"His image" could mean a number of things.
If we take the definition of image to mean "a representation of the external form of a person or thing in sculpture, painting, etc."... then one might not wonder if he made us in his image in regards to our consciousness?
It is never said we were made perfect... only that we were made in his image. (And if 'God' is imperfect: then this is all the more true )

What is perfection anyway?
I know I'm a very imperfect being... but i can make things much more "perfect" (in my opinion) than myself (ie: music). Why could not the same be said of 'God'?
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day
