Frank's Tgirl World is one of those treasures of porn - it has personality, it has a great collection, and best of all it's been going strong for a few years now. I do have one thing I have to say right off the bat - like many Grooby sites, it has godawful navigation that alternatively makes me want to yank my hair out and punch the monitor. However, once you manage to get to the content you are going to forget all of your frustrations.
The member's area is simple enough - all of your relevant navigation is right at the top of the page, with the news updates in the middle. You will also see a few extra sections off to the right - I'll get to those in due time. The first order of business is to go right to the main content section, which is in the Jump Gallery and Videos section.
There are approximately 781 photo sets, although that is fairly approximate because it's rather hard to figure out how many galleries there are for all of the models. First you have to click in one of 74 gallery sections, then there are 6 - 10 models underneath that, which can have multiple sets. Do you see what I mean about it being damn complicated to figure out? The sets are worth it, however. The latest sets are 1280x960, although older photo sets are only 500x800. By this time Frank would have had to have gotten pictures of every shemale in Brazil, but somehow he manages to find new ones constantly. I don't know how he does it, but I'm certainly happy he does.
There are over 1200 videos, although to be fair these are usually more along the size of video clips than full length movies (around 5 to 6 minutes each on average). The latest videos have shown a pretty good increase in size. They started off many moons ago at 320x240, and today I get to sit here and enjoy a 1280x720 2 Mbps masterpiece. They still have the hand held shaky cam thing going on, but honestly that just adds to the charm. Like the pictures, I love the videos as well. It might not have the highest production value in the world when it comes to some of the older videos, but they just touch that special spot in me that gets giddy when a photographer is really into his work.
As far as extras go, Frank's Travel Blog talks all about his myriad adventures. After all, someone who films trannies for a living is certainly going to have an interesting life. There is also a chatroom to talk to other members, staff, and models, the grooby model of the week, shemale DVD reviews, a forum, personals, and even a travel log. In short, a lot of extras.
Although the navigation drove me batty, and the older videos could be higher quality, Frank's Tgirl World is one of those great shemale sites that will keep you busy for a long time to come. Weekly updates that feature multiple sets, exclusuive content lots of extras, and great personality all combine into a tranny porn site that really shines in a sea of cookie cutter crap.
