It might be a case that WMT just hasn't updated yet. I'm not 100% sure how often the information is updated on there. I went to the link I posted, grabbed the urls of one of the images and simply used ctrl + F on the images sitemap to to see if the image path is located in there and it is.
As an aside, your main sitemap links to seog/sitemap_images.xml intead of /sitemap_images.xml
Summary; they're being indexed and WMT just hasn't had chance to update yet

It all seems legit to me. Sitemaps are pretty standard anyway. Have you submitted it to Webmaster tools? A sitemap without any exposure is pretty useless

I see loads of them being indexed
You just have to allow Google time to crawl and index your website. 5 days isn't really a long time. But using that link, you can see that a simple site:www.yourlamode.com search in Google Images brings up all the images that have been indexed.

Can SEO companies be listed on Google Local, Bing Local, and Yahoo Local?
Can anyone confirm if SEO companies can be listed in the local results for Google, Yahoo, and Bing? I'm asking because when you search for most local terms, it will return their local listings. However, that doesn't appear to be the case when searching for SEO or marketing services - or at least none show up when searching from Houston and I'm pretty sure we have quite a few SEO companies here 😉

Genuine Reciprocal Google Places Reviews, is that OK?
I have a client who works with other businesses, is it OK to have reciprocal reviews going on, they would be genuine reviews both both sides as they work for each other. Is that OK? Is it best for my client to use the Google Account that holds their Google Places page for doing the reviews? Or should they have a separate account for writing reviews, not associated with their business? I would appreciate your thoughts on this please? Many thanks Leo

Question Regarding Multiple Google Places Pages
Hello, One of my clients has about 20 different google places pages at locations that are not real. The previous SEO company thought that would help with local search. My problem is that several great reviews have been written on each page by real customers. I want to close the places pages for locations that don't exist, but I don't want to lose the reviews. Is anyone aware of a solution for this? I have searched Google's forums and have not found anything.

Optimizing Google Places Listing - Please Help!
I claimed the Google Places listing a few months ago - added a description and all the necessary information. Finally got the page to show up in the places category on the 5th page for the search "vet las vegas". Then on some computers it likes to show up on the 8th page and on others the 5th page - weird!?. I need some help on the following: How can I get Google to put my website as an link in the "More About This Place"/citation section? The old website which was at a different domain is present but not the new one (the new one has been live for 2 months). -Am I missing any key information to help with my ranking? The 8th page is a pretty poor ranking and holds no value whatsoever. The description I typed out on Google Places does not display in the search results. - I am assuming adding citations is essentially just about adding backlinks that Google can pull to add to the "More About This Place" section - any surefire ways to get more citations there?

Thank you to all the SEOMOZ members would have helped me over the last month - you guys are awesome! Thanks again, Brant
