For those of you who use HotSpot Shield during Skype shows.....

if a guy from, say, CamModelDirectory messages you wanting to buy a show, are you supposed to have HotSpot on before you respond to the guy? Or are you supposed to enable it right before the video call begins?

I won $50.00 in a contest. I need all the things, but what do I need first, a better camera, lingerie, toys, or more makeup?

Welcome! Read the stickies at the top of the threads and if you have a question make sure you search for it and try to find the answer before asking on another thread or starting a new one. So many questions will already be answered for you in the thousands upon thousands of threads. There are mannny of them about cams and lingerie, toys and makeup. Have fun, good luck.

I was more asking for advice on /which/ of them to buy. Not specific items, but which category. I'm kind of indecisive. I hope that makes sense.
(So, I'm not asking for advice on a type of cam or lingerie or anything. Just which you'd pick if you were me.)

So, I've been lurking on SW for about two weeks now, made my account a couple days ago and have been debating things for about a month. :] I got my camera recently, and I'm awaiting approval from SM to get started. I set up my Twitter, have a list of games, a schedule I'm ready to follow.. I feel ready. My question, however, is:

I wanted to work on maybe two sites at once, so that if one is slow I can bounce to another to prevent too much discouragement. Working on SM, what other site do you think might be good to apply for as well, as a newbie? I'm sorry if this question is crossing a line, or if I missed a similar one in the search I did, but I've been creeping for a while and couldn't find an answer.. ^^'

Webcam: I currently use the Logitech HD C910, but that cam has been discontinued. You can buy the Logitech 920. I read on here the other day that they came out with a Logitech 930 now?

Lingerie: In the past I've spent so much money on sexy outfits/costumes, and the funny thing is I hardly use any of them. Nowadays I get on cam wearing a bra and panties...or some cute tank top/shorts combo or something. I used to buy sexy costumes from 3wishes.com though.

Toys: Toys made out of real silicone, or toys made out of glass. There are so many dildos out there made of rubber...that sucks. Check out HaydenBlue's awesome thread called 'Sex Toys and Toy Safety': https://www.stripperweb.com/forum/showthread.php?166101-Sex-Toys-and-Toy-Safety&highlight=toy+safety Toys I currently use are the Doc Johnson Bent Graduate Glass Pleasure Wand (it hits your G-spot) and the Doc Johnson Pocket Rocket Plus vibrator.

Makeup: I don't usually wear makeup, other than Carmex chapstick on my lips. Occasionally, I might put on some black Maybelline mascara.

Streamate and AdultWork

I would say Streamate and ImLive, but new ImLive models are required to spend a certain amount of time in free video chat when they start out (I hated doing free video chat on there).

A lot of models like Chaturbate.

I haven't heard great things about the C920. :/ :/ What will I do when my precious C910 dies?

Yeah, it was the ladies on here who told me a while ago that the C910 has been discontinued. That's the cam that I currently use. I really can't see myself "downgrading," so when the time comes for me to give up my C910, I will have to deal with either the C920 or this newer C930 I keep hearing about. Logitech is the only webcam brand I plan to use. :)

I would definitely say a better camera. Not sure which one you are using now but if it's a built in cam on your laptop definitely upgrade to an external HD cam!

Yeah, so I've asked & been answered before, but..I am still new (on & off a lot due to vanilla jobs) I absolutely can not afford even a new cam..customer was going to take me priv. but said my audio/video was 'out of sync'..:(
I mean should I even bother? I make so little as it is, I'm not complaining, something's better than nothing, & still trying to get dancing gig/vanilla job.
I guess there's no answer really thanks anyway

If you are on SM, you can always see how you video looks and sounds through your cammodels link! I do that numerous times through my shift. You have to inspect and be your own advocate!

You can take this with a grain of salt but it's so worth it to upgrade! I used to cam with horrible upload speed (0.20mpbs) and shitty camera. Once I upgraded, my income also did!

i asked this in the SM thread and i never got an answer so i thought i would try and ask in here

i dunno if im doing something wrong or if its just them but i'm having a hard time making any money since thursday/friday. as soon as i see a name log in i say hi hru or something like that. they will either say hi back or just not say anything and neither will i then they leave or we have a little convo then he stops i stop then he leaves. so basically i have them lead the convo and if they dont give me anything more to work with to keep the conversation going i just stop talking and smile at them until they take me pvt or say something new (but that never happens they just leave after a while)i know its been said numerous times the more we talk the less they pay so is it them or am i not engaging enuf/ not putting effort in to the sale then i should be?

Hahaha, thanks. After I read this I saw it on Amazon for like $150, but someone (a fellow camgirl) told me the c930e is the same thing except a little more upgraded. :) *breathes a sigh of relief*

its not just for young girls they have an age cap of 45 but the women who look middle aged are all in the back from what ive seen the oldest top model ive seen shes won Ms MFC her icon has a crown on it and even if there wasnt the no outing thing i couldn't give u her name because i totally forgot it lol- her profile says shes 41 so i dunno if they would really make her go after she hits 45 if shes still on mfc in 4 years. or what happens to older models once they hit 45.

No. Models in their late 30s and 40s have done well on there. The site is definitely not for everyone though.

I just thought to myself...wouldn't that be some craziness if the guy tried to turn around and tell Amazon "NO, I didn't authorize $1,300 in Amazon purchases...someone else has been using my account!" :P Honestly, if he's got so much money for you to spend, he shouldn't have any problem just sending you an Amazon e-gift card to your e-mail. Just suggest that he do that instead.

would you:

a) wait for all your photos to be approved (your bio pic is up) to stream on sm
or
b) give it a whirl without them all being approved

confession... I realllllly wanna do it. lol. But I won't, I'll try to get him to do it for me.

I would have a hard time turning that down too! It's good that you kept the convo, you have proof that he gave you permission :)

06-13-2013, 04:55 PM
Yah, I told him that, and was like, "Why can't you just go buy everything off my wishlist" and he's like, "technically, I can. But it would really get me off to watch you spend all my money".

Financial dom/sub? Idk what to do...
I saved the convo, where he gave me his logon info and gave me permission to do all this, just in case- I haven't done anything yet though. He said he wants me to add more expensive things to my wishlist before we do the show.

This may sound a bit paranoid on my part but i would be worried that maybe its not even his acct, or maybe not his credit card. Theres just so many ways that this could go wrong. Plus even if this is legit, if his fantasy is to just "watch" you spend his money, then it is totally feasible that after you are done he could just turn around and cancel all those orders.

I really just keep pushing them back into the bra... I'm interested to find out if there IS a permanent solution...
Sew them closed? no idea...

o the ones ive had for everyday were sewed in but the one that came out an hour ago did look like it wasn't but i thought it was im live so i just pulled it out of the bra for now.i guess i gotta struggle with it and just pop it back in lol thank tho bb :P

This might not work with every bra, but one of my bras were doing that and I was just able to pull the underwires out, and it is more comfy now and works just fine.

I used to have this happen to me ALL the time, You can stitch the wire back in with sewing thread but that will only last for awhile. I found once I started washing my bras inside of a lingerie bag and hanging them to dry it stopped happening. If you don't have one of those just put them inside a pillow case and tie a knot in the top.

what about a bit of crazy glue? same idea as sewing it, but may be a bit stronger, and a quicker fix?

I just started camming again back in April. Haven't cammed since 2011, when I paid taxes I did it all together as an annual in january 2012 and filed as a hobby rather than self-employment. When do I need to pay taxes again (in the United States), and can I get away with claiming it as a hobby again since it wont be all that much?

My gut feelings is that you will be able to keep it.. but I am not 100% sure, as I have no experience.
Did your jaw hit the floor? LOL. Too bad it's only like $40-ish your cut :( Still great though.

That's definitely a question to ask an accountant, but I will give you some basic tips based on what I know. If you are turning a profit it's best to file as self-employed.
You should have filed again this past January (2013) if you made any money at all.
Disregarding your gap year, I advise filing as self employed in Jan 2014. Once you file an initial self employment tax return, you can use the numbers there to calculate your quarterly taxes. If you plan on staying self employed for the upcoming years I really wouldn't file as a hobby again.
