Any way to eliminate "Access my basic information" from Facebook Connect?

I'm using Facebook connect to let users import some photos.

The only permission I've requested is user_photos but facebook adds the default one Access my basic information at the top which says they are also giving me access to their name, list of friends, and "any other information I've shared with everyone".

I really only want access to the photos, and I think the "basic information" box will scare off some users who don't want to give access to this. Is there any way to get rid of that part?

No, you can't exclude it because, it is the basic information of the user that is needed by an application to work and as you said yourself, a user will only share "any other information I've shared with everyone".

The information you'll get with the basic information is already shared by the user to everyone else.

Unless you believe that you are not part of that everyone.
