STATIC_ROOT = '%s/site_media' % PROJECT_DIR

    Use 

    STATICFILES_DIRS = (os.path.join(STATIC_ROOT, ''),)

    Your STATIC_DIR should point to the project site_media dir. When adding images' to it, then 127.0.0.1:8000/static/images/something.jpg is being searched in .../site_media/images/images/something.jpg
