  My domain name is http://www.carriekenrick.com – which is masked to http://www.carriekenrick.wordpress.com. I am trying to link images to my contact page, however the links will only work if you click the images through the http://www.carriekenrick.wordpress.com website, not http://www.carriekenrick.com. I thought I already masked the two names to be the same one. How can the links work for http://www.carriekenrick.com??

  The domain masking you’ve used is only masking – it is done through an iframe “trick” by your registrar.

  It works, but as you’ve noticed, internal links point to their WordPress.com url.

  Instead of masking, you can use the domain mapping upgrade to fully map your domain to your side.
  Take a look at the following document for instructions on how to do that:

  By the way, you might want to try a contact form in your contact page:
