Amateur seems to be word of the day these days. Today we got our Lexi, your Erotic Neighbor (apparently). Even better, this is the *official* site of Lexi, so we're in for a treat for sure ;-) Ok, enough poking fun... for now. Lexi's a pretty hot, dark-haired babe, and she's got all the amateur goodies you've come to expect and love. This 20-something Italian chick has got an interesting start in the porn world, which you should check out for sure.
I checked out her updates page in the member's area, and she tries hard to get something in there for each date. Unfortunately there's a lot of filler stuff in there to make it look better, but still it's nice to see something going on right off the bat.
Her photo galleries are divided up by what's going on. The biggest section is of course solo, but you can also check out some girl/girl, fetish, and hardcore action as well. In total, I'd say she has about 100 galleries available, which isn't too bad, but isn't great either. I had a hard time browsing around the site, since half the time a link opened in a new window, and the others it didn't. I'd accidentally close the window and have to browse back various times. The other big problem you'll see is the size of the pictures. They vary a lot for some reason, but in general I saw pics from 500x375 to 640x480 at their best. Even in the amateur world, this is a little small these days. The quality of the pictures ranged from actually pretty good, to almost too amateur. I think in general they have gotten better with time, so that's a good start. I prefer the sexy sets, if that even describes anything, as she can look really pretty. In some sets it's a little too raw looking for my likes.
The videos section wasn't huge, but it's better than nothing :) While there's a few clips in Real Video format, most are in Windows Media. Some of them have a high and low quality version, while others have just one setting. The best I saw it was at 350kbps, while the one-version clips were at 220kbps. Most of them feature hardcore or girl/girl action, which is just what I wanna see in video. Unfortunately the clips only looked ok, despite all the numbers looking good. I'm not sure if it's their camera, or something in their encoding, but they never looked real clear to me. Audio was hit or miss as well, as I had real quiet audio in one, perfect audio in another, and some midi song in yet another. I think the videos are a nice addition, but don't base your membership on 'em.
She's part of the CamZ network, and has two shows this week. I'm not sure if that's the norm, but nothing wrong with that! She's also part of the HouseCamZ thing (where girls have a few 24/7 cams in the house), and her videos were actually up and working which was a nice treat. Unfortunately no one was home, and all the blinds were closed so that wasn't any fun at the moment. She has a journal on LiveJournal that's semi-active (a lot more so than most amateur's journals are). She also has a lot of extra content around (even from some bigger sites like Bang Bus), but I kinda feel overwhelmed by it like it's a replacement for her own updates. I mostly get this feeling from her updates page, since most of the entries are for other people.
That's probably my biggest complaint here, is the lack of updates of our star, Lexi. Other than that, she has all she needs here for a decent site. I'd also love to see normal-sized pictures up (at least 800x600, if not bigger) sometime very soon. At $20 a month, it's right where most amateur sites are price-wise. Your attraction to the girl should play a big part of your decision to join a site like this, so definitely take a look around the tour. Otherwise, as I said, she's got everything she needs. Fix the two problems and I'll give it a much better score next time I see it ;-)

Wow, it's been quite a while since we visited this site last! I'm not quite sure how some of these girls keep at it for so long, but hopefully Lexi is having lots of fun along the way. There's more content of course, though not as much growth as you might expect. Updates do still come at least. Her webcam and journal are doing nicely as well which is good to see. Quality has been stepped up a bit of course, but then that's expected as time goes on. The site itself could use a refresher, but at least she's still cranking stuff out on her site here. It's a pretty good amateur site, with the interaction being the best part I'd say.
Score increased from 74.3 to 77.0.
