Images, css files etc need to reside outside the application folder, preferably in an "assets" folder that is located on the same level. You can then link to them in your views like so:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="<?php echo base_url(); ?>assets/css/style.css">

Your folder structure would be:

ci-project
-index.php
-application
-assets
--css // --> style.css
--img // --> logo.png

Maybe ?:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="../code/application/style/style.css">
