COMMON ISSUES, CHECK HERE FIRST:

The page thumbnail isn't updating when I upload a new version of an image

IMFDB uses a hosting service called Cloudflare. One side-effect of this is that there is a Cloudflare server between IMFDB's server and you, so uploading a new version of an image updates the image on the actual server, but it doesn't update the one stored in Cloudflare's cache for a while, and that's what people see. You can force an update to the thumbnail by changing the size of the displayed image by even a single pixel, but the image itself you just have to wait for. So just change it from, say 600px to 601px after uploading the new image and it should update on the page.

I got this weird message about failing to create an image and the mwstore?

For reasons that are unclear, the image uploader dislikes certain combinations of numbers being present in a filename. Try re-submitting but removing any strings of multiple numbers from the filename (eg change LordOfTheRings-1911-1.jpg to LordOfTheRings-ColtPistol-1.jpg).

Can't log in due to disabled cookies / "could not process your edit due to a loss of session data" / large pages do not fully load

This is an issue the site is currently having at particular times of day. Do not log out as the prompt requests, it makes no difference and you will not be able to log back in until the site finishes doing whatever it is doing. The period this occurs seems to be roughly 11pm to 5am US Central Time.
