This is only my opinion here, but I would think that you would need to cut your thumb from a photo that does not require 2257, meaning a softcore image to create a softcore thumb. Maybe someone can clearify that more, but its my understanding that ANY manipulation of a hardcore or sexually explict photo requires 2257 declarations. Cropping from a softcore photo would seem to keep you exempt from 2257 docs. However, then there is the whole "softcore thumb" linking to a "hardcore gallery" issue. The way have read it is that your softcore thumb would also have to link to a totally softcore gallery also. I cold be wrong on that though. However, I could see that being a huge plus on getting traffic to the actual site if that indeed is the case.
Some may have other opinions though.
