Also voyeur is illegal in my state now. Anything deemed a violation of their privacy now has legal consequences. :shrug: So much for the constitution....

What about Girls Gone Wild? Its basically the same thing, but trashy. From what I have heard, the guy who started that is getting sued by parents because some of the hotties were not legal over 18 hotties. So far none of those cases have won for the plaintiff.
To get the site really going, you need a "critical mass" of data to attract clicks and more people. That term, "critical mass," aside from its nuclear implications, is used by the video game console marketing people. They use it as a measure of when there are enough consoles to present a big enough installed base (and potential market) to attract 3rd party software houses to make games.
The way to do that of course is to launch the console with some already excellent and unique titles to sell enough consoles to begin with. It would be the same thing with a random babes site, you would have to have enough good material to attract enough eyeballs that will then feed off itself as people try to up one another. And as far as the law goes, paparazzi are legal in every state, and their voyeuristic tactics go far beyond anything potential users engage in for your site, hypothetically at least.
You of course would need to either review the pics yourself or have a committee or something that does that. One thing I would do with such a site is not have nudity. That seems counterintuitive to what the site is about, but the "market" for hottie viewing is so saturated with nudity and outright porn that you would never be noticed above the din in that market. You would have a site with discriminating media of the most beautiful women. Like I alluded to in my previous post, Grace Kelly comes to mind. In the old movie
Rear Window, she is absolutely stunning. I would find her dressed far and away more alluring and appealing than say, Britney Spears naked. No one tries that angle these days, someone who did would find success I think. Especially if the site was free and not-for-profit.
Sorry about the rant, but I just went off there...
