Display of the cornershots is actually controlled by a module written to handle banner ads... it keeps track of number of times the image has been displayed, and shows it with reference to the total number of impressions being aimed for.

If I keep max impressions all the same across all cornershots, then I can control (to a small degree) frequency of display of new images, simply by assigning them a 'number of impressions' that's slightly below the existing average; they'll be displayed a bit more than usual until the average climbs.

So new shots are ALWAYS seen a bit more frequently than existing ones, at least for the first few days.

(It's not easy to tell; the differences really aren't that big.)

: ... I think he's trying to tell me something...

He sent that one this morning, in a a slightly less appealing version. I turned it down. A little bit ago, he asked if I wanted him to redo it - I said 'well, yeah, if it looked like this' - but then it was redone, so there was no point in having him turn another one in. :)
