Browsers can sometimes cache old copies of photos, which may cause a delay in the new photo being displayed. To force an immediate refresh of your image, you will need to empty your temporary Internet files.  Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome and Safari each have different ways of accomplishing this.  For detailed instructions on each browser, please consult the wikiHow page on Clearing Your Browser's Cache.
