    It depends on the forum and of course if you link is relevant.

    Some forums have a sticky for useful links, but many may regard your post as self promoting which could see both your post and your posting priviliges removed.

    An option is to have a simple link in your sig, and as you post helpful and considered replies, other boardsies may think, you are a good guy and follow you sig link.

    Because of the amount of spam the mods clean up, they and we are very sensitive about "free advertising" and "promotion", taking from the community and not giving something back. 99% of boardsies dont see the spam as its removed almost instantly - it is a real nuisance, there may be a perception that this sort of thing is not abused - it is abused and the mods are very efficient and pretty ruthless about the posts and posters.

    Out of curiosity What is the site URL :) and what forum would be relevant to post in?

    V.

    Hope this helps
