Since they are always new users here, I thought that a guide would help if a guide to ファンポップ was created. So, without further a due, here we go!
GETTING STARTED
There are a few ways to get started here on Fanpop!
あなた can meet friends, 登録する a club, または make contributions! All of these are very easy to do, but the best place for new users is to find a club. There is a 検索 bar on the 上, ページのトップへ of your screen. If あなた can come up with a topic あなた are a ファン of, 検索 it and if there is a ファン club for it, あなた will see the link below the 検索 bar. Once あなた get to the club, hit the green button at the top. Congratulations! あなた have joined your first ファン club!
YOUR PAGE
Everyone on ファンポップ has their very own プロフィール page and it is easy to access your own. On the 上, ページのトップへ of your screen is a purple bar. Simply hit where it says "Profile" and あなた will be taken to your page. There are four major areas here: Information, Images, Clubs, and Wall. When あなた hit "Edit Profile", あなた will have the ability to add things to the Information section things such as where あなた live and your お気に入り things. On the 画像 section あなた will have access to add whatever pictures あなた like, find, または make. When あなた アップロード a picture, it can become your user アイコン as well! To do this, check off "Make This My User Icon" and tada! あなた now have an icon! The クラブ section is (obviously) a 一覧 of the ファン クラブ あなた are in. The ウォール is where other people can stop によって and tell あなた something. Now let's discuss something very chatty.
CHAT
あなた guessed it, the chat! This is a very easy place to meet people, 広告 your clubs, and just talk! The chat is conveniently located in the corner of your screen (at least for me) so あなた can talk while あなた browse. There are two parts of chat: Contacts and Rooms. Contacts shows あなた users that あなた have friended (which あなた do によって hitting add to friend 一覧 on their page) and they have friended あなた as well and are online. あなた hit their ユーザー名 to chat, and it is just the two of you. Contact chat also informs あなた when the other is typing または goes offline. To send your message, hit enter. あなた can hit the smiley face for emojis, but they will appear as text symbols until it is sent. Then there is Rooms. These consist of chat rooms which are easy to 登録する and start. To 登録する a chat room, hit its name. It won't tell あなた when others are typing, but other than that, same rules apply. To start a chat room, type in its name into the bar and hit "Join Room". Now あなた can discuss all kinds of things with other users and maybe make a friend または two along the way!
MAKING CONTRIBUTIONS
Wanna make a difference on Fanpop? Here's how. make soma contributions to a club または two. Find your お気に入り ファン club and add something fitting. Photos, videos, polls, forums, articles, クイズ questions, links, questions, and 回答 can be contributions. To add an image, save it to your computer and hit "Add Image" on the ファン club あなた want. For videos, do copy the URL of a YouTube video click on "Add Video", and paste it in. For both あなた must add a title, and descriptions and キーワード are optional. For articles, click on "Add Article". Where it says "Article Title", type in the タイトル of your article. Pick a kind of 記事 and type it where it says "Article Body". Add a 説明 and キーワード where it says so. 画像 are optional, but available when あなた click "Add Images". リンク are also very simple. Copy the URL of your site, then paste it in once あなた click "Add Link". For a forum, click on"Add Forum" once あなた click the フォーラム section of your ファン club. Type in your タイトル and the first post. Hit the camera アイコン for photos. To add a poll, click "Add Polls", type in your two choices, hit "Add もっと見る Choices" for もっと見る choices to add and when あなた type each choice, あなた will have the option to add a picture for that choice. For quizzes, questions, and 回答 most of these same rules apply. For every contribution あなた make, あなた will get some gold, which we will now discuss.
GOLD
Like I said, あなた usually get a piece of ゴールド for every contribution あなた make. あなた can find a link to your own ゴールド ショップ when あなた click "Customize Profile" on your profile. The もっと見る contributions あなた make, the もっと見る ゴールド あなた have and the もっと見る ゴールド あなた have, the もっと見る things あなた can buy! ゴールド is used to buy cool things for your プロフィール and (I think) let あなた vote in banner and アイコン polls.
MY SIMPLE DIAGRAMS
I made these for あなた guys so あなた can all see where all the buttons are and have a quick image of what あなた can do. They are basically screenshots of the site. There is much もっと見る things I can tell あなた about, but this is the beginners' essential kit. Who knows what あなた will do? Maybe あなた will even start a ファン club! Thanks for reading!
With Love,
