There is generally understood rule of not simply posting links to drive traffic to your own site. Also, users with under 5 posts have been restricted from posting links in the past, so I'm not even sure how this one get past. In any case, if you're not a contributing member of the forum, then it's unfair to come here and try to drive users to your own site. Also, the fact that this post was months old and you choose to bump it with self-advertisement does not reflect particularly well on your intentions.
