Good Job Jenna

I think Jenna's on the right track with Seraphox's original post. Here's my thoughts.
1) I usually come up with a tease in one of two ways. The first is that I come up with a concept, then have to find the right pictures to fit it. That can take a while, but I often have several ideas in my head. For example, right now I have an idea for a tease where all you can see are the woman's eyes up very close, and I've yet to find the pictures for it. I think it would be amazing with the right pictures, so I'm going to wait until the right ones come my way or I won't do it at all. So if you have a cool idea for a tease, don't rush it. Maybe do a different tease while you work on the extra special one.
2) The second way is seeing pictures of a girl I like and having the idea form around her. For Entrapment, I just came across the pics and knew I had to do a tease with them. It actually only took me a little over an hour because I felt inspired.
3) Personality. There are singers with amazing voices and there are singers with okay voices who are passionate. And occasionally you'll come across an amazing vocalist who has passion and the voice. But it's rare. Personally, I'll take passion over an amazing voice. For example, Christina Aguilera has the pipes, but she bores me. No passion. Someone like Sarah McLachlan has a very good voice, but it's more about what she does with it. You know?
For me, it's the same thing with pictures. There are lots of pretty girls on the web, but I look for ones with personality. If a girl is sticking out her tongue or rolling her eyes or laughing or glaring, she just seems more real to me. Give me a cute girl with personality over a perfect plastic model any day.
4) Editing the pics. I guess milovana's software adjusts the size of the pictures you upload so that they can be viewed on the screen without scrolling. Call me dense, but it took me a while to figure out why some of my pics were coming out bigger and some smaller. So on my last several teases I've trimmed the pics I'm using to a size that fits on the page. That way the pic that shows up is as large as possible.
5) Here's some practical tips for tease management. When I find a series of pictures I like, I download them into a folder on my computer. Next, I trim them using Paint and save them under a slightly different name (e.g. girl01 would become agirl01). Then, when I'm ready to build the tease, I open the folder in filmstrip mode (as opposed to list or thumbnails). I make any adjustments to the order I want the pics to go in by clicking and dragging them. And then I stay on whichever pic I'm working on in the tease, so that I can check back and look at the expression on her face or even just to make sure I'm uploading the right one.
6) Check your work! Hopefully we're all adults here and either know how to spell or can at least spellcheck. Once you're done, run through your tease before you post it. Read through and find any grammatical or spelling errors and fix them. Nothing pulls me out of a tease more than typos. And as you're running through it, you can also make a mental note of any items used in the tease, so you can post proper tags.
7) I think it should be understood that there are different kinds of webteases. Some are going to have lots of instructions that make them more interactive with the user, and some are going to basically be stories with matching pictures. Some remind you that you're just sitting in front of a computer, while others infer that you're in a fantasyland of some kind. And, of course, there are so many different fetishes to choose from. So do what you like. Dabble. Try experimental ways of doing them. Or just tell a simple story. Whatever floats your boat.
8) I get most of my images at http://www.richards-realm.com/thumbnails. They're broken down into categories. I've also found Google's advanced image search to be very helpful when I want to find just the right series of pics. Don't forget to click the 'no filtering' button.
9) Writing a tease can be extremely stimulating! Some of my teases take forever because I just can't deny myself long enough to get it done. It's also a great way to tease and deny yourself. Example 1: I bought a CB2000 a couple of months ago, just to play with. Putting together a tease while in a chastity belt is crazy fun. Example 2: I got home from work and had to pee really bad, but I told myself that I had to hold it until I did a whole tease. It took me two hours, and I loved every minute of it!
10) Don't get discouraged! My first four teases were rated 2.9, 3.2, 3.7 and 3.3. It took me a while to get my ratings up. But I had a lot of fun trying! And now that I have more experience, I write some teases for the ratings, and some just because I want to do them.
