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 site.

4)Comments: You can't place a comment in a forum, enter a response to a link, or critique a video unless you're logged in.

5)Personalizing your profile: This can't be done unless you are logged in (you don't even have a profile unless you've registered).

6)Fans: Once you've logged in, you can pick users that you like for their content and say you are a "fan" of theirs. Then, you can jump from your profile to their profiles to see what content they've provided to the site.

7)New content: Once you've logged in, you can create your own spots, questions, soapbox articles, as well as uploading video links/images and linking to other worthwhile content on the web.

8)Saving your favorite links: The site provides a way to save the content that you really like to your profile.

I'll assume from this point on that you have registered and have logged in.
