Do you want to become a Lurid Girl? It's quick and easy!

Naturally, we expect you to fit in with the general LURID GIRLS ethos: we like fetish, rubber, PVC, burlesque, retro glam, tattoos, piercings, body art, rockabilly, punk, goth, metal, industrial, electronica, horror movies, cult films, sleaze, trash and retro kitsch. We think you should too.

To join up, just email us at least six and no more than twelve suitably sexy and salacious photos of yourself in JPEG format. Once you've been accepted, you can add to or change your photos at any time.

We also need your your modelling name and a release statement (i.e. "I give Lurid Films permission to use these images on LURID GIRLS" or something similar - or you can download a PDF release form here). We also need you to confirm that you are over 18 years old. If your images are sexually explicit (involving penetration or any sort), we may also need proof of age.

We'd also like to know a bit about you! If you check out any of our gallery pages, you'll see a list of questions we'd like you to answer.

We'll also add details of your contact email / myspace (or similar) page / website if you wish us to. If you want to be contactable but don't want to give out your details, we'll happily forward emails to you. Just let us know your requirements. We will also use your site banner if you have one.

It's our plan to expand these galleries into social network style pages eventually, giving you direct control over them, with messaging, mail and chat facilities.

Please ensure that you have permission to use the photos you send us, and let us know if photographers need to be credited.

Those of you wanting to send video clips should contact us first with details of length, format etc.

We have no restrictions on content, other than the obvious legal ones: all models must be consenting adults over 18. Images showing 'extreme sexual violence' (even if clearly staged) will regretfully be rejected. No animals or corpses please.

If you want to write music, movie or event reviews, we'd love to hear from you. And artists / cartoonists should feel free to send their work too - as with photos, send six to twelve JPEG images.

Everyone featured on LURID GIRLS will receive free goodies from our (forthcoming) merchandise, free membership to all Lurid / Harder Faster sites, percentage points payments and the chance to work with us on our video productions.
