You are correct... even putting a star, a dot, or blurred out on the "nasty" parts will still trigger 2257 requirements.

In talking with TGP that had thumbs, we explored the idea of just cropping to the head, so there was no action going on, and just alt tags or js to put in the nasty text.

One webmaster told me that it would still require 2257.. i didn't get into a discussion over that issue, since that would seem to be like "mind policing".... you can't see anything nasty, but if you think something is nasty under the crop, then it's nasty?


Sponsor's who have tours built for them by designers that use sexually explicit images, will need to have their documentation in place. This should not be difficult for sponsors, since they should have licensed the images (and therefore received 2257 docs) and hand the images to the designer, who returns back a tour.

If you purchase turnkey tours from designers, be sure you have the license to use those images from the content producer, otherwise you could get busted for copyright infringement (and this does happen).
