title: image display in codeigniter shows error
body: <p>I am relatively new to Codeigniter, basically I choose CakePHP to develope applications. Now I am editing a Codeigniter Project, build in version 2. I have some images in my table and I need to disply it. 
  I have created a helper file <code>general_helper.php</code> in which I have a function </p>
  
  <pre><code>function image_url(){
     return base_url().'uploads/';
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>So in view page , I tried to display image by</p>
  
  <p><code>&lt;img src="http://localhost/myapp/uploads/vendors/images/Desert.jpg" /&gt;</code></p>
  
  <p>My directory structure is :</p>
  
  <pre><code>myapp
   -uploads
      -vendors
         -images
         -logos
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But its not showing the image ! When I tried to put the image path in the <code>url</code>, it shows <code>404</code> error :( whats wrong ?</p>
