Good luck Rieek,

There's only 37 different listings at IAFD for a Samantha, and IAFD is not the best on the Euro babes.

I like her pic though.

I generally avoid European productions for this reason. I know there are some fantastic identification resources, many of them right here in these forums, but I like to be able to find out about performers myself.

I'm especially glad that Lea de Mae, Monika Sweetheart and Susan Strong were all easily identifiable (for the most part), but how many times have I seen a totally gorgeous woman only to discover she goes by one name? (Well, not that many, but it happens.)

You're generally confirming me that all my efforts are more or less useless.

Sbando,

Absolutely not. Please don't denegrate yourself so much.

In fact, I would take the topic of the thread "question for the euro experts" to be directed more to you and the others that have a better handle on the performers and their names and their performances.

The "Samantha" record (she's actually called Katalin) even lists all her appearances on US Playboy's Newsstand Specials (with cover shots) and I've got her Playboy's centerfold ready for upload.
There are a few movies missing (the one by Viv Thomas, for instance) and I stubbornly forget to add Reality 5, for some reason. But you can't find a more detailed list than this one.
That's where the "useless" part comes in.

Thanks for your answer, indeed very helpful i didnt see a samantha listed and didnt feel like clicking through three pages of names, so i decided to ask the question. excuse my laziness. also i would never have been able to match her photo to the one time ive seen her. [ invalid url ] (though i like her better as a blonde.)

I still wouldn't call it 'useless' Sbando. It's more a matter of people knowing where to look, and people like you giving the guiding light.

Thanks for the info, and regarding listings such as IAFD, a lot of the Euro babes will have European titles missing from the list, particularly Viv Thomas movies. It's one of their weak areas.

NOT useless. Absolutely helpful. I for one make use of your fabulous site on a regular basis!

One appearance that didn't make Sbando's list last time I checked (I was going to e-mail it to him anyway) is Beautiful Girls 2. As with all her scenes, it is lez only.
She's also modelling for ALSangels (an offshoot of the mail ALSscans), you can see a preview on the main ALS site in the "ALS goes to Budapest" section.

It's frustrating to try to gather so much information and still hear people complaining about the lack of information about the same subject (not rieekan, in general).
You have: A PICTURE, A FLAG, ALIASES, links to boxcovers, links to fan's reviews, magazine appearances, magazines covers, links to galleries. Is that too confusing and too database-y? More than banging your head over and over again against the iafd search engine and their 15 (probably 95) Samantha's hits, which include fakes and doubles? Or, is it really helpful when you read: "Eva aka Piroska aka Gabriella"? That, usually, makes my brain hurt.
Now, I could go on and keep doing it as a "secret" database or go all the way, and make it a proper tool, something that it's going to stay.
But I've just read a thread in rame that really makes me think that all my efforts are useless, much more than rieekan's innocent request.
I don't wanna dig any further (HUGE CAN OF WORMS), but people like it the way it is (there's something sacred about those Ginger Lynn's 69 movies that can't be polluted by all the Zsuzsanna's and the Yelena's, isn't there? Oh, shut the fuck up).

Sbando,

As I said previously, please don’t denigrate yourself so much.

It is frustrating to many of us when we see a performer using an aka, and then don’t know where to find more information about her. Even when we go to your site, we may not know the proper name to search for her to find out more information.

Your site is a valuable resource to many of us that simply don’t have the wealth, or depth, of knowledge and information that you have provided. Many of us simply need the guiding light, and helping hand, that you can provide.

Please don’t get frustrated and abandon the ship. We need, and appreciate the help.

(btw, I am a big fan of a LOT of the European babes – if you haven’t suspected that already )

Don't worry be happy^^^ people will always complaint, is part of the job. All you got it do is keep enriching your site with info. what you are doing is a never ending process. believe me, people will learn to appreciate it sooner or later for what it really is; "An Oasis in the middle of a missinformation desert"

hey SB

as many Italian-Americans say over here ... fuhget about it ...

the problem is, alot of people simply dont know that your site exists. or they may not know that a girl is on your list, or the name that she is listed under. for example, just the other day i was asking Speelie by email about Simona Sun, and he told me that i should check your list! i told him that i check your list almost every day but didn't remember seeing Simona there. but sure enough, she was.

Sbando, I can sympathise with your sentiments. Although I guess my second post could be read as a complaint (which I know you're not saying), it just explains my mindset - a mindset I'm guessing a lot of other people share.

Your site is fantastic and I don't think I've seen so many pretty pictures in the same place at one time. And thanks to your efforts and those of a select few, I'd be confident about the quality and availability of advice in that area. I think that's helping people like me move more confidently into unfamiliar ground.

Of course that is more than enough information and thanks also for updating Katalin/Samantha's page The quality of information was never questioned (at least not that I can recall), but quite evidently the awareness of its existence and, to a lesser extent, the ability to use it are.

Just as a suggestion, I think it'd be great if you could write a FAQ on the subject and have it posted here, say next to Evil's Asian Porn FAQ. And then maybe some cross-posting on RAME, the Bomis Babe Report, possibly even AVN/GeneRoss/LukeFord, and an ongoing thread in this forum, to drum up knowledge and awareness (excuse the marketing student in me).

I think that would be of great use to readers and would hopefully alleviate your exasperation.

On the technical side, as I explained I had difficulty because I didn't see "Samantha" in the index, nor would I have been able to match her photo to my mental image of her (and I don't think I would have read every individual filmography).

However, there are some ridiculously technically-skilled people on ADT who could probably help you set up a search function for the index. Had I been able to search AKAs or filmographies, you would have had a hassle-free day Of course this is not an indictment of the index, just a suggestion and I'd be optimistic that the webdesign-savvy here (perhaps even Drew or Saki) might volunteer to write a simple search function for you.

Anyhow, those are just my rambling thoughts. Personally, I think your site is at least ten times more useful than mine and if there's anything I can help with, just let me know. I'm sure that there are a lot of other people around here who also appreciate what you do, and are willing to help out or make suggestions.

Cheers.

Sorry you're having a bad day Sbando. Not everyone is as computer-savvy as you are, so what's obvious to you is dark mystery to them. Nevertheless, be assured that many of us depend on your efforts and are grateful for them, which is why I posted the "thank you" thread earlier.

No, thank you, H.
My reaction had nothing to do with rieekan and the other people in this Board, don't YOU give up on me.
I'm trying to decide whether or not I want this to become a "serious" thing, hence my frustration. Nothing personal.
Here's a very interesting thread in rame about this subject. Maybe there's something in the air. Or maybe everything will stay the same.
Adding features to the site, as long as they're simple, it's not a complicated task, but it takes time and my buddies are all very Lazy Boys.

Sbando,

Just read your link to rame. From what I read, they gave you kudos for what you have done, and admit that their Euro data is a weak link.

i.e. - keep up the good work!

I think Steph should help Sbando to make his Index more visible to newbies and ADT'ers in general. ..How about a permanent link like the one PORN STUDIOS has? (just a thought)

Sbando:
Don't give up, your resource is extremely helpful and is essentially the only place I have gathered info on the euro actresses. As has been mentioned before, what would make your site perfect is an aka search or an aka look-up as that's what brick wall I usually run into, but please don't stop.

No, no, the site is back where it belongs: a fun project.
Take it, not as a wanna-be substitute of Internet databases, but as a gallery of beautiful girls (with some info added).

God no Sbando!...as someone who has just recently gotten into Euro porn, (if Patrick Riley hates something SO much it has got to worth checking out), and your index has been a great resource...I check in all the time to see if new girls and more pages have been added....keep up the good work.....
Thanks
