The bottom line is that cropped content issues have never gone to court, so you've just got to do what you feel comfortable with.
Your scenario is brought up a lot, and that kind of thing is a cause for concern to any TGP owner regardless of 2257. But I don't think it applies to 2257 records keeping since there was nothing sexual in what you published. However, you can still get into trouble and that certainly is nothing new.
If you post a cropped headshot thumb of a CP pic that points to someone else's CP gallery, you may be charged with conspiracy to disseminate CP.
So even though I don't think it applies to 2257 records keeping, I could see the reality in them knocking on your door asking about a suspected CP gallery located in Russia that you linked to via a "clean" thumb. Who knows where that could then lead to.
