Why do uploaded pictures disappear on Heroku?

Tags:

image-upload

I deployed my first Heroku app yesterday, and everything worked great.

In my app you can upload an image, I did and could see it on the "show" page. However, today the image disappeared. Everything else seems to work just fine. The application is working just fine on my local machine as well as on Heroku, other than the image which is not there.

What may be the problem? How can I make sure it doesn't happen again?
