If a few hundred hotties dressed up for fun in a variety of cheerleader, nurse, french maid and several other types of uniforms catch your attention, well, then you've already found the first reason to visit the huge softcore site Only Tease.
In case you wouldn't mind seeing the same ladies cater to a long list of other clothing fetishes (with many of the individual ones offering enough content to warrant a membership even if that particular one is the only one you're interested in), you've just found several other reasons to love Only Tease.
Other highlights? A huge photo collection - and the video section is certainly not too shabby either.
The technical quality is (mostly) great, and the site has several helpful navigation features.
Need more? Okay, one more then - membership is 5-10 bucks cheaper than what most porn sites (even much smaller ones) charge these days.

Update, October 26 2009
Another high rated site I've neglected for too long, so I guess it's time for that update.
I'm happy to report that Only Tease is still very much going strong, and it doesn't look like the numbers at the top of the redesigned tour page (the member area has also received an overhaul with several improvements to layout and navigation since my last visit) are lying (the photos and video updates are displayed by month, so I admittedly couldn't be bothered to verify by doing a manual count on numerous pages), the total number of videos on the site has more than doubled - to well over 1,600 - over those two and a half years since my last visit, and the number of photos has passed 800,000 (with typically around 70-130 per set).
The update pace has gone up as well, and you now get usually three or four new photosets every day plus 11 or 12 new videos a month.
Nothing has changed about the nature and style of the content at Only Tease, it's still the same softcore photos and videos with beautiful girls - now nearly 600 of them - in all manner of sexy outfits. Which is to say everthing is as I would expect it to be and still an exceptional and extremely plentiful treat for those of us who can manage to take an occasional break from the usual hardcore porn and appreciate this kind of very sexy softcore teasing.
Among all the beautiful amateur models you can now also find a few high profile babes (in a section called "Prestige") like Eve Angel, Angel Dark, Jana Jordan and Jana Cova, all in several photosets. That site section, which currently holds a total of 128 photosets, also features many models I've personally never heard of before, but then I'm not really up to speed on the world of softcore photography.
Finally it's worth mentioning video and photo quality. The last few months a 720p HD, 8000+ kbit version has been available for most new videos, and going back a little further it looks like the bitrate on the 640x480 videos had received a slight boost compared to the original 1500 kbit a couple of years ago.
In January 2008 a new "ultra large size" was made available for photosets, 3000x2000 pixels vs the old but still large 2048x1365.
2nd look, February 2 2007:
Since I'm reviewing two solo girl sites from the Only Tease people today - Only Melanie and Only Carla - I figured I might as well take the opportunity to update this review.
As you would probably expect with a site that was already great in nearly all aspects (if perhaps a bit low on "action", given its strictly softcore, very softcore content), the only things that have really changed at Only Tease is the number of photosets, videos and hot British babes - but that's certainly not half bad.
The total number of photosets at Only Tease is up from around 2,500 to more than 3,800 since my last visit around eight monhts ago, and the video collection has grown from 528 to 722 videos (despite the more modest impression given by the "over 500 downloadable videos" text on the tour page, so I guess there is in fact a chance that the number of photosets I mentioned above could be significantly underestimated as well) and the number of models has grown from roughly 200 to 250.
I guess I could go on about what you can expect from the many photosets and videos, but I think I've already made the mistake of repeating myself (a lot) more than needed in some of the other review updates I've done before, when I could just have pointed you to all the answers in the original review text below. So that's what I'm gonna do with Only Tease.
It's all right down there.
Below.
... But before you start reading all that, I should probably finish this up as I usually do, with a summary of score changes. None. The only really relavant scoring category would be quantity, but considering how very large the content collection at Only Tease was already eight months ago, said score is already maxed out.
You could argue for quality as well, where there's still room for one point, but given the growing number of sites with 640x480 videos, I think I'm on the verge of slightly increasing my requirements for a 20/20 score in that category - at least requiring a 2000 kbit bitrate to go with the 640x480 resolution (or a higher resolution and a minimum of 1500 kbit).
Which is not to say that the videos at Only Tease don't still look great of course, just not quite cutting edge.
Oh, one last thing - the monthly membership price has gone up by $5, but $24.95 for nearly half a million great looking photos and more than 700 videos is probably still a pretty good deal no matter how you look at it. They have also added several additional discounted multi-month membership options, so if you plan on staying a while it's possible to get as low as $16.65 a month with the six month membership.
I guess this second look ended up a bit longer than planned afterall. Just like all the others.
Original review:
Wow! That's the word the most immediately sprung to mind after my first 10-15 minutes in the member sections of Only Tease. "Wow" not only as a response to how large and well designed the site is, or to how hot and varied the content is, but just as much in surprise to just how much this softcore - often very softcore - porn (if you can even use that word about a lot of the content here) managed to turn me on.
I mean, I count rough anal sex, extreme insertions and lesbian fisting among my own personal favourites, so I guess you can imagine that I'm just a tad puzzled by the effect a bunch of beautiful girls parading around in maid's uniforms, college uniforms, nurse uniforms, secretary outfits, evening dresses, stockings, lingerie and a whole bunch of other sexy clothing items - sometimes not even loosing the panties, or even the top for that matter, and only rarely moving from strict teasing to actual masturbation or the occasional softcore lesbian intimacy.
Alright, I guess when you line it up like that it's not really all that much of a surprise afterall. This site is all about the clothing fetishes - and of course the hotties that wear (and take off) said clothing.
If the uniforms, the lingerie, the dresses, the pantyhose, the hotpants, the jeans etc. were replaced with just your average pretty non-descript photosets and videos (however pretty the girls may be), I very much doubt I would feel more than ever so slightly excited.
But excited is exactly how I feel about Only Tease - and with a reported 340,000+ exclusive photos in more than 2500 sets (nope, I didn't count them all to verify, but I'll take them on their word) and more than 500 videos (also all exclusive to Only Tease), there's a good chance I might end up so excited I should probably start worrying about my blood pressure.
Oh, and as if they site wasn't huge already, there appears to be two daily updates - either two photosets or a photoset and a video.
I've already more or less covered what you can expect from the content at Only Tease, but also worth mentioning (and pretty important for a site of this size) is the alphabetized model directory (there are roughly 200 girls at the moment), 42 photo/video categories - a few of them referring to hair color and breast size, but the vast majority of them to various clothing items,
everything from socks, shorts and several types of panties over boots, gloves and glasses to six or seven types of uniforms.
Most of the photosets and videos feature one girl, but if you like a bit of hot and very teasing girl/girl fun (and who doesn't) there are currently 94 videos and photosets listed in this category as well.
No guy/girl action at all - which is definately the way I prefer a site of this type, but your milage may vary of course.
Now that we've established that Only Tease is certainly not lacking in neither size, variety or entertainment value, what about the technical quality?
Let's start with the photos, as they do make up for a very large part of the site afterall.
Photosets are available in two different resolutions (the older ones, the site has been online since 2002, only in one though) - the "small" one a pretty good roughly 1000 pixels, and the other one a huge 2048 pixels.
I was slightly disappointed with the latter though, as they sometimes seem to be compressed a bit too hard, loosing some of the sharpness and detail in the process.
The 2048 pixel photos are in some cases less than 200 kb in size - compare that to the typically 500-800 kb of the same resolution photos at Eve Angel and Mya Diamond's sites, and you do miss out on that neat, sharp view of every (im)perfection or drop of sweet or moisture on the skin.
Of course I can't rule out that camera, lighting etc. used at Only Tease may not be of quite the same quality.
Anyway, that's nit picking, and without looking for minor flaws like that, the photo content at Only Tease certainly doesn't disappoint in any way.
Aside from browsing the galleries on the site you can also download either version in a zip file. Definately a bonus for a site this heavy on hot photo content.
I can generally say similar positive things about the videos - but unfortunately only for those added after November last year. The high quality version looks great in 640x480 and a bitrate I estimate to be around 1000 kbit (those damn avi files always refuse to show the number in any media player), and there's also a (much) lower quality option available for members on slow connections.
The quality of the older videos is adequate, but it would be a bit of a stretch to call it good. The resolution here is 384x288 and the bitrate around 500 kbit.
Many sites only switched to higher qualities fairly recently though (and others don't really seem to care at all, guess how I feel about them), but I still feel that the old video collection is of such a significant size that I'll subtract one point from an otherwise perfect 20/20 quality score.
Are we done then? I think so - but I'm definately not done with Only Tease just yet, and if they kill my reviewer login once they see I've finished the review (shhh, don't tell them), I have a pretty strong feeling I'll be shelling out 20 bucks quicker than you can say "who's that hottie in the cheerleader uniform?".
This is one hell of a site - and my uniform fetish certainly hasn't diminished one bit after my visit (that's a good thing, just in case there's any doubt).
Just be aware that this is strictly softcore - even the girl/girl scenes generally come closer to a couple of girlfriends fooling around a bit rather than actual sex.
