Hi,
You are not the first to have trouble when serving images from django's
built-in server.
It is not only images, but all staticfiles.
I'd like to clarify your settings.py
The directory you have put in STATICFILES_DIRS will be available to
django as /static/ in your web app, but you need to have
STATICFILES_FINDERS =
("django.contrib.staticfiles.finders.FileSystemFinder",
"django.contrib.staticfiles.finders.AppDirectoriesFinder")
Also the django test server needs to have correct permissions to open
and read that folder,
but when you go just to /static/, you will not see anything, it will not
list the files, you need to specify exact name of the file.
Django help:

If this didn't help, try stackowerflow

Can display images pulled from the web, but not any stored on local
hard drive. Some of the relevant items in my settings.py looks like
this:
MEDIA_ROOT = 'C:/djcode/images/'
MEDIA_URL = 'C:/djcode/images/'
STATIC_ROOT = ''
STATIC_URL = '/static/'
STATICFILES_DIRS = (
# Put strings here, like "/home/html/static" or
"C:/www/django/static".
# Always use forward slashes, even on Windows.
# Don't forget to use absolute paths, not relative paths.
"C:/djcode/images/"
)
Would appreciate any guidance or suggestions on what I am missing or
doing incorrectly. Thanks.
