No, that's fine. AFAIK, image licensing issues come up when it's a single-panel cartoon strip or a licensed photograph from somewhere else, so that should be fine.

As long as the image doesn't have a copyright bug (a watermark or logo indicating someone owns it), and is not a complete reproduction of a copyrighted work, it's covered under Fair Use.

Well, someone else put a different photo. I may replace that.

^ If there's already an image on the page, you are not to unilaterally change it without consensus. You may want to open an Image Pickin' thread if you think the image you've found is better than the current one. TBH, I find the current image really blurry, and therefore bad, so you might make a good case for a replacement.

Image Pickin' also sets the Hive Mind Seal of Approval on the choice. :p
