For this point you might consider to add a sort of did you know that you can see on a pictures page where it is used? to a sort of thank you message. Another thing could simply be a list of pictures used a lot (and other similar lists) to motivate people (smaller things without prices just lists of those)
Maybe we could have one of the bots leave a thank you message when one of the images is used (you could make that a bit higher if that becomes to spammy). A user should only get the message once and should have a link to a tool to show the usage of images uploaded by a certain user. Do we already have such a tool? I think this would be a great motivator, not only for Wiki Loves Monuments but for Commons as a whole.
