Can you show us your full code? This code should work so I can only assume one of two things:

  1. You've uploaded the images to somewhere other than the folder called img
  2. The file your HTML is in, isn't in the same folder as the img folder. For example, if your page is in domain.com/portfolio/index.html, and your img folder is at domain.com/img, then you need to add a / to the start of the image source. Otherwise the browser is looking for an image in domain.com/portfolio/img.

If you have a link to the site I can take a look and tell you exactly what's wrong :)

Cheers, Ash
