I like supporting people, but because I'm wide in the market I don't want to give precedence to Amazon when my other platforms provide me with as much or more income combined. So, I worked out a system that gave me a good looking signature line, but put the reader into a choice of platforms. If they then choose amazon, it will always take them to Amazon and the Amazon code will be applied. If they go to Apple, then Apple's code and so on etc., etc.
It means joining Books2read.com (Draft2Digital's software for their site links) and putting all of your books up there, but if you do you end up with the following code (I've deliberately chosen to route the images via my website because I change covers frequently and it's easier to switch). I've also reduced them to the specific size I wanted for here to reduce any coding issues now, or later).

I hope this helps those people out there who don't like promoting Amazon.
