Signature within the rules?

Hi. I'm selling my car so I made an ad and put it in my sig (as you can see below). Just wondering if it's within the rules. The Sig rules say no blinking flashing all singing and dancing ads.

Anyway, if it's bothering anyone I'll just remove it.

Thanks.

Even referencing your business is allowed in practice, if it's clear that's not all you're about here.

It's a grey area, but for an ad that'll be there for a short time, for a regular user, I'm inclined to allow it unless someone comes up with a good argument otherwise.

Great. Thanks for that. It'll be gone within a week or two anyway.

Nice one
