What about video box covers and print screens?

1. You said 'nude' content was subject to 18 USC 2257. It is not. Sexually-explicit conduct as mandated by 18 USC 2257 includes touching a sexual body part. Plain old nudity is not a sexual image and is exempt from the record-keeping requirements of 18 USC 2257.
2. As a video producer, I can tell you there are very specific things we MUST put on a video, and not just anywhere. Check any adult video box cover and in teeny tiny print you'll most likely see the 18 USC 2257 notice. Check my video labels and you'll see it there, within 60 seconds of the start of the videotape, and at a specific time frame at the end of the video as well.
The most important thing is YOU can protest these changes. If you feel as a small business owner the cost to make all these changes and maintain this information (the URL where every single image is, for example -- on every TGP, every newsgroup, etc) is prohibitive, it's covered in the proposed legislation.
