Hi.
I have been working on a few new projects, and since I have now ventured pretty far into commercial DIY territory,I would like to ask the forum, if its ok to post new threads for project discussion on groupdiy.com. I am not asking the community to support my projects (even if participation is always nice, of course), but I am not sure if even having the threads here constitutes commercial spam on this open user forum
I tried setting up a little sub-page with a forum on my own site with links in the various projects to get out of everyones way here, but it seems people are still using this forum when they have problems. I imaging "everything at one place" is more convenient for the builders + they avoid having to go through the sign-up to yet another forum.
Everything I have done threads for thus far has been projects done "for" the forum (there even was a time when I didn't really make money on it, other than what my family gave me in PCB discounts), and the latest few were home-etch friendly (I posted artwork), but now, I have a 4 layer PCB on offer, which you would have to be a magician to home etch, which means theres no way of doing the project without putting money in my pocket. This seems like a different situation to me, which is why I want to ask.
Thoughts?
Gustav
