Bug Description
Banners that work in the <https:/
Apparently, the banner HTML and images at https:/
It would be nice to have a no-cache flag or environment variable, where USC would append ?nocache or similar to the URL of every resource it requests.

The actual exhibits list at:
https:/ /software- center. ubuntu. com/api/ 2.0/exhibits/ en/
is cached, but I'd be surprised if we were caching the banner urls included there. I think we'll need to investigate a bit more to find out why USC doesn't see the images.
One thought is that when the image is uploaded and made available on ServerA (and uploaded to the ftp server using the ftp storage), it is *not* available on ServerB until there is a request from the application itself for the image url - but it needs investigation that I can't do now :P
