hi

i have the standard most basic django, apache, mysql, satchmo set up
going right now.

i have a demo shop running on apache, using svn 1850 right now, the
demo catalog works, but i just cant get the images to show, i am using
the directory layout found here: 
http://gosatchmo.com/starting-a-new-store-real-world-project-layout,

i just want to get the static media images to show, i have been trying
to fix this stupid ass problem by editing the httpd.conf, and the
settings,py.

what amazes me the most is that a simple guide to show the way through
a simple apache deployment does not exist on the satchmo site!

how can i do this?

thanks
