bring back the option to filter girls by the year they started doing porn

also, the links don't show if they are images or just videos

in the favs babes i can't filter them by the date i added them. I used to do that a lot in the old version

1. I thought it was there, but I think we can bring start date back along with the birthday filter.

2. The links do. This is what you need to look for.

3. This IS something on our to do list. Unfortunately, filtering on date added and alphabetical isn't a easy chore even though it seems like a very simple concept. I wanted to get this added when we first added the followed babes into the site but we decided to wait till after the flip and the dust settles since it's probably going to require some major overhaul. It is coming though.
 
5 star rating system does not work as well as before. The points we gave to the pornstars in the babes list are not shown.
 
WOW, I can't tell you how much I hate this new format. Nothing is easy to find. Looks like my days of Freeones being my go to site to appreciate beautiful women is over. Can't sort, can't see fake from natural. No ability to block tattoos and piercings. Guess the search is on for a user friendly site. Fun while it lasted.
 
Hi.

I think adding thumbnails was of course a good idea. But it's a good idea that turned wrong.

Plenty of them are missing. Some are not relevant. Not all galleries have pictures that would allow you to make nice relevant square thumbnails.

If you still have to read the description to know what the link is about, the thumbnails are pointless.

I had the same issue with the site i'm running. I replaced all of them by headshot pictures of the performers. Like that...

It saves time and it looks better ;)

I would say there are too many things on screen on the homepage. Big ads + big thumbnails + camgirls + menus + search bar + category index + ... Too much, too big, maybe we'll get used to it, but i'm sure plenty of new visitors will find that confusing.

I don't see the point of seperating "links" from "photos" or "videos". "Links" are photos and videos. But i know why you do that... ;)

Correct me if i'm wrong but i think you don't add "submitted links" to the website channels.

The number 1 FreeOnes issue is the fact it's too messy. You have filters, but they are not relevant. They can't be relevant because you've been adding links under 1 category only for so many years.
When the users browse categories from the homepage, or when they use the filter in the performer pages, they only get something like 30% of the results.

And of course, you have several times the same promo galleries.

A good way to solve the problem would be to create unique pages for every porn video. Group all the links related to that video (your affiliate links + the link to the photo gallery/video trailer you are hosting + submitted links) in that page.
And add the unique pages to the related channel (performer, website and categories).

Now you have 628 entries for Piper Perri. 116 videos, 44 photos and 468 links.

If you group the related links together, maybe you will only have 150 entries left but they are all different ones.
 
Like many people my first reaction was: i hate it. But i forced myself to give it time and give feedback rather than just hating.

- Part of the hate i read is not finding the feature they are used to, so maybe an introduction on the site where the features now are. For example i was about to complain on the fact you can't filter a models gallery on category until i read this thread where you can do this.

- Personally i liked the old style of whats new. Once a week i went and looked at the small selection of women there. Now it feels to daunting to look at.

- The "my babes" area seems automaticly sorted by rank. My guess is other ways of sorting will come? The one i liked from the past is the "new gallery" sorting. Also personally i don't care about ranking in the my babe section. That doesn't mean it is bad tho.

- Continuing the my babe selection: Personally i like to view it in the list view (wich i can, it's great you have a choice here) with a long list. This meant previously i had only 2 pages of my list. Now it are 6 pages of 96 babes. i guess this site is also designed with mobile in mind and the amount of models per page is therefore reduced?

- Sorting by attributes: it's really expanded in a good way. Still i like to see a few more options there. For example you can sort by fake boobs. I'd like to see a no fake boobs/natural option there

Overall after a few days i don't hate it, but there are a few improvements neccecary for me to really like it.
 
What's not working on the sort on babes page? i.e. what option are you trying to sort. It should all work.

When you click on the sort by relevance in the top left there are no other options than relevance itself. Unless this is a browser issue (I'm using firefox) I would assume everyone should be able to sort alphabetically and the other usual ways.

Amid the negativity, I like the new site, the old one badly needed updating so its great that someone took the time to do it.

Ah. Alphabetical isn't an option.

The babes index page (https://www.freeones.com/babes) will have the most sorting options. The others have a bit less. I'm currently struggling with the team in trying to find a good balance for the sort by options. It's NOT as easy as it should be.

And thanks for the kind words! What people don't realize is form got tied to function. With this site, we can change quite a lot of the graphical design without needing a developer to help but with the old site we couldn't just turn a CSS guy on it. A developer had to do everything. And the old code, well to date it, half of it was still PERL. We were quite literally running out of time getting the site onto a platform that actually worked with all the modern infrastructure and hosting that's out there.
 
Dont mind the new layout, just wish i got all my email notifications like i did before when a thread is updated. I only get about half of them, when i get on here i see that several threads im subscribed to have been updated.
 
It's been 10 long years, but www.FreeOnes.com has finally fully updated to a brand new look!

We've really been working hard try try to make as site that everyone will enjoy, including some new features that were missing from the old site due to the inability to continue building and updating it!

We know that change is hard, some of you will go to your grave hating the new design. We're really trying to make a great, modern, flexible site that we can continue tweaking and updating for years to come. If there's something missing that would make you happier, please feel free to Suggest a New Feature here! If something is broken, you can report it on the same form.

I'm really looking forward to see what the future brings for FreeOnes!

Party on! 🎉🥳🎉
I realize things change but this is a disaster...maybe it loads faster, I don’t know about as I’ve had a good connection. But you simply cannot navigate it easily nor look up gals with any degree of efficiency...two thumbs down as, at the very least, you did too many changes at once...

- working on the thumbnails. Unfortunately we had very little thumbnails on the old site and the ones we did have were way too small. We're getting there, slowly.

- separating out the external links from the photos/videos was a team decision. Everyone will get used to it and it makes it easier for those who want just 1 type of content to find it.

- no, we're not allowing outside links to be submitted to channels right at this moment. Only to babes as per usual.

- working on weeding out the dupe content.

We had a saying: "If it ain't broke don't fix it.
It wasn't broke.

If you had any clue what was on the inside of that site, you wouldn't be saying that. Some of it was still PERL....

Like many people my first reaction was: i hate it. But i forced myself to give it time and give feedback rather than just hating.

Overall after a few days i don't hate it, but there are a few improvements neccecary for me to really like it.

- we're adding a "help" to the menu next week. I just need to finish getting the help page written.

- I really don't have any suggestions for you on that. Especially since we're going to be adding news, deals, updates, and other things to the what's new in the future. My suggestion is to use the filter to narrow down what you want to look at for right now (and we are talking about separating say, the links by babe name kind of like the old whats new).

- Correct that it's sorted on ranking by default. Very soon (in the next 2-3 weeks) we'll be allowing the browser to remember how you've sorted things, if you changed a page to row view or have a filter open/closed. Then we'll also be adding this to your profile preferences so even if your cookies are somehow deleted (or you prefer incognito) you'll always have your preferred setup.

- We decided to end it at 96 but I'll talk to the team and see if there's a case to extend more.

- The fake boob/no fake boob is coming. You'd have thought that was going to be easy but apparently the code behind yes/no isn't so simple!

You've got rid of the ability to subscribe to pornstars' RSS, haven't you? This is a total disaster for me :(

I'm sorry. We decided to wait on bringing back RSS if at all.

This. What some call progress I'll never understand.

Look up PERL. Yea, that's partly what the old site was based on. Now go and check out how many PERL programmers still exist. I can save you time, very, very little. If we didn't upgrade the site we'd all have woken up to a very dead FreeOnes one morning.
 
WOW, I can't tell you how much I hate this new format. Nothing is easy to find. Looks like my days of Freeones being my go to site to appreciate beautiful women is over. Can't sort, can't see fake from natural. No ability to block tattoos and piercings. Guess the search is on for a user friendly site. Fun while it lasted.
Please let me know if you find a good replacement.

Hello everybody,

Thank you for all your feedback. Most of it we can do something with.
I have read all posts and many other comments coming in thru other channels. We are going to work as hard as we can in the coming weeks to get the most urgent issues solved for you. And keep on doing that until they are all solved and that you don't want another site anymore. That's our goal and I hope you won't leave us in the meantime and if you do that you will come back one day sooner or later.

Regards,
Mr. FreeOnes
 
I don't want to be negative, and really prefer to give kudos, but I'm amazed by how many things are wrong with the new website that have jumped out at me in just a few minutes of trying to use it.

1) I can't search for girls with natural breasts, only fake boobs (same goes for only selecting for tattoos and piercings, not excluding them). Are you kidding me? IS THIS WEBSITE AN APRIL FOOL'S JOKE??
2) You didn't bother to import the fake/natural info from your old database, so all the natural pornstars have profiles that say their boobs are "unknown".
3) The profile layout is a mess, making it unintuitive to quickly find any info --- what was wrong with a list of attributes on the left and their values on the right?
4) The search engine's age field (along with "date of death") is truly bizarre. I can only choose from preset demographics, or I have to use fifty mouseclicks to specify a range of DOB's. How about just letting me type in the "minimum age" and "maximum age"? Was that too simple?
5) There's no units for height/weight/everything. Sure, I'll figure them out, but it comes across as half-assed.
6) In "My Collection > Babes", I can sort them by "relevance", and that's it. Is "alphabetical" too much to ask?
7) There's some animated chick that keeps trying to get in the way of me using the search fields.
8) The "List view" is an afterthought. Their profile photo doesn't use the full height of the row unless I hover over it -- why, is it just to annoy me? To add insult to injury, the right two-thirds of the row is empty.
9) The forums on my desktop browser look like they're from a mobile browser or phone app.

Seriously though... the most frequent thing I used to do on this website (every visit) was to quickly go to "Advanced search", pick "active", "pornstar", "natural breasts", and then sort the results by rank and look for any rising stars. And I can't do that now. Needless to say, that lowers my opinion of this redesign immensely -- it's a non-starter.

If you want to add a "cool search engine feature" though, one thing I'd like is to search by "cup volume", in CC's. So, for example, a 38B, 36C, 34D, and 32E all have the same cup volumes of 590cc, according to the table in this link:
https://www.laurengreenbergmd.com/breast/what-is-the-volume-in-cc-of-a-cup-size/
So the idea would be you could search for a particular (range of) size of tits without having to mess around with bra band/cup sizes.
