Wait, does that mean that if they're on a mobile device, they CAN'T read our profile?
That's kind of a problem. When they jump into private and demand anal, they could be justifiably pissed that you don't do anal, since they didn't have a profile there to tell them what you do and don't do...
No you can't. I tried it on an ipad over the weekend, and I couldn't see any of that. This was before the layout change, and I'm guessing its still the same. That is why so many guys ask what you do. I don't have my own ipad to check with though, since we are required to have i7s.

Haha I was joking about Streamate becoming web 2.0 a couple months ago. And they finally are! ISH
Welcome to the modern internet where don't just masturbate on their computers!
It just poked around on SM on my ipad. The stream loads fine on safari now, so you no longer need that shitty app. So profiles can be viewed now! That is what I'm super excited about. It's a little button with an I on it. It's hard to miss so they should make that stand out more.
Edit: it's seriously so fucking small.

I Just joined SM A few days ago Found these tips to be helpful. Although, I haven't had my first chat yet i feel like there is something missing. Bought a new camera with mic, new wireless keyboard, 4 bright colored outfits, I have 4 toys. do you think this is enough to keep their attention for now. would this be enough to start the show??
Towel and baby wipes, lol. My husband is usually in the room when I cam and in the 30 second countdown I'm usually like "Wipe! Stat!".

Wow! so less rooms per page are displayed (40 instead of 50), hmmm
Also categories are messed up, if u click on the button to see them they displayed under the searching by region/features buttons so not readable, guess they working on getting things done properly. Last row of introduction room text is also not readable. Not sure how i like the new layout...

I HATE the new SM layout (for computer). Only 4 girls per row. :(
I don't like that one bit either. I think the pictures are too large. The 5 per row was great.

What if they would make it one single page and customers could scroll and scroll. I'm assuming no one likes to click Next, and some members don't even realize there's more pages.

Yeah I'm not sure how I feel about the change either...I was just getting used to first page traffic (even though it was the last couple rows it was still better than being stuck on pages 3-5) plus it kicked me off a few times earlier so I just ended up logging off. Also I hate how it doesn't update the models online based on the category you're viewing, I used to use that to figure out when the best times to log on would be. But if it's too enhance mobile viewing I totally get that, let's just hope it doesn't bug out too much like a lot of the updates they have.

They may work out the kinks in a little bit. Give it time, see if they buff it out a little.
Also ladies, if they ask for our feedback give it to them. The greatest thing about the visual media is that it evolves. Think about how the internet used to look in 1999. Think about how magazines 40 years ago used to look like. I think it looks more cleancut and marketing towards "generation x"
But let them know you don't like how there is less models to view per page or that the 5 per row seemed like a great balance.
Also I want to mention I'm having a bad pain day and had to take a vicodin. I'm a little loopy. Sorry if the was utter jibber jabber.

the new layout allows for customers to select 100 models per page and I am guessing most customers will select this option...it could be a good thing but what do I know :D

You can still go to cammodels.com and see how many are on in each category.

I know this is probably late news, but just logged on and saw the new layout. OMG, whyyyyy? Me no like, it looks way too "loud" for my tastes. I mean how is a horny guy that's ready to bust his nut, gonna search through all this visual overload? He's gonna get discombobulated as heck. They had a hard enough time using the old layout. Sorry, just my personal opinion. Also, is it going well tonight? Anyone getting kicked off or stream slow? I'm planning to log on tonight. Thanks.

visual overload?
This is what I agree with. ^^^
I don't dislike it for streamate. I pray White labels including Cammodels stay the same
I'm assuming you've never actually seen a processor chip out of a computer before
This is a processor chip the bumpy side snaps into a computers motherboard and gets hot when its on. If it gets too hot you can permanently damage them because if they get too hot you can melt the silicon circuitry and break them .

Sorry sorry, i've misunderstood you. I'm extremely tired so I don't know how to read anymore. Yeah, I know how they work and all. That's what I said, if you have a computer which doesn't heat up like crazy, it can be done. But you're right, you need to be sure about what you're about to do. The liquid system sounds cool, but it works better on PC, doesn't? I work with a laptop, it's been ages though I don't play with the inside of a PC.
I've just saw it... ughhh SM noooo wth is that????? i'm not they will hear our feedback, they just care about the $$$

Ladies, how much would you say % in paid chat matters in terms of placement? I've been online a lot today but only pulled in like $23, and my % in paid tanked to like 5% and it's making me want to cry >.< I'm scared to log back on because I don't want it to get worse lol It's making me want to lower my rates a bit to possibly get more shows but I was enjoying my $4.49/$5.49 -_-

% in paid matters but hours worked also matters. Ratings also count. I'd probably be the wrong person for this but I don't care about placement. Whether my paid % is high or low, my placement stays the same. You only need one big daddy to make it rain!

was tonight really slow for anyone else? after i spent my first hour with only $3 and some change i went on cb and mfc and had a fairly good two hours. I was sitting in an empty room most of the hour on sm and normally when things are bad on sm theyre also bad on other sites i go too - so im thinking it has something to do with this new layout. not trying to be negative but wanting to know if it was just me or if it was slow for anyone else ? new things like this always freak me out about coding instability with the site also the fact that the niches and specialty cams are hidden in a secret drop down now does have me a tad concerned now.... i really wish they would put it back on the side. if this change cuts into my money im going to have to consider dropping sm .
STREAMATE REPS - WE KNOW YALL READ THIS THREAD PUT THE NICHE AND SPECIALTY CAMS PANEL BACK ON THE LEFT !
thank you

Yeah, I'm NOT feeling this new fad/"gallery porn site" look that IML and SM have come up with lately. It's too large and in your face with the visuals but the wording is small and like snowy mentioned, the niche tags are under categories at the top. Ummm I understand that men are visual but come on now...it looks horrible (IMHO). I've noticed that sites like pp and payoneer and a few other sites are also changing up their looks with this cheap in your face wordpress-y looking theme and I hate them. Oh well, some change is inevitable. I suppose we'll just have to get creative with our photos and no longer relying on our room tags and headlines to get the guys in our room :/ I'm hoping my SEO tagging efforts won't go to shit because now they have to move their cursor over our pics to see our wording and I noticed it's cutting off for some. If an SPH guy can't see the words SPH under a photo he might skip over to the next girl. Do...not...LIKEEE!

Streamate has a code-base full of a billion glitches and yet again instead of fixing the things that don't work --- they choose to change something that does.

I do not like the new layout….and Snowy it has been fairly dead for me too. The traffic comes and goes but filled with a lot of freeloaders. I had one pretty decent Exclusive a bit ago which helped me and I feel I have some energy back now. When it's dead I get the life sucked out of me!
Hope the night goes well for everyone =)

I'd like to see a scrolling header, or a scrolling vertical box listing the topics from the header at the top. One of my pet peeves is a website that doesn't have quick links at the bottom of the page and only at the top. But honestly if this keeps tablet users connected I really don't care what the site looks like. All I keep thinking about are the many guys who go private but complain about the quality of the connection. If this fixes that then my money should increase when I do log in.

I agree the endless scrolling would be good. Also instead of having to click "categories" they could just be up at top by default. This is good for browsing because dudes will immediately see what they are looking for, or be like...hey redhead/mature/bbw....might check that out even if it wasn't his original intention.
Love that the star ratings for comments are gone because it was annoying having a 3 star on there with a comment when I get 5 stars most of the time.

Maybe it's me but I don't get the excitement for the models per page as it was always apart of SM. It was just on the right hand side at the bottom of the page and not the left. I suppose it's going to be the 'battle of the first page' because the way it's set up; all that asscandy is too much to handle for one guy. These guys are going to scroll down to about the middle of the page and just pick someone because it's too much to take in :P
