RET's PET PEEVES

RHOG is not a dating service. Don't email asking for the email address of photographers and models that you see here. WE DON'T GIVE THEM OUT except for links in the LIBRARY area.

It is also NOT a place for you to try and set up shop to privately sell or swap your material.

  I do not want you sending in some lovely pictures and then later tell me that you would like me to add your email address to the pictures or put any notes on the web pages like "email us for more private or custom pictures"   or  "email us to swap files privately".

This excludes the LIBRARY section where I will provide a link to an Asphyx related web page or educational page.

 Don't send in SOMEONE ELSES PICTURES. Don't grab pictures that belong to someone else, from another site, and send them in to be posted here. We only post original works from the authors, models, or a designated representative thereof.

If you are already displayed on another site or many other sites then it is not original material.

If you are already showing your material on another site or several other sites we will be happy to provide a link in the LIBRARY area to help you out. Don't send in material saying that it is original and try to use RHOG to promote your other areas.

 The main theme of the material must be Asphyx as in Hanging and Choking. The term Asphyx has been diminished over the years to include drowning and shooting and blood and guts. That is not what true Asphyx is and we don't show that sort of stuff here. Sex Asphyx in the form of Hanging and choking is acceptable.

A noose is not a necklace.

We display pictures and clips of Asphyx. Pictures of your girl with a rope dangling around her neck while she sucks on you is not asphyxia. We will show a few of those pics for you but they should not be the main course.

Pics and clips prefered. We mostly display pictures and movie clips but we also accept POSER and other CGI rendered pictures and animations.

We don't have a large audience for STORIES but if you have something you know is good we could post one or two.

We no longer accept PHOTO MANIPULATIONS.

The purpose of RHOG is to show safe Asphyx breath control play.
   You can hang her until she passes out as long as you show your safety apparatus is going to keep her from dying.

ASPHYX IS FOR LOVERS. NEVER PLAY ALONE !

  We like light bondage. Nothing like spikes through the nipples and razor cuts and tits bound so tight they are about to pop.
 Keep in mind that in some states, if a woman's hands are bound and she is penetrated it is considered rape. Even if it is consensual bondage sex. There are lots of places on the web where you can look up what is legal and what is not. You can also find places for tips about how to put a girls hands in loops instead of tying the hands which makes it perfectly legal.
Stuff like that.

ENOUGH SAID.

On to the lighter stuff.

TIPS FOR TAKING ASPHYX PICTURES.

These are not requirments for submitting material.

Just things that folks like and don't like to see.

If you have already taken your pictures then you might just use this as a guide to know if our audience is going to like the stuff you send in.

 
When taking Asphyx style pictures there are two thing to keep in mind.

We want to see the rope.
We want to see the neck.

Here are some basics
[*Text Quoted from a post by humblestud]

*Turn off the damned TV/radio. You may find it arousing to have
Spongebob giggling in the background, but chances are you've tuned him
out. Unfortunately, it's harder to do when listening to a recording,
as all the 3D cues are gone and the audio is flat. Really, why were
you having sex with the TV on in the first place?

*Take your pants off. Unless you are getting a quick blow job in a
Home Depot parking lot, let's see some skin. The last time I had sex
with my clothes on the gear shift was in the way. I see this in many
"professional" vids. I'm not sure if they are in a hurry, or just
figure that everybody has done it the right way and now different is
cool. Even if you are an ugly fat guy, let the girl get at you. Girls
should preferably be undressed as well, although some clothing is
sometimes OK.

*Take the phone OFF the hook. This mostly comes from "professional"
vids again. I guess they can't afford to miss a phone call. Perhaps if
they took a bit more care and time, they could make more money with
their vid. I can't count the number of times a phone rings in one of
these vids.

*If possible, get a cameraman. If not, try to get at least a good
angle for your tripod or camera stand. BTW, an extreme closeup is NOT
the best shot possible. I prefer to see all the action, not just pubic
hair follicles.

*Pay some attention to lighting. Don't get between the light and the
camera, and make sure plenty of lights are on. You are showing off,
right? Also, it helps if you know more about your camera than how to
turn it on. Some of those settings can make the difference between a
good scene and a great scene.

*Good editing. Leaving out the boring stuff. Don't cut too much, though.

5. We love Sexual Asphyx. Use your imagination while staying within legal limits. Sex during breath control is one of our main interests. If you can combine sex and asphyx in the same movie or picture then you are right on topic and your pictures will reach fame and glory.

On the same note keep in mind that RHOG is a sex Asphyx site and not a bondage Asphyx or blowjob site.
   That means that if you send in 30 photos of your chick kneeling on the floor giving you a blowjob and she just happens to have a noose or rope hanging loosely around her neck then I am only going to use 1 or 2 of those photos. Those pictures are just blowjob pictures, not sex Asphyx. 

Now if you have a close up picture of your dick in her mouth and there is a rope around her neck choking her so tight that it is obvious that this is a choke picture and not just a blowjob picture, , we'll use all of those.

Here you can see that the rope is so tight that it disappears under her flesh and her face is starting to turn red. This is a pretty good sex asphyx shot.

6. ANONYMOUS SUBJECTS: Lots of girls and guys want to show their Asphyx pictures but do not want to be easily identified. So you would like to photoshop a black ugly box over her eyes and nose.
  Something to keep in mind. In most cases the only people that you are "blocking" her from is people who don't or would not know her if they fell over her. If someone happens to see these pictures and they are familiar or accented with her then that box over the eyes is not going to do a thing for you. They will recognize her or you anyway.
  The box or mask or sunglasses over the eyes will only serve useful in a court of law for a technicality issue.
If you are looking for security and complete anonymity then don't post pictures of you and her. Even if you put a paper bag over her head, there is some guy out there who is admires her and is going to recognize her butt or shape.
So if you don't mind taking a chance that Aunt Milly is going to spot her granddaughter when Uncle Harry drifts across some porn site who has ripped the pictures off of RHOG and posted them on their own site, then by all means, send them in.
  While we hate seeing some gorgeous female with a Lone Ranger mask covering her face up, we understand the need that some folk have for doing it and will accept those pictures as long as they are done tastefully.

CAMERA ANGLES:

  If you are shooting a hanging photo or movie, and her feet are not going to leave the floor and she is not standing on anything then we don't need a distance shot where you are going to loose all of that nice definition in her nude torso and have to squint to see the rope around her neck. We also don't care what the rope is tied to up above.
  Nude hangings should be shot from 1 foot above the head, down to either the stomach or to the hips. We want to see your girls facial expressions and the sweat pouring off of her. Since she is not standing on anything that would let our imaginations decide that she might be stepping off then we don't need to see any excess information.

This classic shot of Noemi shows a good asphyx picture. The resolution might be terrible but all of the elements are there. Good lighting, no shadows, only enough of the subject shown to get the point across.

  The camera should always be positioned slightly below and to either side of her face. Head-on shots always leave the chin covering the rope or hands around the front of the neck so you have to be below the chin line for good shots.
The best noose shots are taken between 45-90 degrees of the subject.

HAIR:

  One of the hardest parts of shooting a good Asphyx shot is a girl with long hair. It always gets in the way of the neck or the rope view. There's nothing worse then a pic of a hot babe dangling from the ceiling than having her long locks covering her neck and shoulders and even her tits. All you see is a girl in the air with a rope coming out of the top of her head of hair.
  When doing a hanging shot be sure to push the hair to the opposite side of the camera so that the entire back of the neck and the rope around the neck are clearly shown. Hairbands are fine as long as she is not in pig tails or she will look like the flying nun.
Choke shots with her laying down should also have the hair tucked under to one side so the curve of the hands around her neck can be seen.
  

Garrote shots should have the hair pulled up or behind the rope so the rope can assist in pulling the hair away from the neck.

Abby has long hair but for this shot you see that her hair is up and out of camera. The rope and neck are clearly seen.

BACKGROUNDs:

   Home pictures and movies should show the home. Cropping the picture down to a 1x5 in picture just to cut out identifying objects in the background makes the picture look like it came out of an arcade photobooth.
Take the movie or pictures in a guest room or backyard or foyer. Remove any unique objects that might identify your surroundings .

This picture could have been taken a little closer to Tracy to show more of this lovely woman but as an opening shot it does the job. As far as our girl remaining anonymous, that is out of the question. Even though her face is masked, anyone that knows her would recognize the living room.

  FOR HANGING: If you want to hang a curtain up then cover only part of the room but leave some corner area to show depth. Don't use black colors or multi colored linen. This puts false shadows on the subject and hides the outline of the rope above her head and ruins the view of the distance of her feet from the floor.
  FOR CHOKING: DO use multi colored linen, as flesh colored hands and neck against a pure white background tend to make the pictures bleed when published in .JPG format and everything looks a blur or the shadows ruin the outlines.

FORMATS:

I begin to clean out my mailboxs around 5:PM E.S.T. or zone-5 Monday through Friday.
I clean them out regularly on the Weekends.

Please email your pictures uncompressed. Try not to use .JPG format unless it is set to Maximum.
I will be adding Logos and Signatures to the pictures and if they arrive already compressed then
after I do your copyright info and such, the pictures look terrible.
Large pictures are fine. Let me resize them here to make them fit the pages. If I have to enlarge a picture it looses quality.
If you crop your images before sending them just leave me enough border area for signatures, logos and shading.

Movies are a real crowd pleaser. If you send a movie try to make it either AVI (preferred), MPG1 standard or last WMV large.
I can do lots with AVI files but sometimes they are pretty large.

How do we get this stuff to us?

If you have a large files and you have a RAPIDSHARE account then you can post them there for us to download. (as long as this is our exclusive link and not a publicly hosted file (or your personal privately hosted files)
If you don't have a RAPIDSHARE account then let me know the file size and format and we will work out how you can get it to me.

Address all email that includes picture or movie attachments and put an identifying subject line on the mail. Something like "RET, HERE ARE THE PICTURES OF ?????????". So I wont mix them up with the other email that I get.

NUDITY:

  That is up to her to decide. Naturally all the guys would like to see tits and ass most of the time but that does not always make for a good shot. Sometimes a little bit of clothing in just the right places can make a shot even better than nude. But, be careful with shirts and blouses. If the color is too high and blocks the outline of the rope or hands then it is just a bad as too much hair hanging down and blocking what we all want to see.
  A skimpy bra and panties can be just as provocative as her being buck naked.
If she does not want to be naked but still be hot she can always be naked on the bed and have the sheets cover the vital parts.

CELLULITE:

This is for the girls.

  Sometimes I hear that old line "I can't do naked. I'm too FAT". Well I am here to tell you that we don't care !!
 The girls that say that they are too fat to do naked are the ones who have been caught up in the Capitalistic marketing and profit brainwashing of stereotyping. All Bull Shit.
  Ok, maybe you think you look too fat to pose in a string bikini. Well then. Don't.
Believe me, if you are a fatty and you try to cover it up with a basket of cloths for an Asphyx photo then Yep, we are going to key right in on it an agree that you are a fatty. But, If you are a fatty and standing there buck ass naked with a noose around your neck struggling to stay conscious, we are not going to take a second look at your bulges.
  Those people who are coming to RHOG to see Asphyx pictures and movies have all seen the Barbie Doll figure on the 40EE blonde faking her attempt to look like she is really struggling with the rope around her neck. And we all realize that this is a high priced silicon fashion model just being used to sell subscriptions to web sites. We would rather see the girl next door who is a real live girl than the fantasy model.

Feet:

   As in the above section about camera angles lets talk about feet for a minute.
How many times have you started watching a hanging or choking video and start to see some good neck action going on and then for some reason the camera pans down to kicking feet. The camera stays on the feet for too long of a time and you are yelling at the screen for the camera to get you back up to the head, where the action is going on.
What is this fascination that cameramen have with feet? This is also sometimes seen in pictures. Feet. Just feet. 
 I could understand if they want to insert a short clip of feet action during the scene but not while loosing all the action that is going on up above.
  You can also spot those fake hanging shots where they first show the upper torso then break down to the feet to try to make it appear that the girl is hanging.You know that they cut the shot hand have her hands holding a bar above her head. They are not fooling anybody.

  This picture could be of just about anything. We would like to assume that she is in a noose but we don't see it so the picture is just a waste of time and space. Unless you have a foot fetish.

If the feet are not standing on something or they are not off the ground then don't pull the camera back to show feet. We are not interested in feet. Get in close and show the top half of the model. That is where the action is.

In this shot the feet are about to step off of the bucket. But in this shot we see a neck and noose. So here, showing the feet is important.

  Tongues:

       There are very few rare times when the tongue pops out of the mouth. It does happen but not on a regular basis and usually only in the most extreme conditions or when a rope slips up too high under the chin.

  Over the years it has become an unwritten guideline that when an actress ends a scene and appears to be dead or in extreme distress, she can let everyone know that she is still acting by sticking her tongue out, usually in some really awkward bizarre fashion. Sometimes she will even throw some drull out there. Nasty.
  But some companies insist on this in order to keep the censors off of their backs.

  In most real asphyx shots you will never see a girl sticking her tongue out at you. Besides making her face look silly, she probably is gasping for air and needs to keep her tongue out of the way to try and breath. In other cases if the tongue was out and the rope slipped up under the chin and closed the mouth the tongue would be bitten if not chopped off.

   For true amateur asphyx shots we don't want to see tongues, sloppy drull or fake blood coming out of the mouth. Most of us don't care for real blood either.

  So unless this happens to occur naturally for one reason or another, Hold your Tongue.
