Tabitha's Toybox.com is the official website of porn star Tabitha Stern, a petite blonde haired, puffy nippled young vixen with a quite a resume going, including many Vivid Video's as well as, Hustler movie & magazine appearances, Playboy TV appearances, and more. She's got quite a design layout for her site as well, looking like a child’s toy box, this isn't your average playpen, no, this is 5,700+ sexy images and a handful of videos, plus a good amount of extras here, all waiting for you to play to. If you're one of Tabitha's many fans or just can't get enough of these incredible porn vixens, then $24.95/month shouldn't bee too much to squander up, I shouldn't think? But first let us make sure it's worth it.
Tabitha's site is painted pinks and blues, with multi-colored toy blocks for menu options and many of them: photo; video; behind (the scenes); featuring (gigs); featured girls; extras; bio; work (resume); journal; schedule; chat; artwork, etc. I checked out her schedule first, I wanted to see how often this bad girl was updating/making appearances and it appears as though she's not, for the whole month of January at least. I'm not sure about updates, but in December of last year, she had 2 chats scheduled for the whole month, I certainly hope her site is updated more than that. Her last journal update was on January 2nd, to wish all of her fans a happy new year. That's very sweet of her, but where's she been the rest of the moth? Last month she updates 4 times, which still isn't much, but at least she updated at least once with a hot sex encounter on her bathroom counter just after a bath. She also mentioned back in December that she was having surgery for her endometriosis that had been resulting in constant pain and irritability and confessed that she had been neglecting her site for those reasons. She promised to back and working on it again, as soon as she had recovered. In that case, I would have expected to see more going on this month?
Maybe the photos will make up for the lack of action to be found elsewhere on the site. They are nicely archived into galleries with a preview thumb and description for each. There are 8 pages worth of galleries, 10 to a page in chronological order from newest to oldest. Her last update, on January 5th, was taken from a photo shoot for Cheergirls.com, and features Tabitha looking young a stylish in a high school cheerleader outfit with pompoms and a backpack to boot. Images are previewed 9 thumbs at a time and it's not long before Tabitha is naked and doing the splits-- that's hot! These images are available in 2 image sizes (640x361 & 800x451), not huge but they are of good quality, though I don't like the background much, what can you do? Although image size tends to vary from set to set, images have been offered in two viewing sizes for quite some time now and though it adds a nice touch to the site to be able to have that option, I can only wish that she keep them more consistent and on the larger side. I found some image sets that had an option for 768x1024, which was nice but the quality was affected quite a bit so the novelty of it being so large was diluted by the lack in quality thereof. On the plus side, image sets are imaginative and well thought out. With cute little outfits, sexy sensual ones, and the every-day-girl sets thrown in here and there, as well as quite a few featuring Tabitha with her main man, Jace. Her content comes from a number of places, mostly its content shot for another site/company, therefore you can expect to potentially find some of these image galleries on another site.
Though Tabitha does have sex on still cam for photo shoots, it's the real action that we want to see from a pornstar which is why I am a little discontent that her site only has 9 videos to speak of, with more coming soon, we hope- at least she's having sex in all of them! Tabitha's videos stream using Windows Media and feature sex, sex, and more sex, sex in the bathroom, sex n the bed, even sex on a bench near some bushes-- I watched that one first. 3 of the videos, so far, are offered in two speeds for broadband connections (314k) and for slower connections (57k). Her last video update was on May 22, '03, which was a good month for movies here; I wonder what has happened since? Even when the videos are offered for larger connection speeds, the sound and picture is only average, maybe a 314k stream. The good news for you Tabitha Stern fans is: that you get to see her having sex on cam in some "homemade" type movies. Watch as she sucks her mans' dick while he plays with her puffy nipples. She's got the face of an angel, the body of a young woman, and the nastiness of a whore, the way she sucks and fucks for the camera. Movies can be as long as 20 minutes, but are often closer to 6 and the movies that have no option for connection speed usually stream at 242k and are slightly grainy at times, however still very watch able. I wouldn't even bother with the slower connection speed movies, unless you're really barely moving on the Internet.
Listed separately are the behind the scenes galleries, though they are viewed exactly the same as her photo's. With just about 3 pages worth of content here from July to November of last year ('03), behind the scenes sets feature Tabitha out at parties, doing website photo shoots, and making appearances. These images give you a more in-depth look at what it's like and what it takes to be Tabitha Stern. Most of these images don't feature sex, or even a lot of nudity at times, but are more of an offering to her fans since often times, these picture feature her with some of her fans. Also with these bonus images comes the part of the site called featuring where you get a chance to see more of these gigs and feature appearances. There are currently 4 image sets and 2 videos in this section and they give you an inside look at Tabitha getting ready to and actually feature dancing and hanging out at strip clubs with the other dancers. Extras include live feeds and video feeds from places such as HomeGrown and Naughty Girls Live, as well as artwork done by Tabitha herself, quite impressive I must add, and a place to chat. Like mentioned earlier, her schedule doesn’t show any updates or appearances for this month, but so far I know of at least one photo gallery and journal update, so we know something's being tended to. I think she's got a great site with an especially great site design. I hope to see more frequent updates, many more movies, larger image sizes, and more site/fan interaction to come; all these things would greatly improve the value of her site.

For a site that I gave more cons than pro's to, I look back now over a year later and think - "Why the 78 score?" And although there still aren't a lot of videos here, that appears to be the only section of the site that's seen some growth since we were here last, however small. That is, of course, unless you count the Friends Photos portion of her site, but I don't. Nope, there hasn't been a single image of Tabitha herself added, no cams shows and no journal entries since October 2004 and even then it's barely a complete sentence. What really sucks is that I have no room to add more negatives here. Tabitha, Tabitha...oh wherefore art thou Tabitha? I understand that the price of the site is on the lower end, but with no updates, schedules or pornstar in site, it's really hard to recommend this one.
Score decreased from 76.4 to 71.5.

One of my pros for this site was for site design, but I'm not sure why. Although nice enough, it's nothing great. In fact, it looks like they made a new homepage for the member's area, although all of the content pages go back to the old design, which I think I liked better. In anycase, the real question here - is she updating!? And the answer is - yes and no. There's been a couple of new videos added recently but the image content hasn't seen anything since May. She does write in her diary somewhat but cam shows are still a no-go. It's ups and downs overall for this one and Tabitha's score will likely stay put.
Score increased from 71.5 to 72.6.
