Generally, we discourage all solicitation, which includes linking to commercial (i.e. for profit) troper ventures.

My apologies if this becomes tiresome, but I have another question about the ad policy, if I may:
I recently started up a Tee Public store, and want to bring it to the attention of others. Naturally, I don't intend to post an ad on the forum—that I'm aware is against the rules.
What I'm unsure about is having such a link in my signature.
Now, I already have a similar link in place—but that's for a creative project, and while I intend to one day release it commercially, right now there's no money changing hands. As a result, I'm not sure that it's quite comparable.
I do see that the rules include a prohibition of such links, but that's given in the context of new users attempting to circumvent being disallowed to immediately post links.
So, would it be acceptable to include in my signature a simple link-and-description for my Tee Public store, along with the above-mentioned creative-project link?
(For the sake of clarity, let me note that I don't intend to post just to show my signature! ^^; )
It's very possible that I'm being over-anxious, but I think that I'd rather ask a possibly-silly question to check than presume one way or another. ^^;
