Wow, swingers must think the internet is the best thing since sliced bread. Think about it, a decade ago these people were just giving it away for free. Nowadays husband and wife teams who are into the swinger scene can run a website and make a few bucks while having their fun. That's definitely a win-win situation all the way around.
On the surface Vanilla's site looks pretty slick. In fact my first thought was that she was a pornstar rather than an amateur. She certainly has the right looks and name for that. I was also thinking Vanilla might not be participating in the day-to-day site activity. I was wrong though, in the member's area she has a daily updated daily weblog and does regular cam shows on AmateurCamHouse.com and Camz.com. Still, she does have some professional work under her belt, namely a pictorial in the July 2004 issue of Playboy (titled "Swing Time"). See, I told you she had the right look to be a pro.
Content includes the normal amateur fare including pictures, videos, and webcam shows (with archives). The pictures are divvied up into six sections: Vanilla Solo, Girl Sex, Guys & Threesomes, Group Sex, Fetish, and Parties & Events. As you can tell by the titles she's offering a nice variety from simple solo softcore to real hardcore banging with guys and girls. The Solo and Girl Sex categories have the largest percentage of material but personally I like the Party & Events the best since those pics are raw and spontaneous as opposed to some of the other posed action pics. The quality of the pics is good although they're not overly large at 800x600 or a touch smaller.
Nearly all the videos have some sort of hardcore be it girl/girl, boy/girl, or groups. About half (the older ones) are in downloadable Mpeg format while newer videos are streaming Windows Media with high and low speed options. Quality on these ranges from good down to a touch below average. I like that she offers both picture and video archives for past webcam shows right on her site. Thankfully you she makes it so you don't have to go scrounging around the webcam network to find her old shows. Not many amateurs do this and I bet members appreciate it.
You'll recognize some of the other girls that Vanilla bangs around with, a couple I saw were Seska and Kelly Madison. The amateur community is pretty tight knit like that. She does have a few bonus sites and a rather large amount of bonus video and bonus picture feeds, but it's all typical leased content. On a final note let me say I certainly like her daily updates of her weblog, the entries may not be lengthy but at least she's keeping in touch with members. Also her monthly calendar is pretty cool and includes her webcam show schedule along with personal trips and events. All in all if you can't resist Vanilla's looks then what she's offering should be enough to satisfy your curiosity.

Top to bottom Vanilla DeVille still has herself a solid amateur site - and a sharp looking one too. The small percent of amateurs who have professional designs really stand out from the crowd and Vanilla's falls into that category. The calendar section is also current with cam show appearances laid out for the upcoming month and daily additions are made to her blog which appears on the member's home page. With her mix of hardcore and softcore content she brings everything to the table that you'd expect from an amateur and it has grown into a sizable collection too. The one thing I'd like to see is dates on the content. Even the "My Newest Updates" and "Recent Updates" don't show specific dates. Judging by her constant interaction I'm not too worried about this but the absence of dates is still worth noting.
Score increased from 75.6 to 78.5.
