Blue Blood celebrates its 17 year anniversary by rolling out a hot new design for BlueBlood.com with extra special new $1.70 VIP trial pricing. Since 1992, Blue Blood has pioneered a genre, redefined the rock and roll beauty standard, broken down the walls between subcultures, and launched countless artists, creating venue and platform for what was previously an underrepresented kind of creative work. Blue Blood has brought its audience the innovative and quality entertainment it deserves, with insightful writing, creative photography, and beautiful people. Blue Blood is about the power and sensuality of individuality. Blue Blood is delicious luxury pop culture candy for intelligent adults.

BlueBlood.com features more than 100,000 erotic photos, showcasing more than 400 of the most exceptional individuals, shot by dozens of gifted photographers, with a huge number of coffee table books and magazine features to their credit. BlueBlood.com includes magazine quality photography of gorgeous, stylish, gothic, punk, deathrock, and otherwise offbeat women, Blue Blood VIP’s world famous signature couples sets, and erotic fiction by some of the best-loved genre writers in the world.

Forrest Black, who supervises all design and code teams for Blue Blood’s extended network and is responsible for the brand’s overall look and feel, personally created the new design for BlueBlood.com and the Blue Blood VIP members area. Forrest Black was born in San Francisco in a house with thirteen black cats and, as a baby, went from crawling to walking at parties where the Grateful Dead jammed. As an early adopter of internet technology, he worked on sites for cool icons from John Lennon and Peggy Lee to The Beastie Boys and The Dandy Warhols. He has been art directing for Blue Blood since 1992. Forrest Black says, “We’re very excited to showcase even more of the great content our members have enjoyed, plus lots of new work. And we think the new 17 year celebratory $1.70 trial offer is a great opportunity for people to check out what we have going on.”

The new Blue Blood VIP tour includes bigger pages with larger photographs. It is broken down into thematic sections where pages of free sample pictures morph with dynamically updating images. Some of the core repeating motifs in Blue Blood are couples, goth-industrial erotica, art and tattoos, science fiction fandom and costuming, fetish, and of course punk. BlueBlood.com guests can also read news about Blue Blood contributors, see what recent community posts are from the Blue Blood forums where members interact, and follow a convenient new link to the regularly-updated Blue Blood Twitter.

Dahlia Dark appeared on It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia in an episode called Paddy’s Pub: Home of the Original Kitten Mittens, which is Episode 8 of Season 5.

Forrest Black and I have shot a number of sets of Fetus de Milo in various mesh outfits in various settings. I kind of like the simplicity of this one, as I feel it really showcases her spooky elegance.

Forrest Black and I always have fun shooting Lori the Gory. With her evil ink, she looks especially dangerously sexy in this shiny slick rubber gasmask. Forrest Black picked up the gasmask when he and Szandora went shopping at Fry’s. I’m not sure if this was the usage the Fry’s people had in mind, but what better intention could they have had for consumer gasmasks?

Ah, Vegas. Forrest Black and I always enjoy Vegas and Szandora in a cozy skull sweater only made the Blue Blood suite look that much sweeter.

Voltaire makes such a cool tough beautiful domme pulling Scar 13’s black and blue hair in this GothicSluts update. I love the colors in these photos lensed by Amelia G and Forrest Black. Also, nice bondage use of duct tape.

Ivory Wraith manages to look totally badass sexy in this GothicSluts update. I love the hot water cascading down her slick fetish gear.

I would like to introduce you all to Detroit hottie Synth Doll, lensed by Larry Bradby in the thrashed basement of a hotel.

It is a glowing testament to the awesomeness of Jiz Lee and Syd Blakovich that this shoot turned out great. I hope to photograph them both again soon.

The prep for this was pretty much cursed.

Syd is a bit of a gladiator, so my initial concept was to put the two of them in armor with swords. A guy I’d done a lot of favors for in the past, and gotten armor from in the past, told me that he completely had stuff that would be perfect for the dancer body types I described to him. It turned out that the only stuff he had was some embarrassingly awful half-assed stuff he had made for Britney Spears’ back-up dancers . . . which the Britney Spears people had hated so much they stopped working with the guy. There was no way I was putting Syd or Jiz in those defective outfits, but it had been a couple years since I last got armor from this particular source and I don’t think he’d cleaned his studio in the intervening time. He was hyperventilating about something or other and so I looked through the armor myself and had an allergic reaction to the filth. It was all sort of tragic and I was going to just get a couple pieces and see if I could put something together with some mismatched stuff and then the guy all of a sudden wants a totally ridiculous price and gets really aggro and tells me he is having a very bad day. I try not to take my bad days out on other people, so that hurt my feelings, especially as I was kinda pulling stuff at this point to be polite. So I decided to skip the whole mess.

Then part of the camera broke when I took it out of the bag at the location.

All of which I would have taken as a bad omen and called it a day under many circumstances, but I was really excited to shoot Syd Blakovich and Jiz Lee and we met for coffee beforehand and I just felt like we were creatively on the same page. And, of course, there is the part where they are both ridiculously gorgeous. So forrestblack and I still did the shoot. As an artist, I could fret about this or that which is marginally different from whatever, but everything turned out really terrific. Sometimes what a shoot seems like it will be in the prep stage evolves into something different yet excellent as various factors play out and as part of the collaborative process of shooting.

This is a shot from the first set of Jiz Lee and Syd Blakovich for the Blue Blood VIP. You can check out this free Jiz Lee and Syd Blakovich gallery. More updates of them to come, plus a video interview about their Twincest art project.

In this smoking hot RubberDollies update, Yolanda takes full advantage of Szandora’s flexibility to tie her into contortionist positions with red latex bondage tape. Yolanda spanks Szandora and you can see her red handprint on Szandora’s pale pale ass. Szandora struggles helplessly when Yolanda licks the sole of her foot while she holds Szandora’s bound ankles.
