Yep - I reckon they will all be the same as well which is why I suggested
using the tempname function to provide a unique file path, writing the image
to it, setting the imagesource and then deleting the temporary file. I might
have confused things unnecessarily by mentioning the caching issue, which on
reflection seems not to be relevant if you use this method.
