I want to print an image by using a img src tag in a Django template file "base.html":
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN">
<html lang="en">
<title>Foto</title>
</head>
<h1>My helpful timestamp site</h1>
<img src="google.png" / >
<p>Made by ... </p>
</body>
</html>
In views.py I define:
def hello(request):
return render_to_response('base.html')
But the image does not show up in the browser. If I open it as a simple html file, it shows up in the browser.

That happens because Django does not know the path to this image.
Make a folder named static/
, and then a folder named images/
in your project root(where your settings.py file resides).
my_project/
my_project/
settings.py
static/
images/
google.png
And then change it to:
<img src="{{STATIC_URL}}images/google.png" / >

You have got to add load static tag in the beginning of your Django template, best luck with below code.
{% load static %}
<img src="{% static 'path/to/image.ext' %}"/>
