But then again if you ask Mike Jones if having proof of age on file works with local police he will probally tell you no, because they don't care.
Thos who include releases like we used to do are asking for trouble, because you get models suing you for passing out their real names, any webmaster can see the state id and the models real name and then put 2 and 2 together and some even leave addresses and phone numbers open, this causes the model to sue your ass under the privacy act of 1974.
We attempted to include model releases with all personal information blacked out, but by the time you do this you are handing out nothing but a model release as it would be read before it was signed and filled out so whats the use in doing this?
So I would at least request a photo id blacked of the model with her birthdate and face on it, you don't need anything more then this as this is your proof of age. When it comes to proof of ownership that falls back on the one selling the content, not you.
As far as the galleries and posting 2257 info, adult xxx law people will tell you that you should seperate each adn every producer to their own page and show 2257 info at the bottom fo EVERY page on your website. Personally I use one 2257 statement at the bottom of my page with my name and address on it and then they can come see me, considering I use 98% my own content and don't buy much content to use.
As far as free sponsor content this is questionable, I mean who can say a sponsor even owns the content that they give to you to use, anyone can put a copyright graphic on photos. I would definately at least use their 2257 info on teh pages.

So, your saying that if I bought content from you I should request id and model release?
What if I dont use my own content than I should put 2257 info on EVERY gallery?
If you use %98 of your own content then whats with the other %2? You don't put any 2257 info for them?
