        I believe the question is...if we use pics within our design...are we responsible, or is the customer responsible?

          The more I read , the more I think yes ,
          I didn't think it would apply to me at first so I never really paid attention ,

          The way I see it basically if you have the images up , you need the papers ...

          Lucky for me I'm in canada so I'll just be changing some hosting around and everything should be cool for now

                a company hires you to design and build one or all of the following

                1 - a website, full tour and members area

                2 - a tgp

                3 - a movie gallery


                your given content

                you render content for the website and deliver the product

                you sometimes upload it

                do you as a designer fall under the laws of 2257?

                        As far as I heard yes it does apply for us designers in some cases.

                          The only way I would think it applies to me is if I have explicit samples listed on my portfolio site. Otherwise, as long as the content that I am building the site/creative with is owned by the client, I can't see where I am responsible for it at all. Now, if I am going to show that design in my portfolio online, then it's another story. That's how I would see that.

                            Thats the point of this thread I think.

                                    i can see where this can be a problem especially with our portfolios because 9 out of 10 times their is a few nude images built into the design, and it's just as accessible to anyone who wanted to view it.

                                    i'm guessing were gonna get fucked into having to keep all the documents for the content we incorporate into the designs

                                        Actually if you read the regulations closely, designers would fall into the same category as film processors etc.. we are providing a service, but we don't profit off the final product aside from the fee for our services.. The only time it would be applicable is for the content in our portfolios

The only time it would be applicable is for the content in our portfolios
                                                agreed

                                                i would even doubt that 2257 would apply to an artists portfolio because the images in the portfolio arent for sale as a tangible item, ie a book video ect - just an example of a designers skills.

                                                but thats not to say its not worth getting a professional opinion either.

                                                  I wouldn't go that far. It's still an image that can be accessed on the internet that shows explicit content. I would think that no matter if it's tangible or not, it still must have docs if you are going to display it freely.

                                                      a designer is not a purveyor of porn.

                                                      im not disagreeing with you that designers may fall under 2257 but i agree with this part of lady mischiefs post

                                                      designers would fall into the same category as film processors etc.. we are providing a service, but we don't profit off the final product aside from the fee for our services

                                                      so by your estimation, any website wether adult or not, that has a porn pic must have a 2257?


                                                      2 questions for you nick

                                                      what industry is 2257 intended for and who do you think the goverment is going to look at first in regards to violations?

                                                      sure as fuck isnt gonna be a website designer.
