Model Mayhem and the like...
Care to recommend a good photographer/model website to me? I've been members of most of them out there and am in pursuit of the "perfect" one. Belows is a partial (meaning all that I can remember off the top of my head) list of sites I know about and maybe a comment or two about each one:
Of the list I feel that Model Mayhem is the best run and easiest to use. However, it's incredibly SLOW and the server goes down quite frequently. There's been a notice on the homepage stating "We are working on some server issues. Please bear with us!" (or something similar) for as long as I can remember -- at least 2 years. It's really a shame because despite it's MySpace-ish setup it's a pretty decent site.
One Model Place (OMP): This site sucks. It's probably my least favorite modeling site ever. I can't say enough bad things about it. Really.
Model Brigade: Essentially OMP run by someone else. This one has a couple of things that differentiate it however: it's currently free (a plus) and there's nobody on it (a minus). I don't have high hopes for this site.
Craigslist: Oh brother, where do I begin? In all fairness, I have had fairly good luck through CL. I've shot a number of both models and clients met through CL. However, I've also been stood up by flakes through the site. It's not the site's fault, of course, but as far as reliability is concerned I use it as a last resort.
Do you have a site to add to the list?
