PornPics

Porn Pics! With a name like that, you can tell right off the bat that this site is going to straightforward. No bullshit, no beating around the bush (except, of course, for you beating around your own bush). From the moment the homepage loads, it is exactly what you expect it to be: a shit ton of pictures taken from porn. Easy enough. Extra-large thumbnails are sorted into categories, so you can easily start your journey into whatever type of smut you like best.

I am 100% an ass man, and, sure enough, one of the first categories in the list is “Ass.” In two seconds flat, I have at my disposal a seemingly endless list of days upon days of photo albums full of bitches with beautiful bubble butts either bent over and posing just for me or getting railed doggystyle and loving it. We’ve sure as hell come a long way from the days of eagerly waiting for a single image to load, pixel by pixel. I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again, this is truly a wonderful time to be alive.

Maybe “Ass” is too general for you, and you need something a little more specific. If so, there’s a handy search bar in the top left-hand corner of every page. Go ahead and let Porn Pics know just what kind of ass you’re looking for—maybe you want a tight ass, a big ass, a Latina ass, a big Latina ass; or maybe you want to jump ship altogether and cleanse your pallet with some giant titties with tan lines—whatever you want to find, you can do so almost instantaneously. Then filter your results to load either by popular or most recent.

Another convenient feature of Pornpics is its slideshow mode. Once you click on an album, you’ll have the option to view all of the photos in a high-resolution, full-screen slideshow. Use the arrow keys to click through and stop to enjoy your favorite images at your leisure. I really like how Pornpics has embraced the photo album model. A lot of pic sites these days seem to offer a ton of one-off photos, leaving you helpless to find more of a particular scene or chick.

Quality Pics, Quality Chicks

The images on Pornpics are top-notch as well. These are not amateur, shitty photos that look like they were taken from someone’s Photobucket account 10 years ago or something. Every pic on here is of the highest quality, and every chick on here is sexy as hell. This is the only site I’ve ever been on where I’ve felt completely confident in clicking the “Random” button. I must have clicked it 100 times; not once did it disappoint.

If you don’t want to take the time to scroll through the homepage’s hundreds of thumbnails to find the category you’re looking for, just hover your mouse over the “Categories” tab to find a drop-down menu of every category they offer, all listed in alphabetical order. Immediately to the right, you’ll find a “Pornstars” tab; click it to be taken to another page that looks identical to the homepage, but contains thumbnails organized by actress instead of category.

It’s rare that you come across a porn site that actually has a useful navigation menu, but Pornpics has nailed it. To the right of the “Pornstars” tab, you can also click “Cams” or “HD Porn,” in case you are craving something a little more active than a still image—these buttons will take you to other reputable, quality sites. Pornpics even has a tab labeled “Deals,” where they offer you discounted memberships to some of the best paid porn sites on the web. This is much more than just an enormous high-quality database of images, it is a gateway to the highest quality of porn you can find online.

Picture Perfect? Not Quite…

Of course, no website is perfect. There are a few features that I would love to see Pornpics incorporate in the future. Pics don’t really do a whole lot for me, personally, so I expect an image-based porn site to do a lot more than just provide pics and links to other sites. I think Pornpics could take a page or two from one of my favorite pic sites, smutty.com.

While I wouldn’t necessarily want Pornpics to allow user-uploaded content the way Smutty does (since one of the best aspects of Pornpics is its extremely high-quality images), I would like to see Pornpics utilize some of the more interactive features of Smutty—hashtags, comments, user profiles, etc.

As far as ads are concerned, I appreciate that Pornpics keeps them sparse. Obviously, I would prefer zero ads, but if your site absolutely has to have them, it is much better to have a minimal amount, and in a non-invasive fashion. You won’t find pop-up ads for boner pills on Pornpics (thankfully, those ads are, ironically, instant fucking boner killers for me).

That being said, it is a little annoying how the relatively few ads they do display are sometimes thrown into the mix as if they are just another one of the thumbnails. For a site whose core strength is high quality, artistic quality photography, and models, these ads become especially distracting.

The only other ads you’ll find on the site, though, come in the form of thoughtfully placed banners at the bottom of each photo gallery, just above the related albums that Porn Pics suggests. These ads I actually don’t mind as much, since they are usually promoting the site that produced the content you are viewing. This is about as close to tasteful an ad can ever get. Well played, Pornpics, well played.

As far as quality is concerned, you’d be hard-pressed to find another site that is so consistently impressive. You’d also be hard-pressed to find another site that could rival Pornpics in terms of site layout, organization, design, and ease of navigation. If I had to attach a single word to Pornpics, I think it would be “classic.” It is a classic site that features exclusively quality women in what is undoubtedly pornography’s most classic medium—photography.

Although I’m not big on fapping to photos, I will most certainly revisit Pornpics from time to time; even if it’s only to find the world’s hottest models, and then track down the videos of them getting their brains fucked out.
