The question is about using css stylesheets in your assets folder within the code igniter framework. If I want to reference a certain image for a css style, lets say for instance, background: url('../images/some_image.gif'). How should I reference this image, and what url should I provide. I'd like to do this in a way that I can put my image file in the image folder within assets.

There's no difference in regards to this because you're using Codeigniter, you can use /absolute/paths, full URLs, or probably the easiest way - relative urls.
The url to the image can just be relative to the <link>ed CSS file.
Example:
-assets -css screen.css -images bg.png
In your HTML:
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/assets/css/screen.css">
From screen.css:
background:url(../images/bg.png);
