(Get the code!)
This would happen when an old static url is cached on a browser (for example, right after an update). I was not able to reproduce the issue, but I don't have IE and I would bet that it has a hand in this, given its history of caching woes.
After an update, if a page is cached on the user's file system and the browser does not check with the server on reload, the browser may try to get the images from the old location.
We could add code in our not found view to handle this, perhaps redirecting to the current static url when something on the static path is not found.
Before that, though, I will check for this behavior using IE tomorrow.
