Is variety the spice of ... pictures?

I just saw yet another thread with a bunch of web cam images of the poster's cock. Each picture was virtually identical to the last - same angle, same lighting, same clothing (his cock was poking out of his boxers), and same state of turgidity.

Ok, fine. So this guy wants to show off. I understand that. What I don't understand is the steady stream of compliments on the thread. Are there really so many people on this forum that find a blurry cock so amazingly interesting that not one person is willing to ask for something more? Ok, I can understand if someone posts a single picture of a body part and that sets up for the tease, but twenty indentical shots of the same subject is really lame.

Can we please have some variety around here? Am I the only one who feels this way?
 
Well... I just checked out your pictures and I find them far more interesting than a blurry web cam pic of a cock....

Personally I like a bit of variety, bare chested and in jeans is very nice... if said jeans are undone and a tempting glimps of the treasure trail... or even a hand heading down inside... mmmmm very nice.

There is more to a man's body than just a hard cock.
 
Here here.

Some pictures on here make me want to bring up my lunch, repeatedly.

"here are some pics of me.....all fourteen of my cock from 14 different angles" uses all the imagination of breeze block. Please, even take a view shots with clothing on, tease us, dont give all yourself away, let our imaginations run away with us.

Come on boys, for us girls eh! and some of the girls on here, just be a little less open-all-hours....

Remember, it's not just the men who are guilty of lack of imagination. Some of the female Lit members do the same thing. Of course, the men looking at those pics don't help by continually asking for more pussy and tits. At least the women viewers seem to appreciate when someone shares something more than gynecological anatomy.

Almost forgot ... thank you! :)
 
Thought I'd join in with this... :eek: ...I have to admit that the wider selection of shots, especially if there's more than just the more 'up, close and personal' ones, then the more interesting I find a thread...
I try to vary the shots I take on my own thread...as I know how boring seeing the same shots over and over again can be...don't know successful I am but at least I try... :D
And Ekserb...fantastic shots by the way on yours... :rose: ...but I'm fairly certain you get told that all the time... :)

Now you see your pictures are spot on, variety, teasing, a little something for everyone. Good for you, that's what its all about!

and, by the way, you are so beautiful...but I guess you get told that a lot too!

I couldn't agree more. Nothing turns me off to a thread quicker than the prospect of seeing the same image time and time again. If I want to see the same picture of a pussy or cock, I'll just stare at one photo all day.

Thank you so much! Like you, I try.
 
I also support the call for variety, especially from men. I barely glance at their threads now as I've come to expect the same, boring, one-angle cock shots. (I'm shying away from women's threads as I'm not seeing the appeal of repetitve gyno and tit shots). I'm also dismayed and confused by folks who post every shot and often wonder if they look at the pictures before posting them.

Some of them are actually nice looking cocks, but once I've seen them, I don't need (or want) to see them again and again from the same angle, in the same state--that's pointless and annoying.

I'd be slightly pleased to see some shots of it bulging inside the boxers before he pulls it out. However, I would prefer shots of other body parts as well: shoulders, chest, the pelvis, lips, hands. Also, a (nicely) dressed body would work. Now, I realize some guys don't feel the utmost confidence in their bodies, but I seriously hope their confidence isn't so low they believe only their cocks are worth viewing.

I'm not asking for professionalism--they're supposed to be amateur pictures afterall--just some real effort.

I'm not one to quote pop culture, but George Carlin had a line about babies that I'll paraphrase here: Cocks and pussies are just like the people they're attached to - a few winners and a whole lotta losers.

So, what do you consider yourself? A winner or a loser?
I know my answer to my question.

I would never stoop to pronounce my own status in this regard, nor would I request validation from anyone else, especially on this site.

Your thread caught my eye...and just wanted to say...I am in total agreement. I understand that many people are "visual"...but personally, I like my visuals to spark a bit of the imagination too...find it to be much more erotic that way...but that's just my humble opinion. Thanks for the affirmation that I'm not alone in my way of thinking...:kiss:

Not only are you not alone, it appears there are a few of us around here. Let's here it for variety and imagination!

This is an amateur picture forum. People are here to have fun. Please respect that. I would respect your opinion if this was a paid site or something. .....a blurry cock thread isnt going to hurt anyone.

Cheers,
Liz

And here I thought this was The Darkroom Lounge, where everything can be discussed. I now see that an open mind is only required if you aren't one of the "in crowd."

Liz, I love your argument: This is a forum where people are supposed to have fun and I'm supposed to respect that, but you will not respect my opinion. Nice. How am I supposed to react to that kind of logic?

Do me a big favour..and don't. :rolleyes:
My problem with you is not your opinions, it's is you arrogence. You come of like you're supierior to all of us. Truth is..I couldn't care less what you think of my pics. :rolleyes:

So, you don't agree that a lot of threads are just the same poses and angles over and over again? Or maybe you agree that they are repetitive and boring, but you enjoy that kind of thing. Okay, your opinion is noted. Thanks for participating!

I just appreciate the fact that people post their wonderful pics, period. Therefore, I do not judge their techniques. If we judge everyone instead of just accepting and appreciating their efforts, my guess is people would cease to post.

And you know what? THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT I WANT TO HAPPEN! I would like to see one or two pictures of a hard cock or dripping pussy, not a hundred taken within a ten minute time frame. If there is no significant difference between one picture and another, why post both? If you're going to post two pictures that are essentially the same, don't bother taking the second picture ... just post the same one again and again. Since it makes no difference to you if they are good or bad, similar or not, I would think you would just post "wonderful" comments after each and every re-post. I mean, you wouldn't dare to judge them for their technique, right?

For the last time, I never said I didn't want to see lousy pictures (although some are pretty poor). My original post was whether or not people wanted to see some variety instead of the same pictures over and over and over again.

So in order to address me, you just had to highlight my grammar mistakes. Or in my case, typos. :rolleyes:

Roll your eyes all you want, but you did manage to type this response with no errors. I guess my silent critique worked.

When you accept mediocrity, people will always live down to that expectation. When you expect people to excel, they strive to achieve.
