Shanelle – mini-review
Underneath the picture thumbnails are 10 video clips, these vary in quality from good to, well not so good. With the top sites putting out very high quality videos these days I think Shanelle could up the quality a bit. The lighting could do with being looked at and a little more camera movement would have made the scenes more interesting. It may be that these clips have been reduced in quality to allow for faster download in the free area and that the members area will have full quality videos but I think we should be told.
The action is good, authentic and features people who are obviously into the spanking scene. There is a mixture of fem dom where naughty schoolboys are punished as well as the more usual girls being spanked. I am not sure if this will work for everyone, some are still firmly wedded to the dominant male theory and might find grown men bent over being well whacked a bit off-putting, for myself I don’t mind, as long as it’s not me bent over being whacked, even by Shanelle.
I note that some of the clips are labeled as having come from DVD productions, nothing wrong with that but I am not clear if they are all to be found in the members area.
Below the video clips are some more publicity for what appears to be a pretty thorough disciplining of a male, some captured on video and some on stills, the video is in full in the members area but the clip on show was pretty convincing. Towards the bottom of the page are some stills of video sequences to be found in the members area and that is about it for the tour.
On returning to the home page we can have a look at a selection of poems, an unusual innovation and very welcome, nice to see something honest and clear that we do not have to pay for, well done Shanelle. Wait; there is more, some great free stories, impressive and nice to see.
I would have liked to have seen more indication as to how often the site was updated and maybe samples of the updates, either pictures or videos. Membership to the site is quite reasonably priced at $24.95 for 30 days then $22.95 recurring, certainly not one of the most expensive sites we have looked at.
Overall, this site did not live up to what I had hoped for, navigation is messy, the pages are not well designed, too much is going on that detracts from the message Shanelle is trying to get across. I don’t like to get into a membership site and then be directed to other enterprises in such a brazen manner. Nothing wrong with advertising your parties or one-to-one service or your DVD and knickers sales area but I don’t like to see it as a part of a membership tour. It is a brave attempt to feature fem dom alongside the more usual, it may work and it maybe that if we get to review the membersarea the sins of the free area will be washed away by the quality of the videos and excellent action featured there. I would love to have given this site higher marks but for the free area I just can’t.
Having heard so much about Shanelle, one of the most respected ladies in the UK spanking scene, I was left wishing she would concentrate on spanking and being spanked and let someone else do her web site design, assuming that’s the way it works now. If someone else is already doing the design then, please Shanelle, find a better web designer and make this site what it should be.

Being a long term subscriber to Shanelles website I am very surprised at your negative comments and can see no purpose at all behind your remarks. I and obviously many many others enjoy this site and will continue to do so no matter what your amateur reviewers may say. You should remember that Shanelles site is NOT just about selling pictures and DVD’s it is much more about the real life FUN side of the Spanking/CP scene. Having met many REAL LIFE participants at parties I am sure I am not alone in voicing these comments

We hope the comments are not taken as destructive, they certainly are not meant that way. They reflect what a visitor to the site sees when hitting it for the first time. It may well be that if we are able to review the members’ area the site marks will change significantly. We can’t score a site on real life but on what it sets out to do which is to enroll people as members and as such it has to be open to scrutiny. We have the greatest regard for Shanelle within the spanking community and hope that you and others continue to enjoy the site.

I would like to add my support too the comments made by G Harris, I also have been a member of Shanelles site for a number of years and thoroughly enjoy bith the site and the friendly attitude of the other members. I wasn’t always a member and like everyone else I came upon the site and liked what I saw so joined and have never regreted doing so. It would not do for everyone to like the same things but for my own preference long may Shanelle run her excellent site.
Regards Alan
