Display the alternative photos of candidates on the person page #809

Maybe a low-priority, long-term ask, but I suspect it might be nice to have multiple photos of candidates. Users really like photographs. A bit of a photo collection might be fun. (Or maybe a la twitter/facebook, each candidate would have a cover image and a profile image...)

Candidates can already have multiple photos, although they're not displayed in normal circumstances. (If you upload a photo for a candidate that already has one, the person reviewing the photo can opt to make it the primary photo or not, but the existing photos are preserved in any case.)

But yes, it would be nice if the alternative photos were displayed somewhere on the candidate pages for normal users. I'll edit the title of this issue slightly to reflect that.

Ooh, interesting, didn't realise. Thanks Mark!
