This isn't just a Commons problem. See
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:You_light_up_my_life_-_7_inch.jpg.
I uploaded the edited image three (3) times, with the newest thumb remaining
the wrong version, as described by Erwin Dokter, above. I thought I was
inadvertently uploading the unedited file, until I finally figured out that
Wikipedia was screwed up. Since then, I've only uploaded modified images to
Wikipedia or Wikimedia Commons once, and waited to see if the corrections would
eventually show up in the article. A recent image,
http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:SolderGun.jpg, took almost 48 hours to
update the thumbnail on the image page and show the edited image in the
Wikipedia article. Purging the thumbnail cache on Wikipedia/Wikimedia and
clearing my browser cache has zero effect. Using a different browser has zero
effect. The problem of thumbnails not being updated is entirely beyond the
user's control.
