working with affiliates myself 99% of them dont pay for any pictures and this is for a variety of reasons.
1. Its expensive to test let alone pay for an image then test it. Its easy to go through 30 images before you find a winning banner, you take a loss when in the testing phase.
2. Time is money, wasting time on a photographer and model.
2. Its easy
Your best bet is to save your time and focus on making more money. Your forgetting that these affiliates PAY for exposure. Thousands among thousands of impressions a day. They are not affraid to get it out there so its not like you are discovering something and making it public.
The media company that sells ad space cant be held liable, (read their TOS) its the affiliate.
Affiliates are smart, some of the smartest users of the internet. Many register with false information at the advertising company, hosting, domain registrar etc so even if you get them to reveal the information it wont get you anywhere.
When an affiliate does get caught, he usually gets a friendly email of please stop and change your content.
The days of piracy are here and in full swing. You must adapt or fail.
