Y'all skinners with your own webpages ... what do you do for adding an email address for contact?
I got one on mine but I'm getting sick of the MASSIVE amounts of spam I'm getting. Sure, I got good filters in Tbird and Gmail ... but I shouldn't have to put up with it \:D

Any suggestions for 'hiding' an email address from the spammers but still able to get messages?

No really. Just make a statement on your webpage that says you frequent this forum, or another, and have them send you a PM for initial contact. That's about the only way I've found. The spammer scumbags can pretty much penetrate everywhere. Thankfully the moderators on these forums spend a good deal of their time cleaning out the nefarious and porn posts so we don't have to sift through the dribble.

My email is just on my site, as is.

I don't get particularly large amounts of spam - 2 or 3 a week, and they go straight to my junk box.
