You bring up a good example of why it's simpler to just have a blanket "no posting of your links" policy and why the link rule changes will be hard to codify.
Yes, putting one's link in the profile field has been allowed. But you sometimes post telling people to click on it which circumvents the notion of not using posts to solicit website traffic. You also had put a call to click on it in your signature....
Thank you for your detailed answer. It is much appreciated. I can see the problems that you face: re: "advertising" websites. I think to make things nice and simple for myself, I will voluntarily remove my link from the
www line in my profile. I will only use "img" tags to show off my works.
One thing, though, for the record, the info that I put in my signature line was not to point others to my site. It was to let others know that I have a web
email address in my profile. Not web (site). I did this because I am not able to reply to PM's yet. I don't know if that was not okay either, but either way, I will leave my sig line blank.
