I'm getting undefined method 'image' for nil:NilClass in the index.html.haml page of my app. However on the show.html.haml page the code works fine and the image renders perfectly. I'm following this tutorial [this video] and it works perfectly for him. Check it at 48:16. I've gone through it several times but I still can't figure out what I'm missing.
