great idea, but some disadvantages:
1) you can embed text within the JPEG header, it takes up a little bit more disk space to the image. problem is that it can be automatically stripped out by resizing programs.
2) you can embed info within the EXIF header, but again, some programs can just wipe out that info
3) having content producers process their images with any kind of marking is a huge undertaking
4) having to pay for digital watermaking like digimarc or baytsp is not going to happen with most content producers
5) some clients may not want visible watermarks on the image.
My technology is based on image analysis, so doesn't require any pre-marking or any watermarking and is free for all content producers to participate.
One of my disadvantages is aggregating content producers as well as keeping up with updates, but it's not a problem as content providers are starting to find me as I begin my marketing campaign.
Content producers should use as many viable/practical ways to document their 2257 records, especially from a record keeping standpoint of having the right info on the models sitting in a filing cabinet at your offices.
Embedding a text pointer back to the content producer in the JPEG header is a great idea and if a content producer will take the time to do it, it could help to assist the webmasters with their secondary record keeping responsibilities.
Webmasters can help by pointing their content producers to my 2257lookup.com service. The more content producers that are in the database, the better the service that I can provide on matching images
