Make sure you're definitely uploading a new image: press Ctrl-F5 to
force-refresh (that tells your browser to ignore cached versions and reload
everything).
This doesn't sound like a CSS problem - if only the image is changing then
the CSS can be cached, it's just the image that needs to be reloaded.
To force the image to be refreshed you can do it through a CFM proxy -
similar method as I described before... create a band.cfm that you reference
in the CSS instead of the jpg, and try this in the file:
<cfheader name="Cache-Control" value="no-cache"/>
<cfheader name="Expires" value="#GetHttpTimeString(Now())#"/>
<cfcontent type="image/jpeg" file="#ExpandPath('../images/band.jpg')#"
reset="yes"/><cfabort/>
If it doesn't work check the various options in the W3 link in the other
message and see if any are appropriate.
