### Problem Faced

GitHub doesn't allow javascript in markdowns, so i cant simply sent a request to a url. So, I have to do this using "image" tag provided by markdown.

To host your images, GitHub uses the open-source project Camo. Camo generates an anonymous URL proxy for each file which hides your browser details and related information from other users.

So, the main problem was, it caches the image and even the image changes, that doesn't reflect in readme. So, to fix that problem, I have set the cache-control to 'no-cache'.
