Using CC pieces for a portfolio

I'm trying to build an online portfolio. Can I use CC pieces that I'm offering for full rights if I take them out of my portfolio when they sell? I would put them as an image, just like CC, so they stay google-friendly. I'm new to freelance writing and afraid to use anything that hasn't been approved by an editor, but I don't want to break any rules. Thanks!

Even if you use an image, that would probably negate your ability to sell it for full or unique rights as the article is technically "published" online. How about linking to your CC profile? That way, customers can see your current listings and you won't have to worry about updating your portfolio.

The site that I'm fooling around with requires an attachment to build your portfolio. For now I think I will upload a document with a link to my CC portfolio. Thanks for your help Celeste! You're awesome!
