Your self promoting on this site may not be allowed…  
But your site is really really great, looks good, nice funtionality. I could see this being very helpful to budding and advanced musicians. Nicely done.

I _think_ he was just sharing a link of a site that he is using, not a site that he actually built.  
**propeller** , if you are just posting a link to a site you like to use, you certainly aren’t breaking any rules. What **da\_pope** was referring to would be if you ran the site and were promoting it here (for profit). That sort of thing is frowned on, but sharing interesting/useful information here is not against the rules.

yeah, i might have misread. If you’re using that site to help you learn guitar/piano, keep using it as a referance, it’s very well made.

If you made that site, my hats off to you, it’s really well done.  
It does appear to be 100% free, and I didn’t even see any ads. I don’t know what the rules are regarding self promoting non commercial sites.

Either way, I do appreciate it being brought to my attention, I’ll be using it to brush up on some chord fingerings.
