displaying correct image url

[garagefan]

currently, self.image.name displays the absolute server path...

i want to change this so that when i call it, it either display the
relative path, or an absolute path for the website itself.

so instead of displaying /home/site/mysite/images/gallery/
imagename.jpg

it will display http://www.sitename/images/gallery/imagename.jpg

in settings i have:

MEDIA_ROOT = '/home/site/mysite/images'
MEDIA_URL = 'http://www.sitename.com/images/'

in the models.py:

image = models.ImageField(upload_to='/home/site/mysite/images/
gallery')

"mysite" being the base level directory for the site itself
