If this is what you truly believe then I suspect you may need to branch out and make new friends. The movement was and is still the same:forcing people to acknowledge their misconceptions in regards to the black race. How many times do people have to say this? In regards to exclusion, it has nothing to do with you. It's not about you or up to you to decide if it's relevant. What you consider exclusion some people call it empowerment. I don't know what you've witnessed but I'm willing to bet it's not the real deal or the entire story. Sometimes you just have to be quiet and take witness. I do it all the time

Not here you didn't. Rispy_Girl doesn't have to 'branch out and make new friends' simply for having an opinion that you disagree with.

OMG the new site is awful!!!!! Already complained on Twitter to them. Once again ALL the focus is on featured stores and top girls, and the rest of us get hidden away...

I've noticed that this is a trend that a lot of sites had started adopting. This was my biggest concern when ManyVids made the shift to focusing solely on what is selling the most. They were removing all of your chances as a "little guy" of getting any traffic from anyone else. There are a lot of changes I do like and I know why they would change certain things, but I think in the long run it's better to advertise for ALL Models rather than the top few. What happens when people get sick of the top models or the models aren't cranking out videos fast enough? The customer won't spend more money. If you advertise across the board then there's a better chance that the customer will find more content from other models to buy.

A lot of the top stores do not put out as much content as the smaller ones. More content could mean more money spent!

Very disapointed too... everything I wanted to say was already said by the 2 ladies above... I can't say I'm surprised, I was expecting this. But I was hoping they would not fall into that trap of only promoting the top models.

I had paragraphs in my descriptions and now everything is stuck together and difficult to read. I also had some html at the end of my text with links... it doesn't work anymore. I don't have time re-edit all my descriptions again, I hope they will fix this.

They said they would not be allowing HTML anymore due to issues with security and people linking to other sites. I think more than anything you should blame models that link to their other sites on IWC (and other sites in general).

I do suggest you guys send them an email with any concerns you might have and any issues/feedback. They won't know unless you tell them!

I'm not impressed either. I was really hoping to get a bit of side money from this site, but with the way they are currently set up, nobody will ever find a newbie gradually adding material that doesn't immediately sell a billion copies.

I was pissed as fuck when MV made the change, really disappointed to see IWC go the same way. I do wonder, though, why they don't look at Clips4Sale, which seems to be a mega fucking heavy hitter in the biz, and think that maybe highlighting new AS WELL AS most popular is a good idea. Strange to me. I mean why re-invent the wheel? Their sites are more attractive and that would give them an edge anyway, but I guess they all think they are smarter. Fucking hell. It's the MFC effect, it all slides into the same mold eventually ugh.

Please let IWC know what you like and don't like! They were very responsive to my email when I told them what I think:

The new site looks like a less worked-out manyvids remake. First thing I noticed is "#1 in customer service" (...), saying they have the highest paid commissions (which is not true, neither in % (https://www.amateurporn.com/) and certainly not in amounts (c4s)) and the color change to twitter, facebook, linkedin etc. - let's say "internet success blue". I don't like the slider and I don't like it zooming the pictures to low quality. I don't see any of the suggestions from here implemented.

If I were a first time visitor, I think I wouldn't know what the site was about. I guess the best thing for new stores to do is start your name with a 1. I don't see any other option to get exposure on the site if you are new or less established. This is more than surprising.. I think the old site might have been better. At least the colors matched.

Now it's really more like a private playground for goddesses than a well-rounded clip selling site. It's kinda sad to see this change.

I am so close to just closing my store there. I have sent support emails, and I am still in processing. This means I have been 5 days without any traffic or clip releases. It seems today they changed a few featured stores to other girls I have not ever seen. I guess a few top girls actually complained as well. They do not like the MFC feel its starting to have. I believe if they would have stayed the way they where. IWC could have been the best. However they lie about " number 1 clip site " " number 1 is customer and store care " " highest payout " yeah... no.

I had videos processing for a long time and put in a support ticket to have them deleted just before the new site went live and my support ticket was never responded to.

I did get it resolved by tweeting at them and they deleted the videos for me. It's not a good fix for it, but you can try that too..

While IWC is most certainly allowed to start any company they want, PGD has every right to ask the purpose. The only nastiness I see here is in your post.
Uh, the point is that she went out of her way to passive-aggressively attack Sinna and myself specifically for having issues with IWC's ethics. I understand that you think that you know almost everything because you're a moderator, but you probably didn't read the thread comprehensively enough to understand what's going on. I get it, though. It was a covert little attack that Phat Girl made, so you failed to notice.

Definitely! That's what sells the best there just try to get the minimum clips up for your store to be active then roll them out slowly to get the most views and you're good! I suggest that you use their preview generator as well. It's super easy to use!

I am super disappointed with their customer service since the new site has gone up. I had issues with custom videos (before they put up a notice) and tried to get their attention - never heard back from them. I tried letting them know of another issue with video clips and they didn't bother responding. I've tried support tickets and tweeting and no one will respond to me!

I am having my best month I think I have ever had there this month and that's fantastic, BUT they aren't bothering to respond to me.

I am seeing video purchase emails that will say "guest", but in the daily totals they have the customer's username. I keep track of ALL of my sales manually so this makes it harder to figure out what is happening. I also let them know of a pirated video of mine and others that I found and they never bothered to respond to me. What's the point of that incredibly annoying pre-roll if they won't even respond to me when I tell them about my pirated videos!? There's other glitches here and there, but honestly I am not going to bother telling them if they aren't going to help me.

06-24-2016, 03:55 PM
I find that the best way to get help is use the live chat feature (when someone is on there). I think what's happening with Guests is the customers aren't signing up until later, after the sales email went through. I've never bought there before but maybe there's a message after purchase that encourages the guys to sign up to have access to video streaming. I also manually enter my sales in a spreadsheet, so the following day I just quickly review all the names on the daily recap then delete it.

Is anyone else still having issue with IWC's preview generator? I can pick my scenes but it doesn't save. Nothing happens after I press the "save preview" button. They sent out an email two days ago saying it was fixed but still not working for me.
I was wondering if there is another gif maker out there which makes the gifs as the IWC preview generator did. I've googled but not really getting anything. I'm also not tech savvy so not sure what the correct lingo is to describe what type of gif that is. Not just still frames but a few second moving image frames.


Thanks for your help.

I just cut my preview gifs together in Windows Movie Maker and make them into small videos. Then I use Instagiffer (http://instagiffer.com/) to make the video into a gif.

Thank you for the advice. I have GIF Brewery but it seems to only make a GIF from one scene in my video as opposed to IWANTCLIPS's preview generator where it makes a GIF from a few different scenes. I like this better because it gives the potential customer more images of what they will see in my video. Maybe I'm not using GIF Brewery to its optimal potential.
Is there anything else besides Window's Movie Maker?

I don't have any problems with their gif generator, have you emailed them about your problem? It's WAY easier just to use their generator than to use one you download.

I use Gif Brewery too. I edit short movie segments together in iMovie that I want to use for my gif. Export and then save though Gif Brewery.

75% of my pirated videos are first being bought on IWC. This is so incredibly frustrating. I've tried telling them who is doing it (I keep a VERY comprehensive list of who buys my videos!) and never get a response. If I didn't make as much money there as I do I would delete my account.

I don't know why I bother to email them, half of the time I email them I don't ever hear anything back and when I do it never settles my issue and seems kind of snarky.

It also frustrates me that they removed the pre-roll. It was a horrible idea in the first place and no one liked it, including customers. Then they decided to remove it? What was the point?! They started it in November and now they removed it. It's just annoying.

It's also been pretty slow for me this pay period too. That really sucks :(

Um well I can tell you as someone who actually buys a lot of clips I will never use this site anymore. For starters It does not function and secondly my money ends up trapped on the site. I am having to go through a lot of trouble with my bank to deal with this site. To top it off, the customer service there in their first email was laced with legal threats. Honestly disgusted that I ever did business with them at all. There are a lot of other much more reputable sites out there to use and anyone selling on iwantclips right now for me is a on the never buy from list for me.

I have no idea how they treat content providers but I can tell you as a customer this site is blacklisted for me. There has to be a better middleman or medium out there than this.

Sorry to heat that and well I dont know how many people actually run that site but I got the feeling like the customer service and the owners are the same people. As far as more detail. I try to buy something from one individual on that site. It will not go through. I realize I have to use the internal site payment system, so I go ahead and put in credit card details to the amount I needed to purchase a video. And then the site does function, I sit there for 15 minutes trying to get a purchase to go through. And to be honest the video I needed was a custom one and somewhat time sensitive to be relevant to what I wanted it for. So I was like screw it then, and I see where my money (quite a bit, think hundreds) is stuck on that site.

So basically they are just siphoning money from customers bank accounts to sit on that site, and then refuse refunds. Now I am not sure what the benefit is for people to put there material on that site, but I can garantee you I will never use that site again. And like I said I am going to avoid anyone who puts there stuff on that site, its just a recipe for scams. They will give you your money back with a 20% cut off the top, but keep in mind its not clear that you are not purchasing the item you agreed to, as it ends up on that site.

In any case, feel pretty scammed, violated and disgusted. Like I said there has to be better options out there, I flat out refuse to do business with anyone associated with this site. I have to now file reports with the BBB, Bank, and other agencies to try and get back the few hundred they have sitting on that site. Not a fun time, there simply is no respect or trust, and the customer service was absurd. As in threatening with legal action, I think this is not their first rodeo of this sort, maybe if they ran an honest business model that actually provided value to their customers it'd help.

Anyways. that is my two cents, pretty awful experience, enough so that I found out where these guys hang out to try and warn people as I can. Just looks like there really arent any sites for customers. I like doing buisness with the models/content providers, but I am only going to do direct payment from now on, these intermediaries are simply taking advantage of people hoping youll give up.

This all screams that you've managed to do something wrong to me. Avoiding all models that use that site? Good luck, a lot of models are on iwantclips. I've never once in my career scammed anyone and iwc is my main site now.

There's no reason why you can't go through your bank and get those funds reversed one way or another. Filing with the BBB eh likely not accomplish anything at all. This happened with clipvia and they did whatever they wanted and now they are gone and have taken off with thousands of dollars that they never paid out.

Well lets see how it goes with the bank, I do wish I could post some of the customer service emails. But as far as that site goes, not using it, and I really will avoid any models who use it. Maybe exceptions to certain ones I already know, but at no time will I use that site. When a site does this sort of krap everyone there looks associated with it and that is regardless of how you rationalize it to yourself, just a lot of bad emotions. It just makes the whole idea of buying videos too risky, especially when its already one area of the market that requires a high degree of trust to begin with.

I've been on IWC since the first month it opened. It's one of my main sites, I've never heard a single customer complaint. The story doesn't really make sense. Not accusing you of lying, just saying the explanation isn't complete. I do know there's a way to add funds & then pay from there, as I've had a customer do that, but there's also a way to purchase as a Guest. I clear up to $3k/month there just on custom payments & have never had a single complaint. If you had a bad experience then I'm really sorry, and I'm sure that's very upsetting. But to say you won't purchase from models who list their content on that site is just silly. If you said that to me, I'd tell you that I resent the implication & I'd prefer you don't buy from me with that attitude. We're not shady just because one customer had a bad experience with a site we choose to use. However, if you want to fully explain what happened in a way that we can understand the whole story, then I'm sure there are many of us who would read it & consider it. If a site I'm on was really "scamming" my customers, I would absolutely want to know.

You should know that unless a model has her own site with her own payment processing (really rare, and she still pays a cut for the processing), there's no way to pay directly unless you go through a site that expressly doesn't accept adult payments, such as Paypal, Google Wallet or Square. Even Circle Pay only allows payments to individuals & not LLCs/ corps like mine (and lots of other models), which means you're very limited in who you can pay. Also, anyone who sells you clips or customs directly is risking issues such as selling to a minor or getting chargebacks, getting their accounts banned, etc. YOU also risk getting your account banned, and in the case of Paypal at least, that's a permanent thing & can possibly affect everyone else at your address. You know who *I* would steer clear of? Models using Paypal, Google Wallet or any other "direct" payment method while violating the site's TOS. Just my two cents.
