Checking out dianapost.com

Mr. Porn Geek is back with another “blast from the past” review. This time, it’s a porn image website that first opened its virtual door more than 16 years ago. And the funny part is; it hasn’t been redesigned much since. This review will perfectly showcase what the early days of internet porn were like and how the old designs and old solutions stack against the new ones and fresh content. We dug out the old playbook and tested it as we used to in the old days, checking everything from loading times, image quality, navigation options, user experience, content diversity, etc. So, if you were around when the Internet porn was still in its infancy, this will be a particularly entertaining review. So, without further delay, let’s load up dianapost.com and see how it stacks up against the modern porn image websites.

First Impression on DianaPost

Everything from the domain name to the site design and outline of the elements perfectly illustrates what early internet porn looked like. If you would like to take into account the design of the website, you can immediately stop; there is no design. It’s an HTML webpage that has a white background and elements thrown on it. It sounds amateurish? Well, back in the day, this was the cutting edge. And you know what? Mr. Porn Geek still thinks it looks sexy.

These sites were all about the feeling and the content, not about flashy design and color schemes. Think of it this way; the more elements the website had, the longer it took to load completely which was one of the most important considerations back then. And before you start; yes, we live in the world of high-speed internet nowadays so there are no excuses for not updating the design to meet the standards today, except that it would be pointless. It would be the same as Disney changing their logo, right? So, in the design department; the score is quite high, not because it’s good, but because it’s terribly outdated, it’s actually remarkable!

Navigation and Ease of Use

Well, quite a lot has changed in this segment over the last 16+ years and some of the new and standard features modern websites implemented haven’t found their way to dianapost.com. It’s neither here nor there in terms of justifying this and rationalizing it by “retaining the same feel it had 16 years ago” argument. While we would like to see some of these modern filtering options, they are not essential for a porn image site where mostly amateurish content is posted.

But there is one clear distinction dianapost.com holds an advantage over modern porn websites. It’s upfront and honest about the content origin and location. Yeah, the thing Mr. Porn Geek complains all the time; not warning users when they are getting redirected to other platforms, Dianapost.com had it sorted out 16 years ago. And guess what, the solution still works. And it’s a simple one. Under every gallery thumb preview, there are two pieces of information; how many images are in that gallery and where it is located. And when you click on it, you are not unpleasantly surprised by the redirect. Way to go Dianapost.com, you are sixteen years and counting ahead of the competition!

Content Quality On DianaPost

This is the segment that may be considered as subjective. Yes, we all know good porn when we see it, but there are levels and layers to this racket. While we may like the mostly amateurish approach dianapost you may not like as much. Whatever your stance on the type of content genre and category is, one thing is for sure; if you browse for long enough, you will find something to jerk off to on dianapost And that’s a Mr. Porn Geek’s guarantee.

Yes, the design is outdated, and yes the user interface looks like it’s made in 2001 (because it probably is), but porn images are fresh. Well, most of them anyways. But we have to be realistic here and admit, even though we didn’t really want to, that the content could be organized better and it could be a bit more diverse. Modern porn image websites hold the advantage here. But not a big one, and definitely not a decisive one. In fact, we feel like it’s more of preferential than an actual thing.

User Experience On DianaPost

This is the segment where it all comes down to the subjective feeling. While we had a blast browsing through the content on dianapost.com, some of our younger team members were not as impressed and were quite baffled by our fascination. But Mr. Porn Geek has always strived to be impartial and the fact of the matter here is; it’s decent. Seeing as modern websites suffer from originality and tend to deceive their visitors by redirecting them to the ad-riddled sites, trying to profit from their visitors, dianapost.com doesn’t look so bad. And don’t get us wrong, they do it as well, but at least, they are upfront about it.

Final Thoughts on DianaPost

While it was fun to reminisce about the old days of porn, we simply cannot neglect the fact that every segment of a porn image website matters. The design is outdated, the navigational scheme is as well, content is on the level you would expect it to be for an amateur-oriented porn image website, and the user experience is decent. So, the verdict is a positive one, but not like overwhelmingly positive.

It’s a decent porn image site. But if you have learned anything from Mr. Porn Geek by now it’s this; form your own opinion regarding porn, always. And while, yes objectively, dianapost.com is an average-rated website, subjectively, this is one of the best porn image libraries out there because it stayed true to the genre. The best thing you can do is check it out and see which category of people you fall under? Is it the one that will see it just as another image porn repository, or will you see the uncut diamond as we do? Or maybe something totally different?
