Vivid is a well known production company of scorching hot adult DVD titles and here we have their official site featuring hundreds of DVDs starring the gorgeous Vivid girls which I am sure some of you will be familiar with if you've ever had the luxury of viewing their videos in the past. The site covers a plethora of categories ranging from mainstream one on one hardcore to orgies and scorching hot lesbian antics!

Content:
Vivid is an adult company which prominently focuses on all out hardcore porn, they decided to screw all that softcore bullshit and bombard their fans with only the steamiest no holes barred fuck sessions for their viewing pleasure. The site currently has 276 full length DVD titles produced by the company featuring the hottest Vivid models around. There's no information on future updates though the latest one was uploaded last month on September 2009 so it's more than likely that the site is still active with new uploads, plus I am sure the company has quiet a few more DVDs up its sleeve in addition to the 276 already available. The only thing I can comment on is the lack of diversity when it comes to their line up of models as all of them are Caucasian ladies, however it's not all bad considering that they all look so very attractive, the only ethnic lady I spotted was the beautiful Tera Patrick, yes this well known pornstar is a Vivid girl!
So the line up of ladies may not exactly be brimming with variety however the ladies do get up to all sorts of naughty things so if anything the site's diversity comes in the different types of shenanigans the lovely models get up to in their videos. It goes without saying that the site covers the standard one on one girl on boy type romps but besides the generic hardcore scenes members can also indulge in all out orgies, the lovely ladies pleasuring themselves in intimate and sensual solo shows, steamy interracial fucking, and of course my favorite out of the bunch the saucy lesbian scenes. So unless you're a fetish fiend you're pretty much set for a piping hot porn buffet here.
The biggest disappointment by far would have to be the fact that all the videos on offer aren't downloadable meaning you won't be able to keep and cherish the scenes forever. Members have only been given the option of streaming the episodes which I am sure is quite the crucial issue for most members. Anyway at least the streamed videos do look great they are available in flash videos which are streamed right off the site. In addition to the videos each DVD also comes with a set of photos which contain roughly 600 to 1000 images per set and I was quite surprised to see that they were actual high quality photos rather than video captures. That said the photo collection is quite the massive one and the images look superb to boot!

Features & Navigation:
I have to say the site presentation of Vivid is outstanding it looks very professional yet at the same time quite flashy without over doing it, to put it simply the site itself is pure eye candy and better yet the layout is nice and neat and makes the task of browsing the site a walk in the park. Below the eye catching top banner there's a navigation menu which includes links that will take you to the vivid models section, the videos section, a page which includes all the latest news, and other third party services such as live cams, online dating site, special offers on other great adult sites, and a section which has a nice selection of Vivid merchandise.
Below the top menu there's a section dedicated to the latest update where you can stream the video and read up on the categories it covers along with a detailed description on what goes in the scene. Below you will come across the boxcovers of the 10 latest DVDs which have been uploaded. To view the entire collection of videos simply make your way to the archive using the "videos" link found within the top navigation menu. The archive spans across 20 indexed pages which contains up to 14 DVD titles per page. Clicking on the DVD box cover will take you to the main page of the of the DVD.
The main content section of the DVD is pretty much identical to the latest update section found on the homepage. You're video will automatically start streaming in the screen situated just below the navigation menu and has the usual pause, play, and volume functions. To the left there's information on when the DVD was uploaded, which models star in the DVD, the categories covered by the DVD, and a detailed description on all the naughty going ons in the scene. Below the stream screen You'll notice a film strip type menu, this allows members to choose which scene they can stream. Just above the stream screen is the link to the photo gallery from there members can view the photo set in standard thumbnail gallery layout so it's all fairly straightforward as you can no doubt tell.

Conclusion:
Vivid does just about everything right except for one crucial issue and it's the fact that members do not have the option of downloading the videos in offer as they are only available to stream. I can somewhat see why they do this from a business point of view as they do sell DVDs after all but it certainly would have been nice if members can download the content. Other than that major issue however the site is just about perfect, the hardcore scenes are hot, the girls even hotter!
