No...At least I am pretty sure your not allowed. I have never seen it before but noticed threads about this before, major nono the code won't work

It's against CJ's TOS to post links on bulletin board. It's ok with CJ to put link on your Myspace pages.

MySpace TOS specifically say that you can't use your profile to promote affiliate links. You can do it anyway, just be prepared to have your profile deleted without a warning. :D

Doesn't MySpace automatically strip out any CJ links you try to promote on your profile so it ends up looking like 2 dots ".." & the links end up not working?

If you wanted to go down that avenue, you'd probably need to be more creative to get your links to work on MySpace.

Can you point me in the direction of CJ's TOS? I've been using affiliate links in my forum for quite some time. I'm not sure why that would be against terms, since it's a relevant forum about my product.

Thanks!

Don't do it!!!! Myspace can report you to CJ and your isp may be able to impose a fine on your account for the removal of such ads. It's really not worth the risk. It is also against ebay's tos to advertise on blogs I believe.
