HLMV version?

I wanted to replace this image with a HLMV version since most other entries in the "Community fads" page got that treatment, but now I'm wondering if the low resolution in-game screenshot is more appropriate for the character, almost making it look like found footage. I do think that it should be replaced, but I also want to ask about this before changing it.

There used to be a better version of the image (an in-game screenshot with HUD and such, not the same from the Reddit post). Well, it looked clustered with the HUD, but I thought it looked better than the current one, it felt more a supernatural thing, ya'know, like a 1 time event that the only ever evidence existed was a low-crusty .jpg taken from Steam. As for an HLMV version, I don't see why not, Demopan seems to be an HLMV shot too. I would make the image darker (pan the lighting using Ctrl+Left Mouse) to show the glowing white eyes more effective, but make sure to not make too dark, just show the eyes being glow on the dark. So yes, yes for me.
