You mean your portfolio on here?
You might be sending them a link that is particular for you viewing, meaning it's from the edit view.
Click on My Profile->scroll down your profile to "View this photographer's profile"-> then paste the link for whatever actual folder you want to.
If you're just doing a single image, use the thumbnail button, which is right between the globe icon and the member icon. To use this, you must add the number ID for the photo, which is at the end of the photo's URL. You can also use the icon on the far right which is a flower type thing, which you click on and then select the image from your portfolio itself and it takes care of your photo ID number being pasted in.

i meant the thumbnail thing., and yea i've been doing t that way - it just keeps doing a broken link. I've tried uploading smaller files and reuploading and it won't work. I've done it earlier and it worked fine, now it wont - not sure whats going on

The images from your portfolio seem to post OK. As in the example above.

Just remember to entry the full image ID number, and only the number, when you use the link to the site image button.

Edits to add: what you wind up with, should look like this without the "quotes".

In the editing pane of posting window you should see this icon

- use that to select photograph from your portfolio.

You are using the wrong button to insert your thumbs, the one you are using is for off site images, the thumbs button is this one
