Let's take DonnysGirls.com for instance:

I shoot all the content myself, the member's area is superb, conversions kick ass, and retention is very very high. It's a very unique website.

Since I have a small staff (4 people total) I don't have time to offer FREE hosted galleries in specific formats for others. I offer a list of galleries. Hundreds of them.

I hate the welfare mentality some people demonstrate. Give me FREE hosted galleries. Give me text descriptions. What's next?

My sites make 6 figures per year and a very small percentage of it comes from affiliates. I am pretty sure it's because most affiliates have this welfare "give me something for nothing" mentality.

There are two sides to every story. Try to see the sponsor's side too.
What's hard about making a list of hosted galleries that can be easily exported? If you're making the fat cash, surely you can afford a programmer to set it up for you. There are tons of programs out there all vying for traffic and the best way to get it is to make things easier for your affiliates. Why would a webmaster go out of his/her way to promote a program that isn't willing to do something to help the affiliates? If you won't, trust me, someone else will.
