It's easy enough to display your snocap store on Fan Club Helper. Just cut and paste the code they give you labeled for HTML and blogs into any profile field. The problem right now is that users need to view the extended profile to see the store. You can add a widget to display on the front page of the profile, but it's only one column wide and won't display the entire snocap interface. When Elgg supports widgets that are two columns wide the problem will be solved. For now, I need to find a work-around.

I'm in the process of testing this installation, adding some test users, and asking people to critique the site. Something I've noticed, and has been confirmed by others, is that the navigation is not intuitive. The top navbar is set off from the design, and doesn't have all of the links that you'd want. An example of what I'd expect would be:

 Home | Edit Profile | Search Users | Search Communities

Something like that.
