Perhaps you could get them to sign an agreement for the use of the images like 
when you sell them, but specify those things where the price would normally be. 
Then when they don't do it, mention legal action and see what happens.

Giving images in return for advertising seems like a reasonable thing to do, so 
long as it's enforceable.
