Moved this issue from original ticket of MGNLUI-751. See full discussion from there.

Comment from Andreas:
There's no design for the entire dialog. However, what seems to be affected mainly is the layout of the image upload field, the design for this can be found here:
visual design of image upload field: http://wiki.magnolia-cms.com/display/UX/Style+guides+for+additional+UI+elements
Unfortunately, interaction-wise, that style guide is a bit out of date:
there should be an button to upload a new image (effectively creating a new image asset in the asset pool)
a second button allows you to select an existing image asset
an icon featuring the trash can will allow you to remove the image asset from the contact again
the magnifying glass for showing a lightbox-style preview is now a button inside the thumbnail image
I suggest to first fix the design of the existing functionality allowing you to select an image from Assets only*. We can then deal with the upload function later on and in a different issue.
You can find a more current design of a similar field, the media upload field in the Assets app, here: http://wiki.magnolia-cms.com/display/UX/Media+upload+field . This is where I plan to take the image upload field as well.

This is old stuff, really, and I would not want to invest too much time into Contacts currently. I'm closing this, though. Please re-open, if you believe this should be tackled soon.
