  Try changing the name of the field to "product_first_image_upload" but keep the field name in the database to be 'roduct_first_image'.
  $fields['product_first_image_upload'] = array( 'label' => ' Product Photo 1 '.$img1, 'type' => 'file', 'order' => '14', 'upload_path' =>assets_server_path('images/products/'), 'overwrite' => TRUE, 'accept'=>'jpg|jpeg|gif|tiff|png', );

  Thanks that seems to work, problem is though..on after post i have
  
  $CI =& get_instance();
  $CI->load->library('image_lib');
  $delete=$this->input->post('delete');
  if($delete==false) {
  
  
  // IF AN IMAGE IS UPLOADED CREATE 2 THUMBS
  
  if (!empty($CI->upload)) {
  $CI->upload->data();
  foreach($this->upload_data as $data) {
  
  // CHECK THE PDF DELETE CHECKBOXES
  
  //if(!empty($data['product_installation_pdf_delete'])) { $this->db->query("UPDATE fuel_products SET product_installation_pdf=this WHERE id=63"); }
  
  // KEEP THE FILENAME AND THE SQL THE SAME
  
  if (!empty($data['full_path'])) {
  if($data['file_ext']!='.pdf') {
  
  // RESIZE TO PROPER 256 X 256
  
  // CLEAN THE ACTUAL FILE BEFORE RESIZING
  
  $filename = strtolower($data['file_name']);
  
  $config = array();
  $config['source_image'] = $data['full_path'];
  $config['create_thumb'] = FALSE;
  $config['new_image'] = assets_server_path('products/thumbs/256'.$filename, 'images');
  $config['width'] = 256;
  $config['height'] = 256;
  $config['master_dim'] = 'auto';
  $config['maintain_ratio'] = TRUE;
  $CI->image_lib->clear();
  $CI->image_lib->initialize($config);
  if (!$CI->image_lib->resize()) {
  $this->add_error($CI->image_lib->display_errors());
  }
  
  // CREATE 88 X 88 THUMB
  
  $config = array();
  $config['source_image'] = $data['full_path'];
  $config['create_thumb'] = FALSE;
  $config['new_image'] = assets_server_path('products/thumbs/88'.$filename, 'images');
  $config['width'] = 88;
  $config['height'] = 88;
  $config['master_dim'] = 'auto';
  $config['maintain_ratio'] = TRUE;
  $CI->image_lib->clear();
  $CI->image_lib->initialize($config);
  if (!$CI->image_lib->resize()) {
  $this->add_error($CI->image_lib->display_errors());
  print_r($data);
  
  
  Which creates a 88 and a 256 size of the image and pulls the data from the upload_data
  When you select a file like the above from the assets and not locally the thumbnails do not get created as the file is outside of upload_data.
  
  Thanks

  I'm sorry but I'm not quite sure I understand the last part "When you select a file like the above from the assets and not locally the thumbnails do not get created as the file is outside of upload_data." Can you explain that a little more? Thanks.

  Sorry for the bad explanation.
  
  OK using the code you provided did the trick, I am now able to give the user the option to either upload from their computer (locally) or use the other field ( SELECT ) to which the user can click the select button and choose a file/image from the assets folder.
  
  The problem I have is the code above creates 2 thumbnails, these I need. The code above takes the image from the upload_data (browse for file field) and creates 2 thumbnails. If the user decides to use the other option and select the image from the assets folder instead then the 2 thumbnails never get created because its not uploaded data. How would I create 2 thumbnails?

  If this line:
  
  if ( ! empty($CI->upload)) {
  
  Is false (meaning it is empty) the path of the selected file will be in $values['product_first_image_upload'] or that may be $values['product_first_image'] sorry I don't use the assets like that.
  
  You can check all the posted data by doing a print_obj($_POST);
