The main complaint about Twinks 19 is that some of the boys look, or are, older than 19. that doesnt just come from me as the members forum holds posts along the same lines. So expect younger guys certainly, but not necessarily the twink age range. Mind you that goes from 18 to 23-ish so these boys do fit into the bracket, mainly, just. Whatever! These guys are lush and hot, there are plenty of smoothies in the exclusive videos and more in the bonuses which are reasonable.
Check your top menu to find the full range of content: Home is where the updates and news are with a coming next section to give you something to look forward to. Videos contains 19 full length scenes, Photo Galleries contains 17 galleries with around 200 pics per set, Bonus Galleries holds two sets, ditto the Bonus Video page. Top is your list of top rated content (as voted for by members), Personal Favourites is where you store your best bits, Members Pics was empty, Chat for Members takes you to the forum, Recommended Sites is a list of other pay to join sites and Mix Bonus has 100 pieces of additional content.
So, in a little more detail: The videos are exclusive to the company and you can download or stream them in two versions. I clicked the DVD quality version of the latest movie and my media layer opened. I was asked for my login details and the scene started to buffer, albeit slowly. The quality here was fine with a resolution of 1.03Mbps @ 720 x 576. Id suggest opening a movie this way and leaving it to buffer up for a while or else you'll suffer from start and stop. There was a lengthy intro to this one and I couldnt jump forward so keep the player open and look around the rest of the site while you wait for something to happen. I had no idea why two boys were in a broken down car in a field or why the passer by (who was very sexy) dragged them out and spanked them, or at least tapped their asses with a handy paddle, over the boot (trunk), but I am very glad he did. The sexy Russian accents were an added bonus even if the dialogue was a bit dodgy. Oh no mister, please no. Mind you, after 10 minutes of this I thought it high time he either fucked them or fucked off, but he kept going.
So download in two qualities or stream, its up to you, but what you get are decent length scenes that are well made and original and that feature sexy boys-cum-20-somethings.
In the galleries area there were less sets but they dated back to June 2008. It looks like updates here are usually regular, though there were none last November, and there is something new added every week or so. Galleries held a large number of images, up to and over 200 at times, and these were a good quality at 1,024 x 768. You can navigate through the sets easily and you get right in close to the action with nothing missed.
Scenarios vary from indoors to out, in both videos and galleries, with basic storylines that may start slowly but which will, eventually, leap into the sex. Standard titles like Teen boys love and Erotic and Hardcore; dont really help describe what each scene is about and there are no descriptions, details or stats. Youre left pretty much in the dark as to what to expect from each scene but generally they are similar. Two or more guys, a little build up, strip, suck, maybe a spank if youre lucky, and a fuck followed by at least one come shot. Sounds run of the mill but the boys are cute enough and at least these are original movies and galleries.
Lets move trough the rest of the content, the bonuses and extras. Its easy to do this as the top menu is clear and effective. In the Bonus photos and videos collection were only four pieces of content, but perhaps more will be coming soon. I dont know why these were not in the main content areas as they are on the same theme of older twinks. The Members Pics area promises to be interesting one day when something is added to it. I guess you can send in your favourite twink shots and share them but no one has so far. Go on be a pioneer and get the ball rolling. But in the Mix Bonus area were over 100 video clips and photo sets to view. I've no idea where these come from, I expect they are licensed in, but there are Mpeg clips to download here that came out at 504kbps @ 186 x 160 px in size. These were mainly solo jerk off cum shots. Nice and quick and simple.
The members chat area is the forum that all of the sites owned by the company share. You can click into any of the threads and read what other members have written. It looks like Twinks 19 got off to a rocky start as there were some complaints about the amount of content and the fact that there were no bonuses. Its fairly standard these days for a company to let you in to all of its sites for the price of one, or at least into some of them, but here you can only sample some sample pics and must then sign up if you want to explore further. Having said that, there are a goodly amount of sample galleries to be had so browse around the recommended sites page and see what you get.
Moving around the site is simple. The pages are image heavy but dont take long to load and the top menu is static. There isn't much information about anything or anyone and no model index. The updates appear to be happening regularly now and you can see what is promised next. The design is simple too and there are no pop-ups or unnecessary things getting in the way. Members can rate the content, add comments about it or store parts of it in your own favourites area; there is also a search engine so a good set of features to make your stay at Twinks 19 a pleasant one.
I have to agree with what members had written, that many of these boys are verging on the edge of the twink age range. These are not really teen boys and not really in the frat of jock category yet but there are some good looking 20-somethings appearing here. The videos are fine for quality and are exclusive even if the storylines are standard and some of the build ups drag on. The images, though thin on the ground, are good quality but updates appear regular. You also have some nice extras.
