1997 was a strange year. Monica Lewinsky became the world's most famous cocksucker, and her blue dress became the most valuable article of clothing ever to sport a gigantic cum stain. Wall Street was reeling from Black Monday, the Internet was becoming THE indispensible tool for entrepreneurs and porn surfers alike, and a little site named The Amateur Index was born.

At the time, there were only a handful of amateur girls posting nude pictures on the Web, and we had to spend countless hours scouring newsgroups with our pants around our ankles to find them. Now, there are umpteen millions of hot amateur girls willing to get naked for the asking. Progress is indeed a wonderful thing.

The braintrust of perverts behind Amateur Index practically invented the amateur genre, through our love (lust?) for the "girl next door". The majority of online porn at the time focused solely on scanned, airbrushed photos of porn stars with ridiculously massive surgically altered hooters, and we decided it was time to give the girl next door her own forum for exhibition.

10 years later, The Amateur Index is still going strong, thanks to our loyal base of surfers (that's you!), and we wanted to say thanks. To that end, we've created these special galleries to commemorate our decade of existence on the Internet. We look forward to bringing you another 10 years of sexy amateurs. Thanks again, and enjoy the galleries!
