Personally I think it is fine to suggest html that includes a text link back to a site. Its off topic sure, but it is visible. The people who say "if i’d have examined the source code I wouldn’t have included it" obviously haven’t looked at their website and realised that there is a link there. That link isn’t hidden.What I do think is pushing it is having the alt text of the image also saying cash advance (or whatever). The alt text should be there to help people who for whatever reason can’t see the image to understand what is going on.... To hijack (and change the argument of) the previous discussion thats the poor user experience. Try browsing with images turned off..
