There hasn't been much revealed about the website, but what is known about TypeF is that it will be a beauty portal that will be customizable to the user, meaning that each user's experience will be different. These sentiments are in line with Banks' ongoing goal of expanding the definitions of beauty. This also isn't the first time that Banks has taken to the web to further expand her brand. In 2009, Banks launched an online fashion magazine,
Tyra: Beauty Inside and Out. By the look of things, it seems that the magazine will be phased into TypeF completely.

@ Sus..Listen you miserable cow. I have a right to my opinion. If you don't like it that is your problem. Blow it out of your fat funky azz. You apparently have some serious issues. Who the hell come to BV and tell someone else how they are suppose to feel about a celebrity? You need a life heffa. Some of you people here at BV throw the word "hate" around much too often. I think when people use that word so often it's
because "hate is a big part of their personality.
If you don't like what I have say please keep it to yourself because I don't need some old cow like you telling me how to feel or how to think, biootch.

Demand Media pays slave wages like $10 or $15 per story. The industry standard is between 50 cents and a $1 a word. Shame on Tyra! That's bad business and a sign that this is amateur hour level product.

Sus,sorry to break it to you, but I'm speaking the truth (and don't have to use profanity either!).
Demand Media is one step above writing for free. They do not pay a professional wage and it is far from the industry standard.
I like Tyra and wish her well but I refuse to applaud when she is not paying fair wages.
Do you work for free or below your industry's standard? Maybe you like to work for nothing, but those of us who are actual professionals in the industry (and not broke, thank you), do not like to be asked to work for nothing.
