A lot of people have left us in this industry

Only one that I know of went to jail though...lol

That was Janette, sad time when that happened. Supernice person with kids. Not that anyone really DESERVES to die in a car crash, but she'd have been extremely low on the list.

Voo, you should remember her from the NatNet suite, she was on the couch, we were sitting on the floor, one of those big group chats. I think that was when that overtanned drunk local Vegas chick was in there and kept trying to use the room phone.

Whoops, looks like Peaches beat me to the punch on Janette. I think Peaches was part of the group in the NatNet suite that night, if I remember correctly.

Since we're sharing memories, how about the illustrious XPICS? I remember setting up little Adultcheck sites with USENET pics and "click on this banner and enter the 4th word from the 3rd paragraph below to advance to the next content page" and thinking I was a genius. Made grrrrrrrrrreat money until they cut me off.

Then it was off to pull the same game on Cyberthrill (while they still paid), but I went legit soon after.

There we go, all my dirty laundry in one post!

In late 1995 (maybe early '96), XPICS started one of the first shared pay-out programs. They started with $1000. the first month, and split it up based on percentage of traffic you sent. The next month, they raised that to $5000.00. Carol's site was free at that time, and these guys were sending her checks for a couple of grand every month. Not bad for the little play site it was at the time.
