That's like saying it's ok to use minors in porn movies so long as you don't actually show the penetration......every first amendment attorney we've questioned about this has said the same thing.

Nothing in this letter from the DOJ changes that.
Well then its fucked up and should be changed. When you crop an image you make an entirely brand new image. If that new image is not "sexually explicit conduct" then it shouldn't fall under the regs.
