The room I cam from (my bedroom) has got one medium-sized window and it is located exactly behind me when I cam, and I know in order to achieve beautiful, decent natural-light it should be exactly in front of me (I use a PC so it's not like I can move around with a laptop).

It's really annoying because I'm a big fan of natural lighting. Is there some trick I can use? Something to put over the window? Next to it? Haha I don't know, anything. :(

They are called "blackout curtains" that you can use to block the light. Make sure you get one that fits the window correctly so it will block everything. I'm not sure if you can find them in the store but they definitely sell them online.

Thanks, but I don't want to block the light. I just want it to be not as dazzling as it seems when it's right behind me. I know I can just use the blinds, but then it's too shady.

I have a window directly behind me also... it doesn't seem to hurt my lighting as long as I use other lights behind the computer as well. I use the reveal bulbs and it's great at mimicking the daylight.

Try placing lamps opposite of the window too, and see if that helps.

Oh I see. You can use a sheer curtain to diffuse it? Streamate made this Tumblr post about 3 point lighting, so if you can diffuse the window light maybe that can be your "back" lighting and then use lamps for the other 2 points. Maybe this well help: http://streamate.tumblr.com/post/50510906665/effective-lighting-for-live-cams

^^^ Looks like ur PC is working harder with the built in camera, i assume maybe u use higher quality settings on that camera? Picture size, frames per second, so on? Have a look when u select the built in cam, check all settings on encoder, see if parameters change.

I think you are right! I use the same setting for my built in camera and my logitech cam.

When you send an e-mail from your cell phone (using your Yahoo! e-mail account), does the recipient see both the "Sent from my LG phone" signature and your Yahoo! e-mail signature (which was my Twitter URL)? Or do they only see "Sent from my LG phone" as the signature? I was sending a file to someone earlier, and didn't send it from my primary e-mail account like I had thought. I sent it from my cam-related e-mail. *facepalm*

I know that AOL Mail used to have a feature where you could actually UNSEND an e-mail you've sent. I wish Yahoo! Mail had that.

custies are recognizing me from when i escorted on SM and i dont care and i dont know if i should. Some guys have said theye actually been serviced from me and was wondering what happened to me and others just have seen my ads before. This was when I was in San Diego and I'm on the east coast now so its not a safety thing or anything like that.

Haha I don't know, anything. :(Go get a mirror, put it in front of you, behind your cam, facing the window. Maybe it will catch and reflect the natural sunlight. I would try hard to set up a desk in front of the window if I were you.

You could always just have a 'happy hour' and drop your rates for that hour and see how it goes. That way you have no problem going back to your old rates afterward. ;)

I think that's an awesome idea (SM room topic: 11 PM-12 AM EST is Happy Hour! 25% off exclusive per minute rate!). Would you mind if I were to borrow that idea sometime?

I have another question . How do you look at the screen with your but facing the cam? i got a lot of cam shows last night requesting ass view and while ive been managing its a pain. Last night i had a guy who wanted me to spread my ass and our convo went something like this

spread ass
i use one hand to spread out one ass check one hand on the chair to balance myslef so i was turned to the side so i can still see the screen
two hands
i turn completely around not looking at the screen gave it a few seconds before i let go of one check so i can turn around and check for new text from him
on knees
i go on my knees spreading one check so i can turn around and look at the screen.
then he leaves

and when i'm doing anal the only way i can make it work so i can perform and turn so i can see the screen is have one hand on the dildo and one hand on the back of the chair have my leg bent at the knee with my knee on the seat of the chair and the other foot on the floor . the other day i had a guy leave i think because i was asked to spread my ass with my other hand and i said no i cant because i need to keep that hand that wasnt holding the dildo on the chair for balance because he left right after i said that.

05-22-2013, 06:21 AM
I feel like I have to occasionally look at the screen...otherwise how are you gonna know what the guy is asking for (unless his cam's on and you can hear him talk)? If I go too long without seeing what's on the screen, I could be missing out on quite a few of his questions/statements. And then he might end the session if he feels he's being ignored.

So if you're doing an ass-spreading show, for example, I'd say you should glance back at the screen like every 10 seconds, just so you can still read what he's saying.

Bending your body like a pretzel isn't very fun...lol. A while back some guy on MFC took me private, and had a very odd position he wanted me to fuck myself in. *facepalm* He was one of those guys who thinks he knows what's best for a woman, and knows the trick to making her cum like she's never cum before. *rolls eyes*

is it ok to stop doing what im doing to look at the screen then start again? i must have some kind of weird abnormal body because i cant do anything with my ass while looking at the screen because of the way i have to turn and balance myself to look at the screen.

In my opinion, yes. If the guy doesn't like that, hey, it's not your fault he doesn't have a webcam (so y'all can talk instead of type)...lol.

If you're doing a show where you're supposed to use a dildo, starting and stopping repeatedly would not be cool. So in that case, get into a position where you can see the screen without having to break your neck/back reading it...lol.

A guy who's really picky about doing 'ass-facing-the-cam' shows should really just get himself a webcam and c2c with you. It makes your job easier, in this case. :P

thats what i was doing - being in positions that i can show my ass and look at the screen but those two incidents i mentioned in post 576 had me wondering if there was another way i could do it to give a better performance i'll keep doing what im doing then and fuck em if theyre being a picky pig : P

05-22-2013, 07:34 AM
Having a 2nd screen is great but if u dont have one u can manage without by keeping the screen at ur left or right side when u work or move camera when u get a show, that's how i do it. I keep camera in one position when in freechat and when i get a show i move camera in a position where i can perform also being able to watch the screen, i anyway DO NOT recommend doing toy shows and complicated positions IN A CHAIR, chair should be used just to sit on while in freechat but when u get a show u should move to bed/ sofa, big couch, floor, somewhere where u are safe to play.
Doing shows in chair especially toying in doggy position can be very dangerous, especially if u got an office chair with wheels, u can fall anythime and injure urself.

Hey girls,

I got a question, so I was giving Imlive a try, I read through the happy hour feature and it said they pay $7.5 flat fee regardless if any guest joins my chat. So if a guy comes in, does that mean I get payed per $7.5 plus however he spends in my room? Or is it flat meaning that I wont get any additional income?

Thnx

If the site allows it and one is happy to do it, then however much you feel is worth it. Personally I would need hundreds of monies (MY CUT) before even contemplating that, because a) vomitting is not my favourite hobby, b) I would stink for ages even after several showers.

Yep I suggested adding the shower time needed after puking to the price. She is indie so site won't matter.

So I have a bank account and I have a vanilla part time job that I get direct pay to. I was wondering if I should just get another bank account for camming and such things or do a savings account? Everything I get from camming I would like to save for the future and try and live off of my part time job (I live at home so it's possible). I do know I have to pay taxes that's why I was wondering if I should do another account. Just any feedback or ideas would be appreciated.

Yeah, well... in retrospect, it does obviously seem insane, but don't forget that this video (which is a part of a DVD) was not made to be seen by millions and become some sort of a meme. It was basically just another extreme-fetish scene shot for an extreme-fetish DVD by a company who does exactly that all of the time. The girls are Brazilian, so, yeah, there's a good chance $500 are pretty decent money for them.

It reminds me that about two years ago my SO showed me a Brazilian clips4sale fetish store which had things you wouldn't believe... like, there's this one tiny-tiny-fragile chick (she can't weigh more than 40 kilos) who they always "abuse", like forcing an obese girl to ride her pony-style across the room, and he said once in a certain video another girl intentionally broke her arm and you could -really- see and hear it.

For some reason, I have a feeling they get less than $500 for that...

If your trying to keep it separate - the money from camming and your vanilla job i do think its a good idea. and yes since you do have to pay taxes maybe even a third : vanilla/actual income from camming/camming taxes , unless you never plan on even touching the camming for awhile you can lump the camming money and taxes all in the same account. what you would do is make a separate account for camming calculate the taxes out and just pull all that out come taxes time when you get ur 1099. payoneer is what most cam girls use if ur never planning on touch ur camming ever until its "time" just sign up for payoneer get ur money loaded onto it automatically.

why are fetish role plays so picky and expect you to know everything?

i have it in my topic on sm that fetish/roleplay is done in exclusive only so i get guys asking me what roleplays fetishes i like to do and i tell them im new to camming havent done much and i'm learning as i go they instantly leave . or when i say that i can do a certain roleplay but ive never done it before they leave! its like they expect me to know how to do everything on top of being an expert at it. its such a catch 22 i need to learn but how can i learn if no wants to teach me. Theyre either VERY picky or its a ploy to get fee dirty for their fetish

I've told guys that I haven't yet tried whatever it is, and ask them to tell me about it if I don't know what it is. If they tell me and I'm OK with it, then I tell them I'd be happy to try it with them if they want to go private with me. Some have left right away, but a couple have taken up the offer so far. Some were happy to guide me through it. Gosh, one guy spent 30 minutes guiding me in exclusive last month, and even thanked and tipped me afterwards. I hope he comes back. ;D
