There's code in /path/to/mediagoblin/mediagoblin/db/mixins.py that will
return a default thumbnail for 'thumb_url' and 'original_url' if no
thumbnail or original image are available for the requested image. This
gets passed into /path/to/mediagoblin/mediagoblin/db/models.py as the
serialized 'image' and 'fullImage' URLs for media requested by the API.
Perhaps if your client had stale data from the host, it was trying to
access media which no longer existed, and thereby downloaded the default
image thumbnail? It's my best guess.
