Wait a second. They may not have ownership rights over the photos but don't they have ownership rights over the text which they authored? I wasn't aware that the DMCA only covered images and videos. I'm not a lawyer but it seems to me you might be messing up and if an affiliate really wanted to push it they could now make you liable for copyright infringement.
