If you are sure you are getting everything correct (in the database and the file where it should be) you should use something like this in the view.
<?php echo $this->Html->image($this->data['Post']['image']); ?>
this is assuming you are passing the data from the controller in the way described in the tutorial to a view view :)
if is an index view you should have a variable posts that have all post info, and in the view you will be in a loop like a foreach ($post as $post). Assuming this your view should have something like this:
<?php echo $this->Html->image($post['Post']['image']); ?>
Suggestion: use debug kit (cakephp plugin) so you can see what variables are passed down and the structure (like a pr($variable))
Hope all this helps you, if not, comment this post so i can try to extend my answer if needed
