Yes, images by default end up in build/_images, so you should build your 
raw HTML code to point to that directory, but I understood you already did 
this.

About relative paths and content "outside" the source folder: I use 
withouth problems symlink to deal with this. I have different documents in 
a same repository, each in a separate directory which is also a separate 
source folders, but I also have some common content for both projects and 
extensions I use for both of them. So I put the files for this in a 
separate directory (call it "common") and I successfully use symlinks to 
access content in "common". I do not know, however, if this is a feasible 
approach or if it should be avoided. In the latter case, I'd be happy to 
accept suggestions.

Hope this helps,
Stefano
