Why these models are so special:BelleModels is not a free-for-all model site. Unlike most other internet contests, they were not selected by public votes only. I hand-picked these models based on a discrete system consisting of a variety of factors, including:
- Looks
I am looking for models who are glamourous-stylish or classy-smart, albeit sexy rather than natural-looks, the-girl-next-door or overtly-raunchy. - Personality
I am looking for models who are a joy to work with (friendly, responsive, communicate clearly and effectively, confident, comfortable with herself and what she is doing). My opinion of her personality may change for the better or the worse, from 1 contest to the next, as I get to know her better. I judge her application form, emails and feedback from the public. I do not judge her age, race, sexual orientation or background. - Intelligence
I deliberately made the application process complicated. - Seriousness and "Guts"
I designed the contest in such a way that it is very difficult for a model to win first time; most models have to enter the contest a few times before they will manage to win, if ever. - Qualifications
- Experience
- Public support
Although I do not penalize models who vote for themselves, the voting system is designed so that it is very difficult for a model to vote herself to winning.
They tend to be experienced, semi-professional models in their late 20s. They are the type of models whom you can reliably contact via the internet for internet and other types of serious model jobs. Models you can bet your money on. Their identities are verified. If you are a subscriber and you have a problem with any of these models, contact HeinRich@BelleModels.biz immediately. ... I am looking for a handful of diamonds, not a heap of gravel ...The following models have been cancelled because:
Sarah_US_Easton did not supply us with proof of her identity and age or a model release form,
Michelle_US_Biddeford did not respond to our emails.
:-((((

Tips how to do better in the Contest.
What is new.
- Your prize will be doubled
if you are the winner or any of the 5 runner-ups and you have entered at least 3 topless photos. - More job listings
have been added for the United States of America that are updated daily automatically. Some you have to pay to read, the rest are free. - Changes to the voting system.
Background:
I make money from advertising on my website. I need as much traffic as possible.
In the past, votes were calculated as the average per day so that models who entered later are on equal foot with models who entered early. The problem is that a model who enters just for the last week, can easily get more votes per day than a model who entered much earlier. Although I don't mind if models vote for themselves, I don't want a few persons to bomb the votes.
To prevent a case where an old hag from the jungle asked all her grantchildren to vote for her, I have to ensure that the vote_count won't easily be much more than the points I gave the model for looks, photography, talent, etc.
New voting system:
An accummulative system that favours models who enters earlier; it will bring more traffic to my site.- any person may only vote 1x per day
- votes count only 1 point (3 points from members)
- 1 point for every unique voter
- the system will track IP numbers (not emails, names or surnames) which are difficult to fake.
E.g.:
If 1 person votes 1x per day, for every day during the contest: 84 votes + 1 persons = 85 vote_count
If 84 persons vote 1x only during the contest: 84 votes + 84 persons = 168 vote_count
Votes will make-up 40% to 60% of your total points.
Also consider the last major change to the voting system.
