@jip31 the above should work provided you have restarted/refreshed Splunk after uploading the image home.jpg insided your app's ( SA_xx_xx_xx_xx_xx_sh ) appserver/static folder. If you are getting 404 Not Found error then it implies that
1) You either do not have static file in the right place or
2) You have not restarted/refreshed your Splunk instance after uploading the static file.
3) You need to clear your Browser history or try new browser session in InPrivate/Incongnito mode.

Following is a run anywhere example which opens dashboard.css in the search app.

<dashboard>
  <label>Static File link in Dashboard Clone</label>
  <row>
    <panel>
      <html>
        <div>
          <a href="/static/app/search/dashboard.css">Open dashboard.css</a>
        </div>
      </html>
    </panel>
  </row>
</dashboard>

You have already created a hyperlink. The text "patches" in working as a hyperlink. If you want more you can decorate your hyperlink like this:

 <row>
     <panel>
       <html>
  <p>
           <a href="http://blogs.bmc.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/database-blue.png" target="_blank" style="font-style: oblique; text-decoration: underline;">Patches</a> 
         </p>
   </html>
     </panel>
   </row>
