I will also make any sign you want of your favorite trail or hike, just drop me a note and I will quote you a price.

Love It!! Super Idea!! Like I think I mentioned earlier, you should look into having a booth at Trail Days & other Trail Festivals. IMHO These signs will draw much attention!

This is fine and your work is nice, but you have posted your sales pitches several times now and it gets to the point that it becomes spam (imo).
Might be better putting it in the sell forum or ask the moderator.

I refer you both to this thread, for an opinion from a Moderator.

Quoted from that thread:
Repeated commercial threads are NOT okay...
I completely agree! The Hiker Bash in Franklin is April 1&2. Then I think there is
another hiker “Gathering” at the NOC the next weekend (I think, better do a search)
I do not know how much it would cost to set up as a vendor, but I can’t believe it would
be much.
From a marketing standing (something I know a little about) These are most definitely
an Impulse Buy type of item. I think you would do very well at any of the trail festivals.
Good luck
No man should go through life without once experiencing healthy even bored solitude in the wilderness, finding himself depending solely on himself and thereby learning his true and hidden strength.
Are you making replicas of the signs or what? just curious. I know what others said, but I just wanted to know..

Consider creating a simple website which could be little more than a few words about yourself, some images of signs you've made and links to your eBay auctions. Considering what others link in their signatures, it may be completely acceptible to moderators, but I'd ask to be sure.
Make yourself useful in other ways by answering questions or starting a thread on an A.T.-related subject not specifically about your signs. A link to your website might be included in your signature. A good topic for a thread might even be "Favorite A.T. signs" to which you could contribute and from which you might even get some new ideas for signs to replicate.
Oftentimes, it's not so much what's posted, but rather how it's posted that's offensive or violates rules.

Advertising something that is AT related is certainly preferable to a lot of the crap that is spewed on this site.
You're cool. Doesn't bother me.
I'm not really a hiker, I just play one on White Blaze.
There was no one complaining in my post and I don't know why anyone who posts or moderates here should care what anyone from another A.T. forum thinks. People who prefer other forums might stay where they feel more comfortable and their posting style is appreciated.
The question raised by the post is really quite simple and it boils down to playing favorites and when someone should be expected to pay for advertising here. Unfortunately, when some attempt to reduce anything, they see nothing but a freedom of speech issue in the bottom of their pot.
