I've seen potential affiliates bring it up at least four times on GFY. You seem like an intelligent person so I'm sure you realize that for every one person bringing it up here 10 - 100 have likely noticed it and said nothing while perhaps deciding not to promote you.
You have a decent niche site and you are actively involved in keeping it going on a daily basis. Those are strong pluses these days when many niche sites haven't been updated in three years. That said I bet you'd get a lot more affiliates if you fixed some of the issues relevant to affiliates.
If you ever decide to take action and have some spare resources to pay for some design tweaks it wouldn't be that hard to make a leak free tour only for your affiliates (they could pass in the url using the &HTML= parameter of the ccbill link) while keeping the same design for your type-ins. I think you could be pleasantly surprised by the reaction from potential and existing affiliates. Especially in these times.
