Well I never used 'base' before; that was your idea :)
Anyhow 'base' should be in the head section, I don't think it would be
such a good idea to use it.
To make a shortcut in your page how about generating an URL string and
then just prepending it to the image tags? For example:
Create the string:
{{u=URL('static',args=('plugin_layouts','layouts','Optimism'))}}
Use it wherever you wish in the view:
<img src="{{=u}}/image.jpg" />
Just an idea, but it might simplify things a little if there are many
links.
