Hi, There are a couple of things to think about here.
First of all - just because you put an item on your computer doesn't mean that the icon can be served. For example, if you are running windows and you enter 'C:\pictures\icon.jpg' as the source for the icon, your server won't be able to find it, because the reference 'C:\pictures\icon.jpg' doesn't mean anything for the web browser. The reason the image links you are inputting work is because they probably contain all information, ie http://www.example.com/pictures/icon.jpg. So you can get that sorted and everything should work. HOWEVER, I really think you should use the media storage functionality of Django for this. Checkout : https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.11/topics/files/. If you add the settings required (MEDIA_ROOT in the settings file) and then change you logo from a CharField to an ImageField AND upload your file via django admin, you should be able to show your file.
