Possible New Image[edit]

I think there should be a new image on the Nirvana wikipedia page since the current one is blurry and doesn’t show all of the band members. I think maybe we could use a screencap from the Live at the Paramount or Live at Reading performance since those are a lot clearer.KevinTheSeaCucumber (talk) 14:56, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The image we have right now isn't great, but the problem is it needs to be a copyright-free image, or an image someone donates to Wikipedia. So we can't just take screengrabs from other people's videos. Popcornfud (talk) 15:02, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
