Gay e-zine plugin Dick! launched a redesigned version of their Website this week. The three-time nominee for the Cybersocket Web Awards now features new navigation, new photo layouts, and more.
"We've dropped the frames, tweaked the color scheme, and reconfigured the navigation," editor A.D. Fair told AVNOnline.com. "Now you can click to just about any page in the current issue from whatever page you are on. Five pages deep with one of the models and you want to jump over to the fetish column, 'Dick Kicks'? No problem. The link is right there at the top of every page. Find yourself reading a particularly dirty piece of fiction and want to re-visit last month's hot story? No problem, the link to the previous month is there page."
The site also features a team of new writers, including fetish expert Martin Quinn and “horny observationalist” Strong Lee.
"Our new writers bring a fresh voice to the site," Fair continued. "Martin Quinn takes a hands-on approach to a wide range of fetish topics from armpits to rubber to uniforms and glory holes. Strong Lee's first person observations of life and sex in New York City is great horny fun. And N. Splinter's interviews with characters like go-go boys, escorts, and other assorted characters demonstrates why New York the queer capital of the world."
DickMag.com launched in July 1998 as "the first plug-in 'zine for gay Websites" and is updated every month.
A proud sponsor of the Phoenix Forum and the Cybersocket Parties at Internext, Dick! also offers the popular video-on-demand plugin DickShow.com and the plugin image gallery NYCBoys.com.
"As a plug-in for membership sites, Dick gives members a broader range of guys to enjoy," Fair said. "That's where content like DickMag.com improves retention. One of the sites that carries DickMag is really twink-centric. I get email from the members about how much they enjoy the guys we showcase. There's a case where someone joins for a theme, and discovers more. That's a member who is going to stay around."
Webmasters can add this content to their site today, including an archive of back issues, by sending an e-mail to [email protected].
