Isn't this in violation of common license agreements or does it count on which domain the images are hosted?
In theory, the domain it's hosted on is what counts, not where the links are coming from. If the sponsor allows it - then it shouldn't be a problem. Also, if it's exclusive content and the affiliate is promoting the sponsor only, it shouldn't be a problem.

All depends on the sponsor/site and their agreements.
