Boy Storm c-minus

Does Boy Storm deliver what it promises on the outside?

Hot Euro-twinks is the promise from this site, and there's some good sample photos on their entry page and within the site for those who want a free look at what's available--that's a nice feature (I wish more sites did so, and not just showing clothed shots, but nude shots as well like this one.)

But while there are some treasures to be had within the site, it didn't quite stack up well against the gold-standard ones I've seen and have reviewed (GayTeenStudio, DoggieBoys, etc.).

What's good about Boy Storm? What needs improvement?

The site is SLOW. I logged on in the morning on a Monday and evening on a Saturday and Tuesday, and for the most part, had to wait for 20-45 seconds for pages to load. Sometimes the pages loaded almost instantly, but that was more the exception than the rule. I had to hit the re-load button several times during my visits to re-start the website in my browser (I have broadband cable access.)

The website is organized fairly well. It has a small selection of video, mostly solo but with some multi-model action. The site has about 20 pages of model photo sets, most of which have about 45-50 photos. A lot of the photos are "wasted" shots--close ups of feet (although for foot-fetish types, that should make you happy), shots of the model's face from several different angles, but the percentage of nude photos is small compared to clothed for most models, and when nude, very few models jack-off to complete climax for the camera to capture.

Most models are of average looks, although some I would rate "hot!" The site has no Zip download feature, unlike some of the competition, so you must slog through a model's portfolio, a page at a time (with 12 photos) to select the ones you want to download; and then clicking on the photo simply brings you to a new page with a slightly larger shot; to get the full resolution image you have to click yet again on the "high resolution" link, and then click to save... THUS for saving a photo, you need to go through four clicks and then back out of it all... not a good way to do it.

This site hits two of my pet peeves on the head--the same locations used over and over for the photo shoots (with mostly the same model poses), and the so-called links for video and other features to associate sites require that you purchase memberships to view the content--the BoyStorm membership doesn't grant reciprocal access--so why bother? Argh!

The site promises that it's going through all it's model photo sets to make them all high resolution--and seems to be holding up that committment. (The site is actually a new incarnation of three former sites that featured twinks.)

The site also has a member area where one can post photos taken from the web for others to see... this area states that no logo'd shots will be allowed, yet they have some from GayTeenStudio and other sites I've seen posted there, and this section doesn't look like it's updated very often.

The site appears to update weekly, but my sample membership didn't last long enough to make a fair judgement about this aspect of the site.

How is Boy Storm unique?

The only real unique feature is that it's all about Euro-twinks. Aside from that, it's a middle-of-the-road porn site, with moderate value for the membership fee.

What do paying users recieve for their money?

You'll get some diamonds among average gemstones on this porn site, but for the money and effort, others would be far better to join.

D J Cruiser's review c-minus

September 3, 2007

Caricature of D J CruiserBoystorm is the result of several "Euro" twink sites merging and from the introduction pages you get a pretty good idea what it's all about. The galleries and videos will offer you male models between 18 and 20 mostly and all have that slim and youthful look. Read full review

Jerkoff Genius's review c-minus

August 26, 2007

Caricature of Jerkoff GeniusBoystorm is a merger of photo content from boy-oh-boy.net, 18stormyboys.com and megatwinks.net. The tour page promises "unlimited access to over 300 teen & twink models" and "dozens of video clips". This is an East Euro twinkie site, if you haven't guessed and the three originator sites above have been around quite a while. Read full review
