I created a tumblr page to share some of my best sissy photo creations. Hope you enjoy...

Wow thanks. Some of my favorite style of dresses there.

Beware if you have bandwidth limits or data caps viewing those on your mobile data plan. Some of those pix are PNG image files up to 1.5mb in size. So if you click on a lot of them, it will add up to a lot of bandwidth. They'll also take a long time to load on a slow data plan, dialup, or minimum DSL hookup.

Also most USA & Canadian ISPs throttle down your speed (sometimes 40-50% or more) once you reach a preset, but un-mentioned monthly bandwidth limit of 1-10gb on their "unlimited" plans. Although they will all deny throttling your speed, when confronted with the evidence of severe throttling, they claim the only ones reaching their limits so they have to throttle back their speeds are file sharers & torrent downloaders.

That's nonsense! You can use up to 1/6-1/4gb just by visiting the overloaded yahoo front page, yahoo news page, or Facebook. After just visiting those pages a few times a day, & a gallery like these using massive PNG image files, you've already used up your bandwidth limit for a month within a week, so are stuck with reduced, throttled speed, none-functional or skipping you-tube pages, & netflix problems the rest of the month.

Within a week of using Yahoo news, Facebook, & a few you-tube videos, without downloading, file sharing, or using any torrents, verizon throttles down my speed by at least 40% because I've aready exceeded their limits for the month. They're even sneaky about how they throttle you so you don't know it. They'll give you full speed a few seconds to load a page or pass an ISP speed test, but stuff that is big enough to take a minute or more to download they turn down your speed.

In another words, exactly the stuff you'd really need the speed you're paying them for, is exactly what they throttle back the speed on when you use it.

One of my favorites:

Fantastic. I love a lot of those outfits!

I just found out if you're saving these on something with limited memory like a tablet or portable device with only 4-64gb of storage, if you click on the magnify icon, many (but not all) of the larger pictures are in JPG, so even though they're much larger, the larger ones in JPG are only a fraction of the file size (1.6mb png vs 240kb jpg).

A couple more of my favorites

You say that's your "best" ones. Does that mean you still have more?

I'd love to see them. Especially the ones with the prettiest or frilliest outfits.

Yes there are many more. Those are the most polished and "believable" edits.(others I don't think are good enough to share) Often times I can't find what I am looking for(no substitute for a genuine photo) so I cobble together my favorite bits. Often times attempting to recreate an image from some of my favorite stories. I will continue to periodically upload more to the tumblr for your enjoyment.

I will also try to hit this post when there is an update. (with a thumbnail)

Thanks. I'm looking forward to it. I love your taste in dresses & other outfits. And just like with everybody, I'm more than happy to get the finished ones down to a manageable file size without shrinking or distorting the picture, so you can save or them post anywhere. I can even fix some of the cool ones if you like, if they're off a little.

Sometimes it looks better to post the same picture in a 20-60kb jpg than a 1.6mb png, tiff, or gif anyway. You can also hide a lot of sins by making an image a little smaller too. Even the famous Mary Beth images were small, or only intended to look best on a 600x900 monitor & 12-15 inch screens of the day. What made them famous was they all looked fantastic on those. Most of them reposted here had to be fixed to get them at 350 pixels or more & still look good.

With your permission, since you're on a tumblr page for the public anyway, I can post everything you got there right here in a nice low bandwidth size, but good looking good in a gallery right here if you like, to save your hard work for a long time.

The great thing about getting it posted at Betty's is that many get to save & archive the work for the future if you want many to see it, & keep it will be around a long time - even if we're gone someday. We have to save the frilliest stuff, because it's almost gone except in the Lolita fashions, which isn't quite the same thing, but is just a modern & inferior substitute for the older frillies.

Everything at Betty's created by our users is credited, & we actively pursue anybody stealing their work without permission, or do not credit the work of the creator.

Don't sell yourself short. It's a lot of time & work to do that stuff. You have some nice stuff there. If it's all free for everybody, let me repost it here where it's easy for everybody to see, save & archive with your credits.

It would be a shame to waste & lose all the old school style of stuff, pix, graphics, & stories the way it used to be. It's just not the same with the lolita/brolita stuff as the real sissy stuff.

Amen to "don't sell yourself short."

When I looked at your tumblr gallery, I kept wondering which ones were genuine and which were photoshopped.  I'm guessing that they were all photoshopped, but that's definitely NOT how it looks!

I cut my teeth on MaryBeth's images. Which is why you can see her influence in my work. I don't really need credit. Though it does amuse me to see a few images I released into the wild some years back that are popping up all over the internet. If it's important to credit the artist perhaps I should come up with a more iconic name like MaryBeth. Betty by all means feel free to edit/improve/thumbnail/archive etc. I release them into the wild for the enjoyment of others; and if others can share them or make them even better fantastic. It's a labor of love. I enjoy doing it in my free time.

By the by, since there is such interest I polished up a few more images and posted them. Enjoy! :)

Oh my! Those are so cool. Thanks!

I have several folders full of sissy pix. SissyPix1-Sissypix7, arranged by age where the newest ones go in #7. But then there are folders for just outfits & dresses, kinky sissies, & a folder called the "Best of SissyPix" which are my personal favorites. The one's I'm saving from that page are going right into the "Best of" folder. Lots of fun stuff, & pretty dresses!
