In Umbraco 6.0.3, uploading new versions of individual media files does not overwrite the existing file. I've opened http://issues.umbraco.org/issue/U4-2100 on this issue.
I'm fairly sure this is by design, the ID of the media item gets updated not the actual file, so when you use GetMedia() you'll get the new image, the only time it won't work for you is when you've hardcoded the link to the media file, which you shouldn't do.
@Sobin: This is a separate issue from U4-1990. Similar but different. I'm uploading from within the existing file rather than from the parent directory. The "overwrite existing" button doesn't even exist the way I'm doing the upload.
@Rich: I wish this was the problem. :-) Just using the media ID and letting Umbraco resolve it to the real URL on the back-end would be great but this isn't how the link picker tool in TinyMCE works currently.
