    I'm asking this because in FAQ i can see :

    Don't spam the forum with things like:

    * Affiliate links (they are allowed in signatures though)

    Also in this thread, it seem to be ok..

    I just want some clarification ;)

    Thanx!

    I think you can add these things on your signature, But you can't promote it via post or PM.

    You can ad it to your sig, but I do not think you will be able to promote it when you respond to a post you will need to ask the mods to verify..

    Just as you are not allow to pm any one a affiliate link, or direct anyone to your website with an affiliate link there.
