    Cropping thumbs and 2257 on TGPs.

    For those who run tgps. What if all the thumbs used do not show any explicit content, all non nude thumbs or head shots. 2257 not required huh?

    well after reading the regs that is the conclusion i came to. but when i asked the same question all these gfy armchair lawyers scolded me saying "of course not, you still need the regs because the image comes from a sexually explicit image." sounds like bullshit to me, if you dont have explicit shit on your site then what would you need 2257 for?

        there is a speculation that if you use cropped image of a larger picture which has sexual explicity on it, then you need docs for the cropped image as well.
        does the thumb convey sexual explicity or not but when the feds are at the door, better to have all they want to see. by no means this is a legal advise.

          my opinion (not legal advice 'cuz I'm a dumbasss) is that when you crop an image, you are creating a "new work". The image you created and are publishing is not covered.

          It doesn't matter what the original image contains. You aren't publishing the original image.

                They are going to know when they click on the full sized image or by how loud you are yelling while they're dragging you off to prison.

                  i doubt anyone will be going to prison for a porn website...maybe fines or some shit...i guess we'll find out soon though...i'm probably just gonna make mine all text so they can't say shit.

                    Does this mean that the Lynx browser will make a comeback?

                      Alex!! Dude you are trying every way not to comply. It will be the 23rd and you'll still be looking for a way out. Comply and do not worry anymore. It will be a pain at first but once you have complied you'll sleep better at night.

                          No. Im trying to avoid having to comply. So basically using not-explicit images and text.

                          I dont want to keep hard-coded copies at my house for various reasons.
