This shouldn't be made into that big of deal, not necessarily that is. Take the artists I named earlier as example, where for instance, I'm sure Kohta Takahashi wouldn't like to come here and see that picture as his profile image, same could be said about Keiichi Sugiyama.
What I mean to say is that, what they meant by "disliking the choice of portraits" is them essentially wanting to see their profile pages having--and I know I've said this word a lot in my past posts--a professional-looking image and not one where they're out of focus, are staring blindly at something else other than the camera, or simply were caught by surprise.
I agree that adding guidelines and requiring images to be sourced should be a proper approach. Asking for permission to use certain images should be done if said images come from an artist's Twitter or any other social page, but by now that goes without saying.
