Besides put all your assets in the public folder, you can use the HTML::image()
Method, and only needs an argument which is the path to the image, relative on the public folder, as well:
{{ HTML::image('imgs/picture.jpg') }}
Which generates the follow HTML code:
<img src="http://localhost:8000/imgs/picture.jpg">
The link to other elements of HTML::image()
