Just to point 3. I hope I can give a hint, the problem is, that
the match is not the * but /images/*, so
router.get("/images/*", serveStaticFiles("images/"))

will look in PROJECTHOME/images/images/ for the file.

For my .css files located in

PROJECTHOME/public/styles/

I used:
router.get("/styles/*", serveStaticFiles("public/"))

if you put your images in
PROJECTHOME/public/images

router.get("/images/*", serveStaticFiles("public/"));
should work.

@5. There is a solution, hopefully I can find the link and post 
it later.
