If you are a new user, fanpop may be confusing at first. But here are some tips for the new, confused user:

Number 1: Have fun:
Fanpop is for fun. Join a spot, create a spot, Just have fun. Fanpop is a stress-free site, so don't worry about anything.

Number 2: NO SPAM!: Don't be an internet troll. Only get one account, and be nice to other people.

Number 3: Contribute, contribute, contribute.
Contribute images, videos, links, articles, and more! If fans like what they see, they may become a fan of you.

Number 4: Expeirienced users:
Look out for expeirienced users, and contact them when you have a question about fanpop

Number 5: SEARCH!: search for any topic you are interrested in, example, if you like pizza, search pizza! if you can't find what you are looking for, create a spot.
Just go to fanpop home and click on create a spot!

Number 6: be careful of what you say.
Be careful of giving out personal info, and don't say mean things.
Remember, this is the internet, not school.

Hope that will help!

Also, if you're going to upload picture/videos/whatever remember to use awesome keywords, credit the right person, and add a description if you feel up to it!
I'm still not perfect at those things, but I'm trying my best and it would be nice to know everyone else is trying too! :]

You can also search for "Fanpop User Guide" to see a series of articles that a few of us have written explaining how to use some of the features on the site.
