Fitness Professional Bethany Howlett
I have to admit, when I hit the splash page at this site I wondered why it had been submitted to us for a review, because it didn't look particularly adult. Bethany Carter Howlett is a fitness model and freelance writer, among other things. I'm the first to admit that I don't really follow the fitness world, but it appears that she's quite well known within it. Anyhow, first a warning: there is plenty of sound on the free area of the site, so you might want to turn the volume down depending on where you are viewing. The free side of the site has quite a lot of content, including galleries of swimsuit/lingerie type shots. She's definitely one buff woman, with all of the attributes that I associate with the bodybuilding circuit, like fake boobs, nails and tan. There were dozens of galleries in the free porfolio section, opening to medium sized images. There is also a news section for updates on upcoming appearances, and updates to the member area of the site. The members lounge has about the same amount of photo content as the free section, but with a bit more nudity. Never anything explicit, and after viewing several galleries all I could think was "Blue Steel" from Zoolander. She does keep an online journal, with updates daily that are usually 1-3 sentences about travels, appearances and photo shoots. If you read the "fun facts" section you'll get a great snapshot of her very strong opinions on just about everything superficial. I found out she's a gun-toting, fat-people-hating conservative Republican that doesn't believe in monogamy or marriage (how does that jibe with the "republican family values" part, I wonder?) You'll also find fitness and nutrition articles she's written, and a video section with 16 short Quicktime video clips, either of her working out or her doing photoshoots. All of these are set to music, stream in-browser and are low resolution. She has a monthly scheduled members chat, a discussion board and an area with dozens of downloadable 800x600 desktop wallpaper images as well. In all, the content doesn't justify the monthly membership charge, but if you're a huge Bethany Carter Howlett fan you might want to join anyhow.

This was interesting, because on the login screen there were several options listed, but if you click on credit card access (which is via CCBill) the only option you're actually given is the $19.95/month recurring one.
