Some of you may have joined fanpop and are new and really don't know much about it. Well, of course fanpop is a fun place to join fan clubs of pretty much any thing you like. Many people love fanpop and it's really hard to not to like it. So when your joining fanpop stay on a bit and just go to your fave spot and just chill answering picks and videos.

Since there are alot of people on fanpop you may go to someones profile and wonder what something is like a prop. It will take a little time until you get a prop (s) but until then just add videos,picks,pictures,quiz questions,links,forums or articles...

This section of my Fanpop User Guide describes how to create a club on Fanpop, and was last substantively edited on 4 June 2013.

Creating a club

Determining need
So, you are a fan of some topic and want to post a bunch of links for it, right? Before you create a club for it, you need to make sure that there isn't already a club that covers that territory. Duplicate clubs get reported and may eventually be removed from the site, so this is important: always perform a thorough search for your topic before you create a new club!

At least two searches should...

"Journeyman" videos in the travel spot. *sigh* (image credit to Cinders)
Ok, this is getting a tweee bit ridiculous. And before I start off, I know this has been discussed before, I'm just refreshing everybody's mind.
Yesterday, I was fanpoping. I come across the link spot- And went to videos. link is what I saw. There were apple pie videos there. Submitted by Hulu.
link are some images by other fanpopers reporting this.

Hulu's videos should NOT be done by a webcrawler. (or whatever you call it) Dave, either have a manual team do hulu's videos, or dont do it at all.

EDIT: as amazondebs says in the comments, Fanpop isen't even getting paid for hulu's videos. What is the purpose of having them here?

(Another) EDIT: more of this maddness. and in link spot!

Finding a spot
There are three primary ways to find spots that fit your interests, which is really the whole point of the site.
The first (examples are marked with "1" in the illustration) is by reading the lists on the main page of the site ('fanpop home'): it's entirely possible that some content displayed there is of interest to you, whether it be a spotlit spot,...

Creators of Fanpop,

This really is a fantastic site, it is like a
cooler, safer Facebook in my opinion. But, there
has been a decline in users, and not any increase. One thing is the new default style is less user friendly and a lot of people don't like it. So, you could make the old fanpop style the default style, or make the option to change to it more obvious. There is also the issue of a lack of advertisement; I had literally never known or even seen anything about this site until late March this year. I have never seen an ad for this website in my life. If it is to expensive or the ads just aren't being shown in a lot of places you could at least encourage people to share it with others.
Of course these user-names may already be taken. If so, then just add a number/nickname on the end. Or you can take some words, re-arrange and improvise:)
The ones with the * beside them are my favourites:)

Of all of my peeves, this definitely bugs me the most. It's like if you're gonna pick a fight then at least have the decency to keep your original post. Don't call someone names, wait for them to fight back, and then edit your comment to subtract the insults so you can look like you didn't do anything wrong. It's just the most cowardly and kind of annoying thing to do. At least when I throw an insult I have the balls to leave it up and the respect to acknowledge that it may have not been the nicest thing to say and be up front about my snarkiness. People like that are why I have to screencap...

Kidding as usual. Actually, it's Sunday and I have some spare time on my hands so I thought I would write up some points I think need changing with the new layoot and I invite you to CONSTRUCTIVELY make your points in the comments. My idea behind this is to have a collection of concerns that we can show the F4. This way instead of ranting and going "OMG I HATE DIS!" we can make ourselves heard. I know the F4 are awesome and have listened to us in the past. Remember the wall debacle? Remember how they changed the layoot after we pointed it oot? Remember how they brought back the forums?

EXACTLY!...

Hello =)

Sit down, shut up and listen to my (pretty much) unnecessary but still quite fun idea #401.
You may laugh afterwards.
But now...Silence and pay attention!

Disclaimer: Yes I admit it, I didn't come up with this idea on my own, I saw something similar years ago on a german website.

Here we go...
POPCOINS
Popcoins are virtual fanpop money.
The idea came to my mind when I was thinking about a possibility to change one's username without being able to change it all the time and without having to pay real money.

This is how popcoins would work:
There would be a popcoin symbol right next to where the...

So, you've found Fanpop, are at least intrigued by what you've seen, and want more. So, now what?

First of all, if you haven't already, you will want to link for the following reasons:

1)Spots: once you've registered and logged in, you can create a personalized list of spots that match your unique interests. In addition, if you can't find the spot that fits you, you can create your own!

2)Ratings: Rating the content on fanpop is the engine that drives the site, and you can only rate things once you've registered and logged in.

3)Picks: Only logged-in users can answer any of the questions on the...

This section of my Fanpop User's Guide covers links, the lifeblood of Fanpop, and was last substantively edited on 4 June 2013.

So, you've registered on the site and now you want to add some content to your favorite spots. The vast majority of the stuff on fanpop is in the form of links which point to content in other places, whether they are articles, galleries, videos, games, or any other sort of content you can find online.

Check before you add!
Any time that you are about to add content to Fanpop, you should check first to make sure that the content isn't already linked from the site (at least...

Today on June 6th, The Meebo bar was not working. Many fans could not log on and all of them thought that it was a glitch or a fail. But then, according to snakemanfan, Google shut down Meebo permanently to work on Google+. It is totally damn stupid. I know that many people use the meebo bar in order for chatting on Fanpop and other stuff, But this is just sad. Google want to dominate the whole internet. Just because Google+ is being updated just does not mean that you have to shut down the Meebo bar permanently. So today, We have to say our Final Words to the Meebo bar as it shuts down forever.

This will be a really sad thing for users who have used the Meebo Bar. I really do not know if they will replace it or bring it back, But for now, Meebo is gone, Forever. :( :( :(

NOTE: I wrote all of this on my tablet.
Yeah, I know this is kinda lame, but this is all I could think up! :'(

Just go to an article, (or look the person who you want to message up) and click their name near the top. Fanpop will show you their profile page and scroll down until you find the "Message" tab. Click it and ...voila!

Just type your message and send it. If they message you back, your inbox will tell you! Try it!

Sorry if this was lame! :(

But please remember to

Hello Fanpoppers. I know this article is late but figured I should still post it in the event that I hit on something that hasn't been covered by one of your fellow fanpoppers in an earlier article or forum post (however unlikely that might be).

Here's a little bit of insight into some of the new things that you might have run into on Fanpop in the past few weeks...




Video and image embeds
You can now embed a video or image in your initial forum post (and all of the subsequent replies). Just look for the "add an image" or "embed a video" link on the forum submission form. Each post is limited...

Okay, so Hulu has become a real problem recently, with misplaced videos. I know there is already an article. But I wanted to express my own views. Here are links to misplaced videos. Get the Hulu user off of Fanpop!

1.link

2.link

3.link

4.link

5.link

6.link

7.link

8.link

9.link

10.link

11.link

Okay, so there are ten links of misplaced videos. But thats nothing. Hulu has uploaded hundreds of videos, and many of them are misplaced. If you find a link to a misplaced video, put it in the comments. Maybe, just maybe, we can get rid of Hulu.

Why do i love fanpop, i just don't know i find i hard to figure out and o my god i can't think. It must be somthing but what. I can't get it out of my mind. Well my first idea was that is could be some of the funny and brilliant videos i watch, it could be. Was it the amazingly good soapbox's people take time to write, could be.

Hmmm i don't seem to be geting any further into understanding why i love fanpop, i still can't get it out of my mind. HELP!!! i keep thinking. Is it the funny and insightful comments people take time to write, could be. Is it the forum's that we all play game's and...

Now that more clubs have the ability to create official icon & banner picks, I thought my link on the subject could use a little revision.

Why does it matter, you ask? It's important to remember that fanpop is a community, and should do things as a group. Randomly starting a poll for a new icon, banner or background is rude to other club members. Making icons and banners takes time, and the first options (likely made by the person who started the poll) are given the unfair advantage of being there the longest. Early voters aren't likely to check back in every day to see if new options have...

You all have probably gone to a fellow fanpopper's profile and wondered how they made it look to good. Some of us have no idea how to do it. I myself had to asked my amazing girlfriend (link) how she created hers. So, we came up with a great idea to write a how-to article. :D

This is one of these sleepless nights in which I can't sleep but I'm too sleepy to study, so I end up doing something completely pointless instead of trying to sleep, like looking up some nice fanpop usernames that aren't taken yet.
Bold ones are my favorites.
