1. All exclusive content, I think.
2. Updates come regularly.
3. Pictures usually look decent.
1. Hardly any videos.
2. Site itself needs a re-design, and better navigation.
3. I wouldn't mind more info on the models.
4. Could use growth all around.
"Not too bad of a site, though I'd like to see some changes next time we're here." |

Ahh, Grace and Beauty, two the pillarstones of any good woman. It also happens to be the name of a website we're reviewing today. The tour offers up some nude glamour images which is just what you'd expect from a site called Grace and Beauty. The site itself is quite amateur in nature, complete with a repeating background image, and the only image being a simple title graphic. Links are text-based, and once you find the one for the join page you'll find the pricing at $18 recurring at $15 every month thereafter.
The member's area looks much the same, so no surprises there. They get straight to the point, and have links to about 37 galleries right on the member's splash page. They also have some text links to other gallery pages though (nine total), so make sure to hit those up to see the older galleries as well. The video "section" is quite a bit smaller, with only three of them up right now.
New photo galleries seem to come up once per week on average, which is okay but since it's just one photoset it's actually a little slow in my book. A lot of the content looks consistent, though some of it definitely does not, but they claim it's all exclusive material shot by the same guy. The actual galleries are displayed on a page with frames, with a small left one containing the thumbnails (which requires too much scrolling for my liking), and the right one containing a medium-sized image. These are 650x487 on average, and can be clicked to open up a new page with the full-size 1280x960 image as well. Picture quality is generally pretty nice overall, with good coloring and clarity. As mentioned before, some of the sets just don't look like they belong with bad coloring, lots of noise, etc.
With only three video clips, I won't get into them too much here. They come in both Windows Media Video and Quicktime options. Quality was decent but not great, and the WMV specs came back at 480x360 and 865kbps. More than anything, we just need a lot more of them to make this a viable section of the site.
So we've got quite a simple site here, in many aspects from the options to the design. They offer up exclusive content as far as I can tell, and usually it looks good enough. Beyond that, I think the site needs a little work still. More info, more options, more videos, and more content all around would definitely help. It's worth a look if you like what you see in the tour, but I can't give it a full recommendation quite yet.
