Bars and Stripes – Full Review

The Latest News page opens with a vertically scrolling “News’ from Number One’s Office” bulletin box. Unfortunately the box is not wide enough to display all the text without horizontally scrolling the box, and as the scrolling controls for this are at the bottom of the box it makes reading the news somewhat more problematical than it should be.

Bars and Stripes female prison punishmentsThe Inmates Link open into a sub-menu listing the following girls:

Emma Brown, Michelle Brown, Sarah Collins, Rhiannon Diablo, Niki Flynn, Yasmin Garcia, Adel Haze, Amy Hunter, Rachel Lloyd, Saffy McKenna, Hannah Martin, Gina M0on, Dublin O’Brian, Jadie, Reece, Zena Stones, Leia-Ann Woods……….. WOW!
Clicking on any girl’s link opens up a records page for the girl with suitable prison mug shots, offense, sentence and background. This is followed by a list of picture galleries starring that ‘offender’ and the movies on the site she stars in. A list of movie frame grab sets finishes the page.

The gallery pages open in a new browser and utilise a Shockwave/Flash gallery system which takes an age to load. If, once it has loaded you click on a thumbnail image within the gallery a small (270×360) intermediate image is shown in the main window. Click on the ‘+ENLARGE’ link on that image and yet another new browser opens to reveal the full-size image which is 691×922 pixes in size. This is a convoluted system that really makes looking at images a chore. I have to say now that the use of Shockwave/Flash is a pet hate of mine as it causes no end of problems with browser incompatibilities and the customer being forced to download drivers and updates – something that may be impossible to do in a work environment … not that we should be looking at spanking material in our lunch-breaks … God forbid!

There are a lot of good gallery producing programs out there which do not use Shockwave or Flash. In my experience the less complicated you can make a site, the better and more reliable in will be. It only takes Adobe (the owners of Shockwave) to ‘improve’ a driver (a not unknown occurence) in a couple of years time and the viewing of image galleries on this this site could be rendered useless.

  1. In fact it is possible to download the video files directly by right clicking, without using the zipped version. I agree about the awkwardness of the galleries. Either starightforward .jpg files, permiting the use of a download manager, or zipped files as an alternative, would be welcome.
