Post personal websites in signature?

[damainman]

I was wondering if it was allowed to post personal websites/communities that i've developed into my signature.

Just simple text links, not big fonts, no graphics, just short and simple. I read the forum rules but not really understanding it concerning personal websites in the signature lol.

However i've seen other people with websites in their sig, but i just want to verify so i dont break the rules.


thank you in advance.

Hey there

As far as im aware, you can put links to websites in your sig, as long as the websites are not for profit etc

Signature Rules:

You can have one (1) image in your signature and up to four (4) lines of text including blank lines
This image can no larger than 480px by 80px and up to 15K in filesize
Links to other forums or communities may only be a single text link consisting of only the name of the site no larger than size=1 or a graphic image no larger than 80px X 15px.

...its Ok ta do. people dont pay attention ta sigs anyway, much like the ads on the top of the page

All of our guidelines are outlined in the Forum Rules.

yep you can put your PERSONAL website in the sig. Not a business site or a money making site.

If you are unsure check out the Forum rules as 'schweb' said.

Actually, I don't think that is specified.

It's a gray area. Generally if the intent of your signature is to "market" or "advertise" then yes, that wouldn't be allowed under our advertising rules.

It really comes down to intent.

I had a signature that linked to my business site (I'm a freelance web developer). But it was humble... not like a "click here for a free ipod" scam. I think as long as you're tactful/tasteful it would be ok. But I'm not a mod so take that with a grain of salt =)
