So do I. Choosing the "right" image for an object is very much a matter of personal taste. Furthermore, a lot of controversial policy issues are associated with that task: Does that image need to be under a free license? What file formats are acceptable? Is it necessary that the image can be displayed within the context of some other site/software, rather than just viewed on a new browser tab? Do we deep-link to the image (even if the publisher doesn't want deep-links)? Overall, image selection is an editorial task, and therefore not suited for OSM.
