Testimonials from Subscribers and DVD/Video purchasers of Archives BBS.

Every so often, a user takes the time to let us know what on the service he likes, or why he or she is renewing. Here are a few positive comments received from subscribers:

5/23/05 - I am very pleased! Thank you very much. You offer a great value, and your business practices obviously matches that. I wish you continued success.

4/17/05 - Thanks for the DVD's. Your work is really good, and you get some beautiful models. Thanks as always.

4/16/05 - Noticed that you have the beautiful model Kobe on your list with first appearance DEC-04. I only know about her work as a Pantyhose Model. I was looking through the movie list but can’t find her appearance. Pls advise. Also interesting to know why she’s turning to bondage, wich is good because I believe shewill look great in restraints.Pls handle her with care and keep her in pantyhose.

4/10/05 - Hi again, Felix, Thanks for the latest video "No Parking". I received it last night but I was going out to help celebrate a friend's birthday at a local strip club. I did get to view it until today and it's great. I guess the more of them you do, the better you get. Is that still your house, it looks different than the place you shot in before. I have to say my favorite part was with Erica wearing those cute little 'hot pants' and her wrists in those special dual cuffs. She's really hot.

4/6/05 - We Thought We Were Pioneers - Fascinating to see a site that portrays bondage fun that my wife and I were sure that we were the only ones in the world that enjoyed these things. Various handcuffs and leg irons we bought through a police supplies catalog (we eagerly awaited the packages). My wife employed her sewing talents making a couple of straight jackets that I helped strengthen with leather straps and grommets, still inescapable to this day.

Our hobby carried us across the country over the years, literally. Our favorite game was the airport pickup where we alternated roles intercepting and surprising each other on the way to the car and announce an arrest. The captive would be handcuffed, leg ironed and pushed into the back seat and had to ride that way home. Once cuffed, no release until the specified time elapses. Depending on traffic, this could last a couple of hours.

We both like a little struggle. After 20 years, it's still very sensual to feel the exchange of control as the last wrist is pushed into the open cuff before it's ratcheted shut. When she's the captive, you can see a peace and steady orgasmic tension build.

4/1/2005 - I got the dvds in Vegas & arrived home yesterday watched them. Both top gear! Really enjoyed them. I cant wait for MSP 2. Who is Tiffany's  jailer? She'd look good in a set of transport shackles herself! Anyway thanks for the work in getting the dvds for me.

10/20/2004 - Finally, I was able to view the movie in peace and quiet. I really liked it. "Chesty", who looks good in the photos I've seen of her looks even better in movies. In photos she looks a little "bitchy" and stand-offish, and that really turns me off on ladies, but in the movie I can see she's really not that way and she's really very nice. When I heard her voice for the first time I thought she's really rather "curtsey" if you know what I mean. Finally, in stills she has a nice figure, but it really looks a lot better in movies. I went to sleep with a smile on my face (despite the Yankee loss). When I got up this morning, I went and got a cup of coffee and started the movie all over again. The second time around you see things you didn't see the first time. If I had to choose which episode I liked the best, I'd have to go with the Southmore Meetings. I REALLY like Chesty in those white pants and black top. If she was wearing underwear, I couldn't tell. I had the urge to run my hands all over her great bottom. I was thinking while watching it, if she could get an old guy like me excited watching it, what the heck is she doing to the young studs? She also looked great in the Hotel Hostage set. Her long brown hair and black underwear, and not much else looked great. She could go a long way Felix, you've got a winner there. It was also fun watching the short clips at the end. I've seen several of the models you featured in photos like Haven, Anglelisa, Nicole and of course, "Blonde", and I must say, they all looked a lot better in motion.

9/5/04 - a nice note from the new model Star - "Hey, I just wanted to thank you for hiring me to shoot with you. "Bondage" was a new experience for me, and you helped to make it more comfortable and fun! See you soon, Thanks, Star"

8/8/04 - regarding the MSP bondage DVD - Just some feedback on the video. Its excellent. The photography is great, the girls are pretty & the storyline is super. Good value for the money. I can't wait for the second video to be released.

7/19/04 - The MSP's Bondage World DVD I ordered arrived today and I just wanted you to know that your packing process saved the day. The priority mail container arrived at my local post office with 1/3rd of the box totally crushed and torn apart. Post Office put their little "Received in Damaged Condition" sticker on the box and delivered it. The damage did not extend to the DVD - in fact the jewel case wasn't even cracked. I've checked the playability and it works fine. Thanks for your prompt service, a fun DVD and secure packaging.

From The Netherlands on 7/13/04: I have just ordered the new MSP dvd - the same customer writes on 7/17/04: I have received the dvd today and indeed it's very nice. Thank you for the quick service!

6/1/04 - Felix - regarding images from 1 Jun 04 - Thanks for the images of Haven, Drew, and Courtney. - They are still my all-time favorites - even after years of other models, other web-sites, and a multitude of newsgroups. There's one Haven sequence I'd really like to see though - the title could be "with a little help from a friend, Haven finally learns how to unhook her bra and go topless" !! Hint ... Hint...Regards to you, Courtney, Drew, and Haven

5/7/04 - I just purchase C D # 07 and I want to say the C D was Excellent and all the girls were great.. For Haven she did a Awesome job, Lots of Excellent photo of her and a good job of her.. I did not see very much of Bobbie, Dawn, Sherry, And Courtney.. Hope to see more of this girls and Haven in the next C D # 8.. Any plans on when the next C D # 8 coming out?? Keep up the good work your C D they are Excellent.. P.S. I have purchase C D 1 thru 7 so far and there all Excellent!

4/08/04 - Felix, you have outdone yourself with the 3/10/04 (at Southmore House) shoot! For the past several weeks, as you've been releasing the set, one photo after another has simply knocked the breath out me -- literally. This is a whole new height. And there are obviously two factors involved.

One, of course, is that Chesty is clearly a very special young woman. The combination of soft, lush, & voluptuous with that incredible smoldering fire is astonishing, and she is an exceptional actress for the still camera to boot.

But the other factor is, just as clearly, that you've touched a new level of directorial empathy, and you're educing something really extraordinary from her. As she has appeared in each new setting from this shoot, I've just been bowled over by how wonderfully expressive she is, in a way that just doesn't happen by itself; it has to be evoked and nurtured and then -- hardest -- captured. This is bondage art at a very high level. So thanks for doing these artworks, and for sharing them with us all.

11/18/2003 - I really like a lot of your photos -- you're very talented (both at taking photos and a recruiting models who are stunning). While I think a lot of your photos are good, it seems that I write about every year or two to make a particular compliment on a photo. I think the one named br010721.jpg is especially good -- I guess I just like b&w photography or other photos with a limited range of colors. Great work! And my compliments to the model, Jessica. I know that it can be real work for a model to look so casual and luxurious.

11/11/03 - I just purchased a copy of Hexed! and it is a wonderful piece. I just thought I'd write to say it was put together well and I loved her different outfits especially her short red dress and her long dress that she had with the gloves. I was also watching the extra footage where she is wearing a gorgeous white dress and decided to ask your opinion and advice if you knew of another one with more formal wear and bondage? I'll await your reply and leave by saying once again you've done a great job with Hexed! - New fan from Australia

10/31/03 - Bondage Weekend Wager DVD received here in the UK with thanks. It played perfectly on my (multiregion) machine, and the video quality was excellent. Sidney looked like she was having a lot of fun (which, after all, is the idea). I'll be following up with an order for "Sent for Training" in the near future.

10/31/03 - Just got home from a long day. Your postings tonight are wonderful. I can't believe you withheld bg10658 all these years! I also loved the shots of Nicole. Great poses. She is incredibly photogenic..

8/13/03 - I don't know where you found "Chesty," but she is the best looking model you've had since Alix, and your photography of her has been superb! I don't know if you take any requests, but I would like to see as much of her as you can shoot - stills and video. Really, my compliments on finding such a great model and running such a great site.

9/10/1/03 - (from a DVD purchaser in the UK) Bondage Weekend Wager DVD received with thanks. It played perfectly on my (multiregion) machine, and the video quality was excellent. Sidney looked like she was having a lot of fun (which, after all, is the idea). I'll be following up with an order for "Sent for Training" in the near future.

4/17/03 - Felix, I've seen pix of Nicole on several other sites, and she's become one of my favorite models. But I must say that you have done the best job of capturing the Sexy Sprite that she is. Definitely 4 Stars!!!!

2/10/03 - Just wanted to drop you a line. I've been a fan of your stuff for ages, man. :) Your site was the first site I got up the nerve to order off of back when I was an Internet newbie, and I've been downloading ever since.
Since a lot of places are doing DVD now I've developed a pretty decent collection (I never bought much VHS). Anyway, so far I have 11 of your DVDs. I certainly hope you keep churning 'em out so I can buy more. :) Your still photos have always been great but I'm really loving the motion. Loved the plot of "Fiancé Lockup". And I love anything with Princess or Sydney. Or Erica. Or... heck, all your models are awesome. :)
Anyway, the reason I started this spiel... as great as your new material is, the fact that you've been releasing the really old stuff on DVD is almost as wonderful. I can't tell you how blown away I was to see those really old scenes of Michelle, Renee, and Whitney that you added as extra footage to "Fiancé Lockup". I remember downloading and watching some of that stuff in little postage-stamp sized files. :) It's just SO cool to have that old footage large and on DVD now.
I also just got Video 1 on DVD... Gwen was always a fav of mine and so it was great to see those scenes full-sized. I really hope you'll dig out all the old stuff... I remember a lot of tiny little Diana clips for instance that I've not seen on DVD yet. And if you had Sara or Lana or Mina clips... wow. :)
Okay, I'll stop now. I usually don't do "fan mail" so I am trying to cram years of fanning into one post. ;) Bottom line... old stuff, new stuff, it's all great and I hope you keep producing for a long, long time. :)

2/6/03 - Hey there, Felix, sincere and hearty congratulations on a MAJOR milestone . . . and closing in fast on 10000! Bravo! I hoped to mark the occasion with a new story, but as usual it's very slow going at my rate; but I'll keep you posted.Congratulations again, and best wishes for the next ten. Thanks for everything!

2/2/03 - Congratulations with the first ten years, Felix! I think I've been with you since 96 or 97, and I can only wish you the best for the next 10 years. I think your site is still one of the very best on the Internet, and the daily update from Archives BBS has become a most welcome break in the dull routines of everyday work. Keep up the good work! (Oslo, Norway)

9/10/02 - Hi, just received your video, Bondage Appointment. and I am sure pleased with the quality of it, and the girl is great! Hope you come out with some more videos, as I will no doubt purchase them.

7/11/02 - You were right. I did like "The Prisoner"! I expected the pretty girls, well done bondage and high technical quality. I was pleasantly suprised by the acting ability and the humor. Any chance of a sequel? Also I hope to see a prisoner in front cuffs & a waist chain at least once if there is a sequel.

6/23/02 - I have seen many other bondage sites, but your site has the most consistent high quality - pretty models, excellent photography, varied scenary & wardrobes and soft-core bondage.

4/2/02 - I consider Jessica to be one of the most beautiful models i have seen in a while. I was looking at her latest pitures and was just at awe. I would like to see her though in a grey or black business suit with a white blouse, tan or black stockings, and black pumps handcuffed wrist & ankles both behind her back and in front as well as bound with white rope.

4/2/02 - The Unparalleled Greatness of Felix - From time to time I feel the need to let you know how great you (the site that you created and have maintained since long before current net sites) are. I often feel like composing a righteous letter descirbing all of the contributions you make, but I never seem to have the time that would take.
So, tonight I send just a brief note of respect, admiration, and thanks. The breadth and depth of Archives is completely unequaled and no other comes even close! I have wasted tons of money surfing around, and I am sure that you have thousands of subscribers who have had the same experience. I have found a couple of good ones that I stay with, but none to touch Archives. If a decree were announced that by vote of surfers, there should be only one adult site left on the net, my vote would go to Archives and I would adopt hundreds of e-names just to lodge more votes. This don't come out of nowhere! It comes from years of experience with BBS and then the NET. All I can say is, "THANK YOU"

12/28/01 - Hi Felix, fantastic work. I am a pro photographer but you don't have to be one to see the greatness. I just sent in my order for Transporting Janine. Your video previews are very compelling. I was going to get a tape from someone else, but after seeing the trailer and the great atmosphere and a super cute kind of innocent looking girl, I could not help but get yours instead. I am very exited to see the tape. I also want Hexed ,Weekend Wager looks great and Ten Tight Positions.

11/27/01 - Re: [ARCHIVE] Felix wins "Best Bondage Writer" - Congratulations, Felix -- of all the awards this year, I think yours was the most-deserved in its category. Obviously nobody campaigned for that stupid "Best Scene from Mainstream Media" category, but in all the other categories, the other commercial webmasters waged relentless campaigns of Usenet spam and self-promotion to drive out the vote for themselves and their models. Your award was classy: a rare case of the clear-cut Best in Show winning on his own merits. Well done!

9/20/2001 - I just wanted to send my compliments on the "br" photos posted today, especially br008407.jpg. I really like the unusual lighting, the very attractive model, and the limited number of colors. Most of all I like her thoughtful, wistful expression -- as if it's a "real" moment, and she's expecting someone to come in to the room soon. It seems to hint at a deeper story, and that really makes a picture look good to me. Anyway, great job.

8/23/01 - Felix, -I've been a member of Archives for about a year now, and I just want top say that Chelsea is your most beautiful cuffed captive yet!!!! Do you know if there are any other sites that feature her? Man, she is simply gorgeous. If you can, please pass the word along to her that at leat one member thinks she is absolutely the hottest model in the history of the site! Anyway, Archives is the best bondage site on the web, keep up the great work!!!!

8/21/01 - Felix: The tape arrived today. WELL WORTH WAITING FOR! I can't wait to see what you do next. Though I would like to request seeing several models in formal attire properly bound and gagged! :-)

7/3/01 - Many thanks for sending me the CDs so promptly. Since I'm like a kid with a new toy, make I ask some questions? I've had no problems accessing, by the way (I have Windows 2000). The files on the main menu that show the model's name--Alix, et al: are they a duplication of what's on the other files that are listed by number? The screen setting: I suspect I'm capable of getting 1280x1024, is there an easy way for me to do that? I printed the complete list of files for each CD, so that I can have that guide as I view the images. Again, congratulations to you on your fine work. Your taste in women too.

4/21/01 - Living in the UK I have always been wary of making purchases, especially in the light of what many have said about the UK customs. However, I recently decided to purchase a video (Transporting Janine) and having asked Felix for his advice duly placed the order. 4 yes FOUR working days later a ring on my doorbell heralded the arrival of my video. First of all, congratulations to Felix for such service, and even more congratulations for the content of the tape. I will be ordering a second, as soon as my next pay-check arrives Well done felix, and thank you!

2/21/01 - Yes please! Renew for another six months. The quality recently has been truly astonishing. Your service is getting better and better. Well done!

2/21/01 - My tapes arrived today. All I can say is WOW! and of course, THANK YOU! I will probably be looking at some more of your tapes in the near future! I gotta say while the Weekend tape is a sexy idea, Hexed is SOME HOT!

2/2/01 - I just wanted to tell you, well, you found a diamond... again. Be assured, I like most of your girls, but some of them are just... wonderful. Samantha is one of these girls, I adored her wearing her cuffs so... dignified. Even captured in steel she is a lady, full of grace and beauty. And seeing the latest two pictures with the new handcuffs, I can only hope there´s much more where these came from. Great work (...hey, I didn´t forget that a good photo not only requires a great woman, but someone able to capture the spirit of the moment), absolutely great work. Thank you!

12/16/00 - I like a lot of your photos, but have to say that bb007621 is unusually good for some reason I can't quite articulate. It must be something to do with the limited color range. (That's in addition to the really hot model, great production values, and other treats from your work!)
Also, I love photos where the model seems to be showing some kind of thought process -- no matter what the thoughts seem to be (pleasure, nervousness, anger, affection, or just lost in her own thoughts like in this photo). I like these a LOT better than photos where the model seems to be "posing" and is just looking at the camera with a blank expression. Anyway, great work.

12/15/00 - My name is Ovidiu, I'm from Romania, Europe.
A few days ago I came across your site, don't remember the link, but... I strongly believe that your is the best site I have ever seen on the net. Your ladies are the most wonderful, and I especially like Sydney. As a matter of fact I have been thinking about ordering her video Bondage Weekend Wager. Could you please send me more detail about it, how to buy it, because I have never - until now - bought anything through the net.
I love you and I'll definitely come back more often to your site. You've got style, class and ... you're the best (I'm no kidding at all)

12/11/00 - I have been enjoying your site for some time. Just wanted to let you know that your latest set of pictures with Samantha (handcuffs, shackles, connecting chain & no gloves) are excellent. Good job and keep those great pictures coming.

11/30/00 - You were the best on BBS and you're the best on the web.You could make a fortune designing user-friendly web sites for big corps!!!!!

9/10/00 - I had the pleasure of reading the first two parts of Campus Parking Ticket Roundup and wanted to comment on it. You are an excellent writer, and I make a living writing, so I don't make such compliments idly. You're willing to take your time, let the eroticism creep in. You don't try to bludgeon the reader with sex or sexual situations, but try to start with reality and take a detour, veering back to reality often enough to make the erotic parts seem realistic, even though they aren't.

9/10/00 - I just watched your video with Courtney, I am impressed! It is lightyears ahead of your first one. I hope you do more with this Gal. You have an excellent sense of color composition,something the other producers should take learn from.

8/5/00 - I just want to let you know, that your photographic work and your videos are the best I know.

5/30/00 - I hereby solemnly declare my first week at the Archives BBS as the week of Haven! Let it further be known that December 15th, 1999 is a memorable day, for on that day an angel has been caught, in cuffs and on film. Greetings, Mr. Dartmouth!

I just have to say I´m deeply impressed by your archives, and I´m very glad I subscribed. The models are REALLY gorgeous, but what I really like is your way of photographing them. Fetish is a sensitive matter. Often, the women look cheap, like pure objects of lust, without personality. Let me tell you that I, for instance, don´t like gags... I think they´re degrading. People might say:"Hey, you like HANDCUFFS, like to BIND women and dare to talk about degradation?" Yes, I dare. In my eyes, handcuffs say "Please stay" - a message that I can agree with. But gags say "Please shut up" - and that´s where degradation really starts. Bondage is so often connected to SM, to submission and pain. These are not my feelings. That´s why I adore your photoes... you show us angels, you show us ladies. We can respect and love the women you show us. If I had your gift, I´d try to make the very same art that you do.

Sorry for so much words about a thing you already knew. But in this branch it´s unfortunately not natural that a lady in cuffs is still a lady and should be treated with the same respect. Let me tell you again: I´m so glad I subscribed... I found so much beauty yet, and I know I will find much more. Even the download limit is okay, because it keeps the fun high, to know there is more, and not to view it all on one day, with bleeding eyes, and unable to really appreciate it.
One more thing: I like your straight style. Too often people think that there is need to put more and more into a picture, more jewelry, more rubber, more anything. Yet you´ve shown us how absolutely beautiful a model in just a black T-shirt can be... wonderful pictures, thanks a lot. Feeling so good about your art, I decided to give you the attached picture as an exclusive... so if you DID NOT like my art, please tell me and I´ll put this pic into my own pages. Until then, I´ll publish it nowhere else. Just a little gift hope you like it.

5/27/00 - I want to let you know how much I appreciate your well-maintained site. Also wanted to congratulate you on keeping the it simple, light on graphics, and devoid of ads-- it's rare to find a site that cares about the member experience these days.

5/7/00 - I did get my video I ordered which was the fastest service I ever got in ordering off the web!

1/28/00 - I take keyboard in hand, after many months (years) of gratitude for your work and your contribution to mi divertismo, to offer you, at last, my graditude, admiration, and support for you outstanding and unique contribution to me and others.
When I first began visiting the BBS site, I sometimes wondered if there is a real and actual person, Felix Dartmoth. What a great name!! It is either invented or you are one lucky guy to have it laid on your head as an infant.
As time has passed, I begin to see you as a real and actual person. But, be that as it may, I thank you--person, congolomerate, or imaginary--I would just like to thank you.
If you are in the real category, you may possibly recall this incident. When I first signed on to Archives BBS, I sent a message broadcasting my name and credit card number. (What a klutz!) It was late and you happened to pass by and notice my mistake and notified me immediately. That was impressive!
I spent a lot of time on the BBS and went through several sites in my ramblings. There were Farmer's Daughter and Windy City, to name a couple of the best. But, Archives always had more variety and class, and, I, naturally, spent more time there than anywhere else. And, as time went by, Archives became the only site I visited on BBS.
As Archives BBS dial-up system began to fade about a year ago, you urged me to get on the net. It took a few months (and the BBS dial site continuing to fade) for me to get it together, but, when I did, I was AMAZED!!
Now, after checking out links, I still find that I spend about 90% of my BD surfing time (more like 98%) in Archives.

1/10/2000 - Just wanted to write and thank you for bringing Haven aboard! She is the most exciting model since Dawn; for me that is. Beautiful body, beautiful, long hair...just what I have been waiting for!!

12/4/99 - Good job with the new real media videos. Excellent as always. Also, excellent selection of the new model, Sydney. Just wanted to pass on my once in a blue moon thanks for running a great site.

12/4/99 - Felix: You continue to surprise with your artistic sense (the colors and the cat), your technical skills (they were the highest quality images I've seen. I was able to run them on full screen), and your selection of models. Sydney is obviously very attractive. But she also communicates an arrogance or disdain that adds to the fantasy of taking the lady down a peg or two. I really admire your work.

12/1/99 - Just thought I'd send along a compliment and a wish that you keep up the good work. Mina has almost eclipsed Julia as a favorite.

11/18/99 - Thanks for your quick reply. However, I've spent much time on your BBS just trying to find the next story of "A Woman Imprisoned in Bondage", but I still cannot find the EXACT one. I must admit that I like that novel very much and I am eager to know what happened after Angelica was put into that erotic prison.
I know it's just an exerpt from "An Easy Job", but I just don't know where I can read the WHOLE novel. I found your "Damsels in Distress", but only 12 earlier stories from "An Easy Job" appears. I also used the file search to search "Angelica", "An Easy Job"...even "Felix", but I still could only find some odd stories that weren't the continuation of "A Woman Imprisoned in Bondage".
Please be kind as to let me know the answer as soon as possible. Your story has aroused me up but how can you just show me an abruptly ending that way? This is a kind of torture and cruelty. :)
In my country, it very hard to apply a VISA of Mastercard since the communist country just don't allow people to freely take capitals to the outside world. So I wait almost a year to get a VISA and pay to be your BBS member! Please take this into your consideration ---- for almost a whole year I have imagined many times how Angelica's story should go on and now I cannot wait to see the answer!

11/8/99 - Comments: Felix; I have been peering at this subject matter since the early 60's (still have the 8mm films!). Your site is more fun than anything I have experienced in say 35 years. And I must tell you your bb*.* files are superb and I am in love with Dana - she must be the reason the word elegant was invented. Your site has class - thanks for all the work you must be putting into this thing.

8/31/99 - Wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for the most complete and beautiful erotic site I have found. That goes for BBS too! Man, what a brillant contribution you have made to my last few years of a life long devotion.!
Again, thanks for being there and doing such a tremendous job.

8/3/99 - Received your confirmation. Everything seems to be working fine. You are a wonderful artist.

7/3/99 - Sue Anne is THE reason I am purchasing the CD-ROM! Have always enjoyed your site, and it only keeps getting better.

7/2/99 - I heard of your site through many links and sample pics, and they are some of the best and most original photos I have seen

5/31/99 - You know, Felix, you really ought to post a health warning to all your subscribers before unleashing pictures of Sue-Anne wearing contraptions like that. I'm wandering around the house in a state of shock, barely able to put coherent sentences together, and my family are concerned for my wellbeing. Still, my blood pressure is slowly returning to normal and I should be back on solids in a day or two.

To be serious, though, your latest set of images is astounding. Not only have you locked and bolted poor Sue-Anne into a space-age version of a medaieval torture instrument, you've also placed her by a window in full view of a bunch of people in a parking lot... no wonder she looks more than a little exercised. That's a remarkable piece of bondage equipment you have there, and I sincerely hope we'll be seeing more of it before too long. It looks deliciously heavy and uncomfortable - it would be interesting to learn just what Sue-Anne felt about her session inside it, and how long she was able to endure it before pleading for release. Dare we hope that it - with, of course, its willing model - will feature in an mpeg file later in the year?

Thanks again for a great set of images!

5/2/99 - re: "Capture the Flag" - Sometimes when I see something that I think is great I can't help but communicate my pleasure. I LOVED this concept. Hope things go well for you. Bill Majors http://www.bondage.org

3/25/99 - If there were such a thing a Playboy Magazine during the 90's, it would be Archives BBS! Felix at Archives BBS photography is heads and shoulders above the adult froth available, even in America. They capture a certain quality of what married people think Love Bondage is about.

3/21/99 - Completing my CD collection - please send me CD02 and CD03. CD01 was fantastic - love that Diana!

3/16/99 - I must comment that Mina alone is worth my entire subscription cost !! I'd like to see CD's produced by model including all images !

3/15/99 - I just wanted to compliment your photos of Mina. Out of all the great models and sets you have presented over the years I think this is your best work. Kudos to you and Mina. I look forward to seeing more in the future hopefully.

3/12/99 - Just a short note to say thank you for posting more of Mark Marrs excellent photos. What can I say, they are fantastic! Hopefully you still have some more up your sleeve. Keep up the good work and thanks for making your site so enjoyable.

3/2/99 - Rec'd my password yesterday. How many times have you been told that you have the best website? The site is remarkable. I have been into bondage since I was 14, I'm 59 now. I don't have to surf the net anymore. Thank you. Will you please tell Sue Ann that she gets an old hillbilly's heart started every morning. In my eyes she is a treasure.

3/1/99 - Many thanks for the Mark Marr CD you sent me. As a big fan of Marks work I wondered if you had any plans for more CD's of his work. I have seen many of his pictures over the years and would love to see more. Keep up the good work, you have a wonderful site.

2/23/99 - Thanks Felix, your site is great and I'm enjoying your's and Phil Anderson's photo sets. As I mentioned once before, noose play photos are my favorites, so please keep them featured.

12/19/99 - ABSOLUTELY THE BEST - i become a member of your site about a month ago and still havent seen everything. All i can say is that your site is incredible good. I've browsed through many pages (free and pay-sites), but with a few exceptions, most of them are garbage or full of advertisements. Your site covers all i'm interested in.... photos..... drawings.....and stories. So for me, i've found the site i was always looking for. Keep on with your good work.

11/25/98 - I have been a subscriber for a little over seven months now, and am impressed beyond description. Alix was the first of your models I ever saw - and she alone inspired me to join. I agree completely with your suggestion that her in latex alone is anything but tame. It is hard to find images of women who have expressions that show how much they enjoy the bondage. I know feigned fear in some shots is always a nice touch for dramatic effect, but some of us like our bondage partners to be comfortable and happy - and your models are amazing.

11/20/98 - (From another website's feedback area) - >And while we're at it let's bring some order and sanity back into this country and the world! Let's start the second millenium off right and elect Louis Cypher and Felix Dartmouth President and Vice President of the United States (or maybe Emporer and Prime Minister of the New World Order!!!!)

11/14/98 - I just received your Mark Marr cd and I just wanted you to know it is SUPER and I am very very pleased!

11/5/99 - Sue-Ann, always Sue-Ann - I know, I'm becoming boring, but the last pictures of Sue-Ann are simply *WONDERFUL* !!! My compliments to you for your ability to catch the best of the femmininity of your delicious models, and for the excellent photographs. And my compliments to your chained beauties! Thanks again for your invaluable work!

10/30/99 - a doctor - Eek! call me a doctor! I've just seen Sue-Ann handcuffed in her PVC microminidress!... I've got no words! Your girls are every day more and more beautiful and exiting, what can I say I haven't already told you ? BTW, have you contacted the German site about manacles ? If you decide to put any picture of Sue-Ann in manacles on your site, PLS! advise me, I must be prepared...

10/24/98 - I wasn't at all sure about Sue Anne when you first started using her as a model. It was that look in her eyes. I couldn't decide what it might be. It might have been a look of pleading. It could have been discomfort, or apprehension, or even fear. Whatever it was, she looked distinctly unhappy. Well, look at her now! What a transformation! Your latest images of her are studies in poise and elegance. She looks so proud and so confident in her bondage. That serene expression of hers speaks volumes. We even get smiles out of her now. She's very obviously enjoying herself. She's also very beautiful. And is she bashful? Hell, no. I look forward eagerly now to every new image!
Thanks, Felix, for bringing out the best in her so quickly. Thanks also for the new innovation of thumbnail images - these are already proving a real boon and have made the best image collection on the Net even better.

10/20/99 - Yo Felix, about the thumbnails: - GREAT, FANTASTIC, SUPER, OUTSTANDING, FABULOUS, TERRIFIC. Your new thumbnail browser makes you the number one site in my "Book"mark. Please, keep up the great work. Do you plan to bring your past pages into the thumbnail era? Your content and state of the art pages, (back button brings me back to where I started instead of going to the top of the page) will make other bondage sites green with envy. P. Anderson series is just too good to be true. Lucky guy.

9/15/98 - It's a long time we haven't had a talk via e-mail. I wish to congratulate with you for your work, excellent as usual. But I also want to subpoena you! Do you want *TO CAUSE US A CORONARY* ???!!!

You can not put such dangerous images of Sue-Ann with impunity! Do you want to kill all of us ??? I've never seen a girl more beautiful, elegant, lovely, gorgeous etc etc! How can I resist when you show me this lovely blondie with that pair of marvellous legs and breast, handcuffed and laying her chained wrists on that column ? How do you pretend that I react when you show me that dream of girl wearing that microdress and that pair of lovely sandals at her lovely feet ? And what do you want me to do when you show me her nude on the bed, chained and smiling at me ???
You surely understand I'm joking, I'll never subpoena you! but please, believe me when I say that I've felt in love with Sue-Ann: she is so lovely and beautiful I am afraid that she is not real! Thank you for these and all the other wonderful and elegant bondage images you give us every day, and please... more and more images of Sue-Ann in the future!

9/13/98 - I really like the new pictures with the portrait-style lighting. I *especially* like bb004952. (Cross-lighting is great for emphasizing textures, including Sue-Ann's bustiness.) I hope you extend the use of portrait lighting to some of your pictures with a less moody feel, too. (A big piece of foamcore board used as a fill card would bring up the fill light without having to set up more lights.) In any case, keep up the good work.

8/25/98 - If writing provides any encouragement, please take this as such. The P. Anderson files are, in my opinion, the best professional work on your site (with the esception of yours, of course) I have seen in a while. His models are fantastic, and his bondage work is creative and exciting. He brings out the tension of the scene well. Please do what you can to publish much, much more of his work.

8/8/98 - Once again I am amazed by the content of your site. You definitely have the best site on the web. Keep up the good work!

8/4/98 - Still best site on the net!!! All steak low on sizzle.

6/16/98 - Have enjoyed the adventures of Stacy and and company. What a howl!! Do you plan on any further installments? Same for Gagorder, Into Custody, and Campus Parking? Also have renewed my acquaintence with the artwork of Jim, Eneg, and John Willie - love that Gwen. Look forward to more hidden treasures in next postings.

6/9/98 - It is doing excitement to your letter very much. I am the fan of your homepage. I have already enjoyed 1 and a half or more year, your homepages. It is pleasure for me, that I received a letter from such you. Thanks

6/6/98 - Better and cheaper than Viagra

5/20/98 - Your site is the best site on the web, bar none. It is incomparably better than all the rip-off BBS and adult sites out there.

5/14/98 - I love CD 2 and CD 3! Put me down for the Mark Marr CD 01!

4/12/98 - Thanks for the pictures of Dawn in the transparent white raincoat. Great shots and great composition. Thanks also for going light on the bondage - it is not exactly my cup of tea, but the quality and imagery of the shots wipes it all away. Thank you again; looking forward to more! There is something special about a woman's body veiled by the wet-look, transparent plastic. Especially a raincoat. Because it follows the lady's form, but creates enough of a halo about the tight shape to highlight the natural curves.
It is like a gift that is hidden, yet not. Like a landscape wrapped in fog; the shapes silhouted against the dim, transparent vapor. And then the sun's rays break through and strip the fog away. Suddenly, the landscape is all there in the bright sunshine. That which was hidden is not. To be appreciated and marveled at. I just live for the moment before the light breaks through. When there is still a little doubt and the bright sun has not stripped all the mystery away.
I was born in a Communist country and from a very young age I had to learn 'double-speak'. In our situation, the truth could kill all of us, so truth had to be hidden in words. Somehow I've incorporated that into my sexuality. I seek the truth, but appreciate it more when it is hidden and veiled in clever riddles. Sorry to go on so, but the images bring the words. Thanks again.

4/12/98 - I got CD-ROM 03 rather quickly. All I can say is WOW!!!!!

4/8/98 - I received CDRom's 1 & 2 yesterday. They are everything I expected and more. I especially liked the index by model on CD 2. It's also nice to be able to view the video files without waiting for them to download. Great Products!

3/13/98 - Thanks for the improvement on the Publication Trading Database. The difference is dramatic. I wrung it out pretty good - and no problems. Having the display fields scalable is appreciated. One of the best uses on the web I've seen for MS Access 97.
Thanks also for the Mark Marr postings. He is for me one photographer I can trust to always deliver excellent bondage on attractive models. And to my knowledge all of images prior to the Cody & Libby sets are previously unpublished!

3/11/98 - Absolutely outstanding picture! Thank you very much for your dedication, creative inspiration and kindness in bringing such pent up and seductive beauty to the Net. It is greatly appreciated.

3/4/98 - Congratulations! Once again you have scored a success - a double success. The Mark Marr photos are superb, and date from one of my favorite times in the Bondage world (I wonder if he ever got to work with Jennifer West, or was that before his time?). In any case, I will wait with bated breath for more of the same (I hope). The latest Alexis series is also superb, and the costuming is particularly good. I wonder, did her her feet ever get tied to the chair (it would be a nice touch). All in all, these are two of the reasons why your site is my favorite to date, and the one I always look forward to visiting for the latest updates.

3/3/98 - Marvelous Marr! - Thank you for posting Mark Marr's work! It is fantastic. I don't know how I've missed his material all of these years. And his models, Judith is my favorite and I have seen advertised his videos with Teri. Do you know is there a complete filmography of his work? Anyway, thanks for the postings. I do hope there are plenty more where they came from.

2/19/98 - Your latest Alix pictures are great. My favorite is BB004072 but 4073 and 4076 were also outstanding. The darker lighting and rich colors set a tone for a very pretty lady. The scene intensity is outstanding. There can be no doubt that that ball gag was in there to stay and Alix did a nice job of displaying her distress. A heart stopping set of pictures.

2/10/98 - Archives BBS ==> Usenet Legend

2/8/98 - I have greatly enjoyed the last 6 months, and looking forward to more enjoyment. Felix, where do you get such great looking women to pose for you? Your pix are the best1

2/8/98 - I've seen this site before, but until "Mr.T" posted samples last week, I hadn't realized the quality of your photography

1/31/98 - Your CD's were great! That prompted me to subscribe.

1/10/98 - Just a note to say Thank You (I've done this many times, but wish to again) for all your hard work, time, trouble, and energy to bring Archives BBS to the Web....in my opinion, THE FINEST (bar none) of ALL the bondage-related sites I have seen! Also, your updates, advice, tips on software, operations, techniques for computer improvement, etc. are terrific.

12/31/97 - I have often seen excerpts of your work and have marvelled at the quality of the photos. You seem to combine beautiful models, high quality photography and a really classy feel. Great stuff! A few days ago I treated myself to joining up to your archive BBS; I had not realised the sheer quantity of stuff you have put together. It rivals just about anything else on the Net AND you have your own high quality material.

I am particularly impressed with one of your latest models - Dawn - who seems to bring youth, beauty and sheer stunning visual appeal to the photos in sets bb10 and bb11. Do, please, if you have the chance, produce more material with her. If you could get her to smile now and again it would be even better! I've noticed that the shots of her mouth without "adornment" are not as interesting; I'm sure a smile would be good. BTW, in one or two shots she really reminds me of Rebecca Demornay - one of my favourite actresses!

On a related subject, do you have any color photos of Dana? She is a really classy dame - in fact she was in the first shots I ever saw of yours and I was immediately struck by her elegance. She looks like a real slip of a girl - not like those milk and corn-fed Texas girls I've seen in Dallas and Fort Worth!

12/31/97 Just a short note to wish you good fortune for '98. The site keeps getting better and better. Still wish for more of your stories, but there >are< only so many hours in the day. Keep up the good work!

12/22/97 - Your site is the only site that I am going to renew next year. All those other rip-off outfits can look elsewhere for their money, because I am not going to support them. Unless you can reccomend any other sites that have the same quality and versitility as yours.

12/21/97 - First off, I want to compliment you on your style, its fantastic. You can pull off the un gagged woman and still make it work for bondage. Thanks for doing more of Drew. She is my favorite model of any company ( well neck and neck with Francesca Le of Devonshire <G>). I enjoyed all of the recent work with her and even downloaded the non bondage ones, which is unique for me, since I don't usually collect such images. I hope there are more of the railroaded photos coming, that was a great set and I loved the gown series and farmgirl series and I am a fan of nipple clips. I also hope that these, espcially railroaded, are in AVI format as well or video. Please use her in your next video, especially if you are going to do dialogue and/or plot.

12/15/97 - Long time no write...mailing list seems to answer most questions I might have. Just want to tell you that the constant improvement in your endeavors has not gone unnoticed. New girls terrific, "old girls", still lovely as ever (I wonder what Michelle looks like today?). The quality of the photography is equalled only by Harper's, well worth the extra bytes.
