Know Thy Sole Contest Results

Image
The blog below was originally published in  Soles of Silk's  Column section. It was archived and then republished here in 2016. Seven entries... Yes, ONLY seven people bothered to enter this contest. Even after saying that the entries were slow to come in a few times on the site and on the forums, no one really entered. I guess it was just that hard. That being said, out of the seven entries, two people got every single foot correct. Yes, every single one. This is the break down of the scores: 200 points - 2 people 160 points - 1 person 85 points - 1 person 75 points - 2 people 50 points - 1 person For fun, I had some of the models go through the contest and guess which foot was theirs. Here is how they did: Charlee guessed #2 : She was correct Katie guessed #6 : She was correct Kimmie guessed #13 . She was incorrect. #13 is Wendy Abby guessed #1 : She was incorrect. #1 is Ginger Cierra guessed #5 : She was correct Layla guessed #17 : She w...

Hey Members... Contest Anyone?

Image
The blog below was originally published in  Soles of Silk's  Column section. It was archived and then republished here in 2016. Every so often I like to run a contest or two on the site. But one thing ALWAYS confuses me. With each contest, I set it up so that members have an advantage (with the exception of the graphic design ones). Whether it is a trivia contest and you all have access to things inside the members section, or with this current Know Thy Sole Contest, to where I am awarding members who win with more winnings than a non-member, I try to take care of all of you who have signed up for membership and wish to compete. But... But... HARDLY ANY OF YOU EVER TAKE PART. I have no idea why. If any of you would be so kind as to tell me why you might not be interested, I'd love to know. As I said above, I really want all of you to enter as well. You do realize that the prizes CAN be applied to current members, right? With this current contest, all of you members actua...

Random Notes - March 2011

Image
The blog below was originally published in  Soles of Silk's  Column section. It was archived and then republished here in 2016. It's been a few weeks since I've seen any snow falling - THANK GOD! And just last week daylight savings allows for the sun to stay out a little longer. What do these two things have in common? Well, that means I have time and better weather to do photo shoots. I can't wait to get the camera out and do some trips for outdoor shoots. Even though you can do a lot inside, I just really like doing outdoor stuff so much better. Charlee had fun teasing the little fellas in this upcoming set. Getting Fruity & Putting Lil Boys in Place Speaking of shoots, last week I did the first shoot since the Valentine's Day set with Kayleigh . Charlee and I were talking online and she expressed an interest in doing some photos again soon. Knowing that I always want her barefoot in front of my camera, I told her to give me some times. She told m...

Get Well Wishes to a Future Solemate

A future, hopeful model for Soles of Silk. The blog below was originally published in  Soles of Silk's  Column section. It was archived and then republished here in 2016. For those of you who frequent Wu's Feet Links Forums , you have probably come across photos of the girl above. She is the girlfriend of forum member Wazdaname. For the last year, maybe more, Wazdaname has been contributing regular posts that feature stories and photos of his girlfriend. She takes photos of her own feet and sends them to him and luckily for us, he shares them with us. I know I am not alone with this view, but anytime there is a thread made by Wazdaname, especially in the photos forum, it is ALWAYS a must see. For those of you unfamiliar with her, I've grabbed a few photos of hers from various posts and placed them at the bottom of this column. She is indeed cute and those long toes and soles are quite captivating. Now onto the reason for this column. For a few months Wazdaname and ...

In Their Words - Interview Section Improvements

Image
Cierra took part in the site's first ever, model interview. "I absolutely love Converse and I love doing sets that were my idea!" - Cierra The blog below was originally published in  Soles of Silk's  Column section. It was archived and then republished here in 2016. As some of you might have noticed with this update I have changed the layout of the Interviews section. This was done not only for design reasons, but because I wanted to begin showcasing follow up interviews, interviews conducted on other sites (like Wu's Feet Links ), and maybe even some future member generated interviews. At this point, I have titled all the initial interviews that appeared on the site as "introductory interviews," since most of the girls completed them immediately after their debut. Of course there were some other girls who took forever to do theirs (right Kelsey ?), but the same standard interview questions were sent to each model. Two of the models on the...

Cierra Slides Past Madison as Most Photographed Model

Image
The blog below was originally published in Soles of Silk's Column section. It was archived and then republished here in 2016. Since this site opened, one model had sat on top with the most photos of any of the others. That model was Madison . I say "was" because with this week's Baby Oiled Feet set, Cierra has slid past Madison's total of 1,832 photos with her 1,844. It's only 12 photos more, but more photos nonetheless. Both girls have 28 total sets as well. Truth be told, Cierra would have overtaken Madison's total months ago, but I decided to hold the several sets I had of Cierra's back. Cierra was unable to pose for a few months and I wanted to make sure all of her fans were getting at least a small taste of her little feet every so often. With her Baby Oil set now posted, I'm only sitting on one more set of hers, which is previewed below. It is a blueberry pancake and syrup set. We thought it would be a small nod to one of her early sets whe...
