Sleazydream.com

Our Overall Rating: A

Our Summary: This is not your typical tgp. The main reason we included it in the study is that it is one of the few sites that uses thumbnail images that doesn't redirect and skim.

Sleazydream was towards the bottom of the update table. During the week we studied it, it added 10 or so fresh listings per day. The total content our crawler found was 31.7 MB of pictures and 86.1 MB pictures. This is low but understandable considering the style of site. We are not sure if it only lists its own content, but that is possibility.

Thumbs up to sleazydream for labelling their site indicating that the content is not for children. They did use one of the older style meta tag labels ... we would have preferred to see a newer ICRA label ... but something is better than nothing.

It was refreshing to see thumbnail hyperlinking without redirection and the inevitable skimming. They do mix in thumbnails linking to other tgps, however they use text above and below the thumbnail to clearly indicate the link goes to another tgp.

Overall, while sleazydream isn't your typical tgp, it is surfer friendly and very popular with surfers.

Our crawler downloaded http://www.sleazydream.com/main.html each day between 10th and 17th Jan 2005

Sleazydream Summary

	B	Very popular. Alexa puts sleazydream at #1,013 (the fifth best tgp that we studied), and the searches per month is a decent 82,459
	B	We ended up giving www.sleazydream.com a B. The listings start about one page down, but there are banners intersperced with the thumbs.
	A	Uses an older voluntary content rating meta tag
	A+	Sleazydream uses a large thumbnail (around 150 pixels) and a colorful quick description and an indication of how many pics or movies. This gets it an A+
	A+	Direct hyperlinking gets www.sleazydream.com an A+. One of the few thumbnail based tgp that uses direct hyperlinking.
	A	Sleazydream does not skim but does mixin semi-blind listings to other tgps. These are fairly obvious and are mostly clearly identified, so we gave sleazydream an A
	A	Sleazydream is not a typical tgp in that it only appears to list its own content. That said it still updated daily, however the daily fressh averages (pics: 4.0Mb movies: 10.8Mb) were ay the bottom of the list
