* Thank you for the information Niikitap *
Times have changed. The photosets apparently don't hold the value that they once did. A regular set as you say exif stripped and logo added cost's $10.00 U.S. If you would like the set without logo and with exif data. The cost is doubled, that's $20.00. Of course the only sets are the older ones, as Vladmodels isn't active anymore.
The company who bougtht the sets is called Custom Teens/Custom Amateurs. And like you said the sets run about $300.00 and up I bought one and was slightly disappointed with it. so they knocked off $50.00. They also added it to their noncustom sets. I don't think the model wanted to do it and it showed. The old Vladmodels had photographers who knew how to work with the girls.
They had a special over the summer and sold the sets at half price. I took advantage of this and bought as many sets as I could. After Weener pointed out that if I asked they would sell me the sets with out exif they all were. So for the first part of my membership I purchased sets with the new logo. The rest are no logo/exif. But I would not consider them custom as it is nothing but the original photos. Yes better quality and I too feel that is worth mentioning. Thus I devised the xf which is short for exif (no logo) But it is not custom. IMHO a custom set has one of the following qualities.
1) Special request by customer, in which the outfit, theme, pic count, location etc; were defined by the customer.
2) The photo set is No-Logo/exif and has either extra pics or different pics sometimes even less than the regular set. This would have been originally bought by request.
3) A set created by the staff which was not offered to the general public. These sets were offered to "VIP" status customers only. These sets are usually a little more "fleshy" or risque.
On the other hand most of the sets I bought, which I consider xf, have no logo with exif data and are of high quality. Other than that they are exactly like the original.
One special note to any one considering buying sets. The new owners of Vladmodels don't want to go to jail. Some pics have been removed from the sets on certain models. Oddly enough some sets retained them. Compare y114 Vika to y111 Katya.
In regards to Yank what I could do is put the original folder as found inside a folder that is more friendly to a large post.
Best Regards,
Lucky Lu
