Quesiton What is your opinion of promoting a photograph of a performer (or any celebrity for that matter) during a period in their career that is most popular/successful? For some reason I feel the EV is decreased since this particular picture is taken well after his prime. As an extreme example: which Elvis photo would you promote quality being the same, 1957 film Jailhouse Rock Elvis, or 1977 fat drugged Elvis? Mattximus (talk) 02:35, 9 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- But we do have an FP of Elvis somewhat past his prime: File:Elvis-nixon.jpg. Although Gabriel is not in Genesis anymore, he is still active as a solo artist: the year this image was taken, he released a solo album. There's still EV for an image showing him as he is now. If we get a good free image of him in the 70s, that can be a second FP. It's not unprecedented (we have two different FPs of Louis Armstrong, for instance). — Chris Woodrich (talk) 05:19, 9 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
