We are a congregation of men who have the same love for feet we are more like a brotherhood but when one has discovered some thing beautiful he will not share without a credit card

I hear ya bro! But at the same time..in this day and age to run a site it cost $$$ so to "give away" footie porn for free when you can charge for it is not an economical venture.

well yes theoretically "members" could make a donation..how much would you be willing to contribute to a site when you know you could get it free?

It would be nice if we didn't need money to enjoy things that we like. I sure wish I didn't have to pay $25 dollars for the crab cakes I like at my favorite restaurant too.

Prince of Soles, you shuold also take into mind the camera costs that Patrick, as well as others, use to provide those photos. Those cameras can run into the four-figures to provide us with the high-quality images we like....there are a good amount of foot previews from these sites to lure us in! Then for the people who primarily post on clips4sale.com....refer to Patrick's statement above!

Well, there are free pages like geocities etc. Plus, how many people shoot with film anymore? I'll bet most of the foot-fetish-photographers use digital cameras. For instance I have a Nikon D-100, and I use Photoshop.
I bought my camera for work, though. Not for the pupose of taking pictures of feet. Though, I have used it for that.
Anyhow, feet are money makers. Some people only get into making a site because, in most cases, they don't even have to show faces, just feet. So it's anonomous.
A lot of these women are only in it for the money. It's easy money.
There are so many free sites out there. Just search for them.
TRUE lovers of feet would not be into making a site for the sole purpose of making easy money.
I mean look at some of the sites out there. You can tell who is into it becuase they love it by looking at the prices of membership.
THe higher the price, the more likely that the owners are trying to cash in on our fetishes.
But, hey, that's capitalism. Find a weakness or demand and exploit it for financial gain.

So true. Just put a pretty curvy leggy high heeled woman on the front cover and men will at least look at it; Then open to find the babe on the cover and shortly afterwards, buy the mag. Gotcha! We have a sale . Cha-ching! Sad, but true. Marketing did it's job and knows how to placate to a man's soft spot--sex (sells). People LOVE sex and men need it, a lot (in any form). Men are very visual and that is why we come here to WusFeetlinks . It is that plain and simple. Nothing is really free. This is the way of the world. I don't care how you dice it or slice it, it is all (directly/indirectly) about the money.

I'd keep going on and on but because I am getting tired, I just thought I'd show you why it is easier up front to seek a membership than to "hope" someone gives you some kick back for your efforts. I'd think homeless beggars (who aren't homeless) would get more money than we would from trying to run a site like that. It is hard for some people to not give those kind of people money because their right there in front of them. The Internet is not personal and it is easy to forget that there are real people behind what you look at on every site.

No one is forced to join a pay site. I am not a member of any. Way too expensive. But if some one is really into Lexi or Patrick's work, then i think they have a right to charge a fee. Forgetting net expences, what about camera upgrades and location fees (fuel etc) as well as modelling expenses. Costumes even!
I think there is a great balance between free and pay. I also dont see any harm in a total amatuer trying to make some money. Though it's funny to think that a few years ago people thought they would retire from fetish pics.
The beauty of Wu's is that you get samples from pay sites that might make a person join. Also, some models pop up on here and that gives a personal touch to the proceedings. But above all, there are a heap of us who provide free pics of our wives/girlfriends on this wonderful site. Fair enough if the feet are not to some one's taste, but hey, it's free!
Dont forget places like myspace or Flickr. Heaps and heaps of pics there!

I make beats, and everybody wants free beats. You can find sites that have free beat downloads just like I find sites that contain free foot material. Until I have the extra money for a paysite, I'll look for free available material. I'm actually amazed at the amount of free content that is out there!!! Personally, I couldn't get to the end of this free You Tube video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1jzoWioVhNQ
