Per 2011 NEC (newest I have handy) exemption is 5-1/2' above the floor. Not diagonal across the counter. I believe the tamper-proofs started with 2008 code. If you are swapping receptacles I'm not sure that would trigger a necessary upgrade. However GFI is a good idea and has been required for 30+ years. It' not like a kidd is going to climb on the counter and insert paper clips.
If you had kids or grand-kids, changing the low ones might be worthwhile.
I see grounds twisted together.... you do have a wirenut or crimp on that?
