I really dug a lot of the old school performers like Anita Blond, Anita Dark, Angel Dark, Katsuni, Sibel Kekilli to name a few. I have a nice collection of these performers. For American performers I have IAFD, Data18 and a few other resources to help me tag these scenes. The Europeans are HARD! Would anyone be able to recommend a site or resources? I do use IAFD but for descriptions and all I cant find a second site to scour info.
I have a lot of stuff from that era and region, and it’s rough. IAFD is still the best source, IMHO, even though it’s search is extremely prickly about non-exact titles. I usually got through external search engines to find the IAFD entry for a movie.
There’s EGAFD, but it’s borderline unusable (you could argue the whole website UI is era-correct 
), but it can sometimes give you helpful pointers into IAFD.
DVD sites like adultdvdempire or jeedoo can be helpful for this era too, sometimes the DVD covers there are the only sources for names.
Eurobabeindex can sometimes help with performers.
I have some stuff where the only proof this ever existed is because I have it stored, there’s just no trace of some of them on the internet, at best you can find a vague hint the studio existed. Maybe it’s because it’s barely above amateur stuff.
I wish there was a stashbox instance for us retro hoarders, but I get it’s probably niche,you’d need actual movie support in stashbox, and it’s probably more of a copyright landmine, since the content directory argument falls away for stuff not available anywhere.

Euroebabeindex - never heard of that so I will check it out. I’ve used Adult Empire but I find Data18 has better info. I am down to start adding some scenes on here but you’re right about the copyright. I will keep that in mind.
