have decent-looking content available here - and a lot of it. While I don't think they shoot this stuff themselves, most all the pictures say they are exclusive to the site. There are no extras such as model info (though they now have a model's index to find your favorite guys easier), but what they lack in options, they make up for in quantity. Zip files are available here, though you have to download quite a few per gallery. Otherwise, the content is pretty decent with decent-sized pictures usually (1024x78, though it varies a lot) mostly in amateur-style galleries.
The video section is setup almost identical, which is good for continuity but bad for navigation and finding things you want. Once you do, most scenes come in a couple of clips (unless they're shorter already I guess), and most always in Windows Media Video format. Video size is usually 320x240 (though I saw a couple 640x480 as well) and 1000kbps, which means the videos look decent as well.
They add a new gallery every two days, and each gallery contains several photo or video sets, so updates are quite good. The site itself could use a makeover for sure; a new design and a bit more expansive navigational options would help the site a lot. Otherwise, you've got yourself a large collection of content here (that's growing quite rapidly) which can never be a bad thing. The content covers a bit of everything, and the quantity is what you're paying for here. Another good site from these guys.

Review: 12-06-06 |
Well it looks like business as usual at BF Collection. I wonder how many followup reviews I've started off with that very same sentence? It fits the bill here as they seem to be chugging away as expected. Updates are still consistent and the site is larger than ever. The site still feels a bit plain, and navigation could still use more work (though they did add a few category options in the softcore section only). Otherwise, I think much of my original review remains true today, and I'm sure the score will reflect that. It's a great stop for some gay content, with just so much original material.
Score decreased from 85.4 to 83.5.
