Today we're taking a look at what might be the longest-running shemale site on the web, Shemale Yum. This is a massive site that has years of updates of all kinds of tgirls from pornstars to first-time amateurs. The things that stand out the most about Shemale Yum beside the amount and variety of content and the shemales themselves is the photographers and the site owner. SeanChai, the site owner, is truly very involved with the site and has met many of the models and the photographers are all shemale fans who love seeing naked trannies play with their hard cocks.

Shemale Yum has been around for years, and since they've been updating for all those years, there are hundreds of pic sets. Finding the pics is odd because they are not listed with the rest of the links on the top of the page. To find them, look for the word Members on the upper left. Below it you will find a link that says Galleries. Click it to be taken to the photo galleries menu where you will find 7 options.

The member area of Shemale Yum gets started with navigation links at the top except for Galleries and FAQ, which are just below the word Members - Galleries on the left, FAQ on the right. Under this, on the left, you'll find site news going back a couple months and including update info, model info, a little marketing for new videos on DVD, things to come. If you want to see all the recent updates, just click Update in navigation links near the top of the page.

There are updates added to Shemale Yum about once a week in groups of 8, 9 or 10 pic sets and sometimes videos. You gotta hand it to a site that adds more shoots than there are days of the week - they certainly know how to keep their members busy. While ya gotta love the content at Shemale Yum, the page layouts are a little confusing not to mention old school.

Shemale Yum has several selections in the Galleries section but the one with most of the models is called YUM MODELS. Here you will find over 1241 sets of pics of sexy chicks with dicks, mostly solo or sometimes sucking the photographer's dick. The oldest pics are shown at around 400x600 but they start getting bigger as time goes by. Soon the pics are bigger, shown at around 530x760 and good quality. Some of the new pics are shown at 1280x960, which is pretty sweet, and you can download the new sets in a zip file to enjoy later.

While Shemale Yum focuses first and foremost on adding more pics to their already massive photo collection, there are still more videos to be found here than on any 4 normal porn sites. There are over 1487 videos here - not clips, videos. If you were to count the clips from all the videos, you'd spend all day counting. Instead, I'm going to tell you about the generals - quality, format, etc.

But first let me fill you in on a little about the subject material of the videos. I love the movies at this site. Handheld video cameras are the order of the day here at Shemale Yum so you might notice a little shakiness or turning of the images as you watch the video. I'm okay with this because I'll tell you something about the video guys at this site; they are actually shemale lovers, so this is not only a way to collect a paycheck - these video guys KNOW what tranny fans want! Not only that - in some videos, you see the videographers get their cocks sucked as a grand finale to the shoot. All in all, even if there are better quality and bigger shemale vids out there, you won't find many with that show the same appreciation of the models.

The oldest Shemale Yum videos are in Real Player format. Each clip can be watched by clicking on the screencap for that clip, and if you want to save a clip, just right click and save as. These oldest videos are shown around 320x240 and the quality is definitely amateur. The sound is good although you may hear just a little noise from the camcorder. As we work our way forward, the videos are offered in your choice of Real or DivX. I was unable to play the DivX clips but the Real clips played smoothly and was fast to load. Judging by the sizes - each video's size is shown - the DivX clips are somewhat better quality then the Real Player movies, so it's definitely worth giving them a try.

Somewhere in gallery 44 - each collection of videos here is called a gallery - the Real videos finally disappear and Shemale Yum begins to offer their movies in WMV as well as DivX. The WMVs are shown at 320x240, and while this is a little on the small side, these videos are sharp and clear. If you prefer, you can enlarge to 200% with only a little loss of quality. I don't recommend going full screen with them.

More features for Shemale Yum members to enjoy include the Big Log. If you want to know all about Shemale Yum, this is really interesting as it's the very honest story of how the site came to be plus its growth. After that, it is simply a blog which includes gossip and fun about the shoots and the guys and tgirls who are all part of the site. The member area also includes shemale personal ads, a guide to finding trannies in your area, health and safety tips, a forum plus a store in case you want to buy DVDs. And if you look to the left side of the main video page you will find text links to 10 tranny video feeds.

Beside confusing navigation, my only real complaint is that this site could REALLY use a model index. There are models I'd like to see there like Saigon Lee and Duda Little. Good luck finding them - you have to look through hundreds of pic sets. I suggest when you find a tgirl you like, you bookmark or make a note of her page or you may never find her again.

Shemale Yum is one of the biggest tranny sites out there if not the biggest. It's been around since 1999, which means tons of content. While the older videos and pics could be better quality, they are pretty much the best that was around when the site started. The newer stuff is better at amateur to good amateur quality. While this site has a lot more solo shemale masturbation than hardcore, it's got to have the best variety of tgirls I've seen. There are shemale pornstars and models and plenty of amateur trannies who have never appeared on a site before. If you're looking for a site that provides huge amounts of tranny content plus tons of updates, be sure to check out Shemale Yum!
