Howdi,
Well, it's up to you where you want to keep your image files. But wherever they are, you need to be consistent with that.
If you are running on a *nix server, you could keep them in one location, say outside of the CI / web directory, and provide a symlink back into your ../assets/images/ directory say.
I guess the important question for you is where do you actually store, or want to store, these images? Once you know for sure where this place will be, it will be easy to explain how to reliably and consistently refer to them in your code.
You might also want to give an example of a couple of lines in your code where you have referred to an image, and the browser is not displaying it.
