Help to make pictures not cached

What is the best way to make sure that the pictures I have on a site do
not get cached. I see so much contrary information but I enjoy reading
your posts and you people seem to know what is really going on.

Basically we have the main website, I'll call it gymdandy.com

What I did was for each salesperson I set up a subdomain such as
amy.gymdandy.com and fred.gymdandy.com

Now I want none of the images (all jpgs) in amy.gymdandy.com and
fred.gymdandy.com to be cached, but I'd like the words to be cached.

Any other pics and words anywhere else on the site can be cached.

I put a meta tag in the index page for amy.gymdandy.com and
fred.gymdandy.com which is
<META NAME="ROBOTS" CONTENT="NOIMAGEINDEX">

Would this be enough to keep Google, Yahoo and MSN.

The main page gymdandy.com has already been crawled, and I just finished
each salesman's subdomain page, so it'll be awhile before the site is
crawled again.
Is there a better way to do it. I am not sure about the robots.txt use
with subdomains

Thanks for your help
