I cannot login into my customer account on sm, since the "log-in" button has dissappeared. Hopefully it is still there for some other people to get inside and buy shows..
Someone else got custies who has sound problems yesterday? I got multiple guys who told me they coudnt hear my sound anymore when they where inside pvt, back to free chat it worked fine again

I'm seeing 5 across for the past couple of days. I love the new layout too. The category button is pretty obvious. I like the more visual focus. It looks like it's designed to merge in design with Windows 8, Twitter has done something similar.

I think its self adjusting to the screen resolution. I have a dual screen setup one of them is 13 or 15 inch screen monitor and the other is a 32 inch tv . The monitor always shows me 4 boxes per row but then when i drag my chrome window in the tv it turns into 5 boxes per row. so i guess 'exposure' at this point will depend on the guys screen size and his settings of models displayed per page.

I looked at it with my ~40" flatscreen monitor and it was showing 5. Not sure what the screen resolution is though. Will have to check when I get in to the studio!

OK I have a dumb question that I haven't seen the answer to and I've been on Streamate for years. Why does the main page sometimes display our profile pics and other times an ugly snap of our live chat? What determines what shows?

It shows your profile pic when you first log on and then shows snap shots of your room after a while. If you email support you can have a static profile picture all the time if you ask them.

I think I have my Tvs settings set pretty big so everything is fairly small otherwise everything is displayed too big on my screen and its hard use it.

Does anyone think there is any benefit to showing live snaps as opposed to static profile pics? I'm sure they do it to create a more dynamic appearance to the site but I'm not fond of being caught making an ugly face or scratching my nose or something.

Nope, I had mine switched to static as soon as I found out you could! And I think it helps draw guys into my room, especially if you make your profile pic something that will draw them in...like a closeup of your tits or ass or whatever draws guys to you ;) No more "caught with ugly face expressions" for me lol.

Most of us have static pik for that reason. And I think it draws more guys in with a static pik because piks were planned and tend to look a lot nicer IMO. the ones who dont use static pik always look boring just chilling in their room witch is what most of us do but you want to give them a reason to click ur room in the first place then into the pvt with ur hustle. not saying u didnt know that last part but thats the "science" of it =^y^=

A static pic is best because I have yet to see a sexy hot pic in mid motion. Also they can hover over our pics to see what we are doing before they enter the room. If they have a credit card on file. I wish all sites had static pics.

None whatsoever. Even the most beautiful people look weird if you snap a pic of them while they're talking or making a facial expression that would look perfectly fine while they're in motion. Also, they tend to do a pic very shortly after you come back from your 30 second countdown, and most of the time I haven't even gotten back on screen yet.

Ugh, I wish there was just something we could click on to get it static, instead of waiting for days for support to get back to me. Why didn't I take care of this years ago? I'm such a flake sometimes.

There's a bullshit "guys like to see what's happening in your room!" reason to keep the live stills, but really, in that tiny snapshot what are the chances we're gonna look better than a posed selfie? & if your pic is the same each time, customers will recognise you quickly as they're scanning the page.


Thanks to whoever helped me pray to the SM goddess/cat/unicorn that I would be re-approved quickly, I'm all set to do a shift tomorrow and earn some pennies. Woo.

I have no idea if there was a change in my money, but I sure as hell stopped wasting time worrying about what I was doing when that stupid 3-2-1 countdown happens. One less thing to worry about has to be helpful. As long as your profile pictures are high quality, and I can't imagine that having a static photo would hurt your money.

I've never seen this countdown of which you speak. I think I might recall it from years ago but my memory is crap. Perhaps I'm already static? I never asked for it though.

**Can anyone confirm if you've seen me in live still pics before, or just my static pic?**

I get paid to be fat, and my guys love it. Everyone's preferences vary, everyone's experiences vary. What might work for one might not for another. The best advice is to FIND your niche, and monetize off of what you are good at. The girl next door look is ok for some, while being fit may for another. For me, being fat and fluffy is what sells for me. I can make money with a face full of make up and I can make money naturally. Your attitude is everything.

There is no set time that seems to be consistent with when to make the most money. The key is being on when that 1 or few customers that love to spend money are on. It's hit and miss. You just have to keep trying and be ready for them. I know, it's hard to smile after an 8 hr shift of making chump change... but he doesn't deserve the residual attitude of dealing with bullshitters all day. You never know who that big time contributor will be.

Happy Camming ladies!

You still get the countdown even if you have a static pic (it just doesn't mean anything). It's in the upper right in the dark grey bar, right above the spot where you choose Party Chat or Classic Chat. They do the countdown when you start streaming, too, to let you know when you've gone live. It's not flashy or anything, so it would be easy to miss.

I don't think I've ever seen a live pic of you, but I've also never looked for one either.

All of the girls on page one are new to me they all have pro looking pics and I am used to seeing some weird first page pics and its like all the old 1st pagers from last week are gone wth? I check placement constantly so I always usually see the same girls everyday on the 1st page. So strange.

I'm in the same place on the 1st page as I usually am, and I'm seeing all the same girls that are usually around me. No difference for me since the layout change.

I agree the live stills are pointless. Especially since if you are logged into a members account and you hover over a girls pic, it shows you her room live without him even having to enter the room! Which, I kinda hate because they can just sit there and view the room without actually being IN the room.

So wait.... most of you don't chat in free chat with sound? Hmmm...

Is SM the mecca for mommy/son RP? I tell I don't know how many ask for that every day despite the fact I have "No Taboo" in my room topic.

I have a problem that occasionally guys will go to pvt but I don't get the alert or see their name up there.. When they click out then I get the alert and see that they were there. Anybody else have this happen?

I waited for about 6 months to re-join Streamate. I had to wait for my old icamz studio contract to expire. I'm finally back!

I just submitted all of my legal information and filled out my profile. I'm currently awaiting approval.

I'm so nervous. I was not expecting to be this nervous! I got all new equipment and everything, I'm really excited and hope it works out.

I want to make a lot more than $5.99/minute, but I guess I'll keep that as my rates until I can charge for higher @ $7.99.

This might sound silly, but they could be reading "no taboo" as "there are no taboos! anything goes!" or they may be trolling for a reaction specifically because you've mentioned it. Try taking it out of your room topic & see what happens.

^^^ Believe me SM reads the 'taboo' word not the 'NO' word before it lol, it was the same for me, i wrote 'NO Anal' in my room topic and all i got was anal guys lol, till i figured out the thingy took a while; now i dont write anything i DONT do, just what i do actually.

I'm willing to bet that things are so slow this week due to the updates on the site. A lot of guys having trouble staying logged in, or getting kicked out and just not much traffic overall. I took some days off this week and now I'm just trying to make payout for the week. It's a rough one...sigh.

If someone keyword searches "taboo" then your profile is listed in the results, so they think it's safe to assume that taboo is something you offer.

^He might have accessed the site through a whitepage, cammodels.com, been linked directly to you, been using a proxy, or it could be just a plain old glitch. :( I'm resigned to geo restrictions failing me but have still blocked the three towns closest to me.

Join the club! I made payout on Sunday. Did my make up, looking WHOREGEOUS for Tuesday, Wednesday. Got on for 15 minutes and had to log off. I just couldn't deal with this week.

I'm willing to bet that things are so slow this week due to the updates on the site. A lot of guys having trouble staying logged in, or getting kicked out and just not much traffic overall. I took some days off this week and now I'm just trying to make payout for the week. It's a rough one...sigh.

Yes, sis! When you're gorgeous, all you get is just that. Gorgeous. When you're WHOREGEOUS, you get THAT and $$$!

All of the girls on page one are new to me they all have pro looking pics and I am used to seeing some weird first page pics and its like all the old 1st pagers from last week are gone wth? I check placement constantly so I always usually see the same girls everyday on the 1st page. So strange.

Perhaps SM decided it's not good for business to have the same faces on the front page all the time. This could be a bonus for the lesser placed models who never see the front page. I'll find out later on as I haven't worked since they changed it on Monday.

Has ever a producer tip any of you during the countdown for a TV Goldshow? It has never happened me before, but today a producer tipped 10 gold during the countdown, in my earnings show as Tv compensation but usually I get that when I donīt reach the goal. I donīt know if itīs usual, but itīs never happened before...Maybe to entice others to tip?

Marina you and your gifs always put a smile on our faces, and I think that after a tough week we all need that smile and that whoregeous feeling. Thank you.

^Well, thank you for the positivity, but I was thinking something more like he/she was so sure the goal was not going to happen that he/she decided to compensate before LOL

That means so much to me! Smiling and feeling WHOREGEOUS is indeed the perfect COCK-tail!

I had it happen ages ago, I think it was to entice others to tip, but silly girls were like "thank you Producer!" kinda takes away the point of doing it. I'm sure guys just thought Producer was a member's username though.

I'm sorry so many ladies are having a rough time this week - seems like it's even hitting the top row chicas.

I'm not in any way trying to brag or make anyone feel bad, but I wanted to let you guys know that there's hope. I had a pretty good night tonight, even though my placement was a bit lower than usual b/c I haven't been on much in the past few weeks. It wasn't a stellar night for me, but absolutely nothing to feel disappointed about, either.
Keep your chin up, ladies! We can roll with the punches, and the money is still out there for the taking!

Hello girls !

I was thinking of trying SM too and got approved this week but, when I went on Tuesday, itwas really, awfully slow and empty... I know my computer isn't up to date, so I'll wait to make the money (somewhere else) to buy something better and try again..

I was wondering, is there still such thing as a "new girl status" ? And what does that mean ? Thank you <3
