Re: Lj.com is connected to livejasmin but more fun :)
Does anyone works this site anymore? I swear since they introduced the Awards there are like literally no members around in my room, forget members there are no guests either. Does 3 or 5 guests sound right for you? when i have my ass in camera that members on sm die for?!
i can't make 10 bucks in 10 hours there lately, and i mean lately like a week ago. Also they denied my pictures too from a professional camera. Wierd. i have a feeling this site is run by studios maffia. They hate US and independent models.

Re: Lj.com is connected to livejasmin but more fun :)
Does anyone here have suggestions on how to make a profile picture taken with a webcam? Earlier this I called myself making a profile picture with the correct size but somehow it still got turned down.
Also I was wondering does anybody work on there without a profile pic?
TIA

Re: Lj.com is connected to livejasmin but more fun :)
You are not allowed to work without profile picture. Admin is going to tell you if you don't have any profile picture they are gonna position you somewhere in the middle of nowhere of online girls.
If you are talking about Lj, any webcam picture is good there as a profile ( at least used to work for me), but on livejasmin only professional picture or you will get harassed and bullied by admins.

I don't believe they accept webcam pictures for profile pictures at all anymore. It has to be a professional quality photo and they have a lot of strict requirements about what they will approve.
I had a webcam picture as my profile picture for a long time and they recently made me change it, so yah I don't think you can do webcam pics on any of their sites now.

Re: Lj.com is connected to livejasmin but more fun :)
I actually work for both every night... basically after you work for livejasmin they invite you over to lj.com ... from my experience.... in the last 6 months being there ...only a handful of pvts from lj.com only a few dollars each... bunch of free guys... all my money comes from livejasmin its just good for if you work for livejasmin and there extremely strict if you advertise yourself as something else for a different website so beware!! i was banned for 24 hours for telling a guy my Skype, and i don't even do Skype shows i just use it to get guys onto livejasmin when im online there. this happened 2 times for me. so great add on if you work for livejasmin... but the money definitively doesnt come from there. most of the time i never have an lj member there or i will have just 1 member there viewing free.all the guys like your pics and comment but no action

Re: Lj.com is connected to livejasmin but more fun :)
They dont, actually they became even stricter than before and i have only been there 6 months! i use a regular camera and have to work very hard to get my picture accepted... finally i got a good picture accepted that my hubby took of me and last night kid me not they took it down with out warning and it killed my room now that i have no profile pic. i was sooo mad!!! and they told me from now on only studio/professional photography since they are going to a more glamorized look of livejasmin... i told them in not with a studio like 99% of livejasmin is because there all from other countries and im the few us girls there... idk what im gonna do...i go back on in two days i dont think i can get a professional one in time

Sorry for double post ... Any livejasmin questions fell free to ask/PM me :)

Re: Lj.com is connected to livejasmin but more fun :)
I use to fight with livejasmin admins all the time. I understand where they wanna go with all those rules but the actual problem is: all the admins see things diffrently. One has put my glamour profile pic & found it good; another tought it would be a cool idea to reject the pic without a warning (and said it was not glamour). Livejasmin is a good cam site but it gets sooo annoying with its absurd rules. They did found a picture from my galery & have put it as profile eventually (by themselfs). I guess they realised I had a point (and bothered to listen to me because i make them money). I am east european & independent model there (so sorry for my english hehe). My first post here, wohoo!
p.s: thank you for all the amazing help on the forum girls !

Re: Lj.com is connected to livejasmin but more fun :)
LaylaLovely, they should give you like 14 days for the professional photoshoot. They did it with me after I ask them, why I wasn't given 14 days notice time like other girls, because looking for a photographer and then waiting for a pictures is time consuming.

Re: Lj.com is connected to livejasmin but more fun :)
I just finished speaking with admin and they are really sticking with the whole "New Livejasmin " direction they are going for and wont budge on letting me keep my profile picture until get professional ones.i begged them to keep it until i get better ones... now my days off will be spent trying to find websites or apps that make you pictures sharper not blurry or pixilated.. (that was the problem)
-
Re: Lj.com is connected to livejasmin but more fun :)
Layla, do you have a digital camera? Look into livejasmin wiki, at some examples of what they call "good pics". Make a few pictures & add some retouches in a simple programme like picassa (here is free to download from their official picassa site). I had the same fuzzy profile pic problem at one point, they told me they want a digital camera pic not a webcam one (evan tough it was hd made with my c920). I did as they told me & was solved. With livejasmin you always seem to do something wrong, that's why here studios are so popular (they solve those problems for you).

Re: Lj.com is connected to livejasmin but more fun :)
OMG their photo requirements.... They will be deducting 5% now if we don't have a "Glamour" profile photo set. Which, I have not had because the requirements for it are more strict than any of their other ones. What's the point in us having 3 profile pictures? I guess I'll be using an old ass photo! I like what I'm making on LJ, but their photo requirements are just way, way too strict.
They also just deducted me 5% for using my c910. They told me it is no longer "compatible" with their website. So what I did was hook up my c920, got the 5% back, and switched back to the c910! So silly to have to jump through hoops just to keep my percentage.

Re: Lj.com is connected to livejasmin but more fun :)
Really sarah??? wow i was just on and i havent heard any of that, i think they do things in sweeps because i dont have a glamour photo or profile just an explicit photo they surprisingly took ... and i used to have profile until they got all crazy on there new glamorized lj thing....ugghh...i am working on getting proffesional photos just for those 3 profile photos.If you dont mind me asking what is ur usual percentage on ther since they deduct so much from you for pics and camera u use? i usually start at 30 and by the next week im at 40-45% .. i couldnt imagine getting less than 30%

They just put it on the news feed today, about the 5% deduction for photos.
They TRY to deduct it from me, but I always find a way to fix whatever they want. Like when they said I couldn't use my c910, I just logged off and plugged in the c920 long enough for live support to check my stream and give the percentage back. Then I went back to the c910 because I don't prefer the coloring of the c920. And for profile pics, I just use old ones from my professional modeling days. I was 8 or 9 years younger back then... so I look a little different but it gets me by without deducting my percentage.
So I always stay at the highest I can be, I never stream with the 5% deduction until I get it fixed.

Re: Lj.com is connected to livejasmin but more fun :)
Seriously, they are kinda annoying. I understand the girls when they say they hate it. I was on the point of giving up on it, from pissing me off, 4 times already. I am on fetish and they suspended me because of my slaves (humiliation, them giving me links and me not sayin clearly NO) 2 times. But they took it back everytime (because i was right!!!). I only stay there because i make good money on it & it is my only site. They kinda want to make it a super mega high quality site for members. They choose my glamour photo (i hate it).
As an advice for any models working on livejasmin: if you have a problem you can't solve with the support chat, write a detailed email to [email protected] . They are kinda above the supportchat somehow.

Re: Lj.com is connected to livejasmin but more fun :)
o okay, i will be spending all day today taking pics myself and uploading as many as possible for approval. Fingers Crossed!! they already took one yay!

Re: Lj.com is connected to livejasmin but more fun :)
I left liveasmin just when they introduced the glamor photo nonsense. I set up a photo shoot for it but at the end of the day, I found other sites that were more profitable and less of a pain in my ass. I was ALWAYS jumping through hoops, like you SarahTime, to make sure I didn't have deductions. And like someone mentioned earlier, it was such a pain in the ass because every admin has different ideas regarding what constitutes a decent photograph. I once had an admin kick my video and audio ratings up to "good" only to have another admin tell me that my lighting wasn't appropriate and take it away.
I was sent a message stating that I was approved for LJ shortly after starting with livejasmin. It didn't bring me any more money than when I was strictly working LiveJasmin.

I know what you mean. They docked me for my webcam once before, and the admin I got that time said the c910 was fine and gave my percentage back. This time the admin would not budge so I had to trick the system. It worked, for now. Until they dock me again. I would just use my c920 for LJ only but for some reason my computer freezes when I have the c910 and the c920 both plugged in.

Re: Lj.com is connected to livejasmin but more fun :)
Since they started to be extra strict about webcam and pictures quality they lost half of their models. I used to earn good $$ on LJ before, but everything went wrong when they made these innovations :( I was super stressed because I lost my main income and I had to start everything over on other sites. I think alot of models had the same thing. They had online 1500+ models every night now they have 700-800 maximum. Less models will result in less members sooner or later. I don't think it's a good idea to focus so much on quality... it makes the whole atmosphere of the site so cold and strict. I don't like the idea that I can't turn on my webcam anywhere in my apartment, because I have to take advantage of my background and lightening being studio-lookalike. I love about MFC that they give the models so much freedom, and the atmosphere is so friendly there and I can set on my cam even in my car if I want (and members loves that too thats because MFC is so popular I think). In my opinion, they should focus more on tipping options, something like goldshows on Streamate, because requesting models having professional pictures and stuff like that only are going to make the site lose all good models and members.

Re: Lj.com is connected to livejasmin but more fun :)
I like LJ the way it is. They have requirements and they actually follow thru on them. Less models don't mean less members, it means they keep performers that follow the rules and entertain the clients. So many cam sites have too many models on and it floods the site. How should they not focus on quality? Quality is what keeps members coming back again and again. I went on there the other day and had a good time. They didn't beg me or act rude like they do on so many sites. They have admins that watch free chat for rule violators and are there if you need them asap.
They did start a second site that is tipping only. The problem is performers want freedom and that so called freedom is killing these cam sites. How is tits and pussy in free chat ever a good idea? No one needs to pay if they can watch you for free and free just attracts deadbeats. I am annoyed performers think every site should offer Gold shows or shows in free chat. Tokens sites offer that, go on there and stop trying to ruin every damn site. We don't all want to do that and a lot of customers don't like it either. LJ is the top ranked cam site and has been for years. Their traffic alone is more than most cam sites combined so they must be doing something that works.
I also don't see the big deal in wanting professional pictures. It's a cam site, your supposed to sell yourself and good images should be required. It's not hard to find a photographer to shoot TFP's or even to pay them for a shoot. It annoys me when people don't want to put the effort in and expect the site to lower their standards.

Thank you , yes i usually use my digital camera they insisted on me getting professional ones which i am soon. i usually set up all my lights and take the best pictures then edit a bunch and try and submit one by one until one gets accepted... they accepted all three of mine yay!!!! You are on the fetish side?? i wanted to go there to start with but noticed more traffic through the main girls categories there still a bunch of fetish guys there as well but i really have to mainstream myself as pertaining to that to get more
-
Re: Lj.com is connected to livejasmin but more fun :)
Yes it is true. It seems to be more traffic on the girls section. The advantage of beeing on the fetish section is the number of girls (for example there are 600 girls online now and only 50 fetish girls). So the members will find you evan tough you are at the end of the page. Fetish works out great for me right now.
It is also true that you can get fetish guys evan on the girls section (like you can get normal guys in the fetish section). Try to make some pictures with you dressed in latex/pvc or with a ballgag on. this type of pictures that suggest fetish too. They will come at you !;D
I did my profiles pics by myself too (and they got them approved). What doesn't make me a professional ? :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
-
Re: Lj.com is connected to livejasmin but more fun :)
YAY!! hahaha!!! weve all been approved!! yes all my profile pics have a mask so that draws them in.. but when i get professional ones done i will be in a dungeon sex room fetish like room .. so excited!! i want to make it mainstream but with a tasteful edge of i'm also fetish for those guys.
