I agree the readme is not very clear on this. The url method provides the url to the uploaded file. The section Show View assumes that the file is an image with thumbnails, and so is using image_tag. If instead it is a file to be downloaded you would need something like <%= link_to "Download", @user.avatar.url %> though you would probably not have called it avatar of course, and it may be attached to a model other than User.
