Hey there! I'm emerald_32, but you can call me Emerald or Em. Today I'll be showing you a quick tutorial I made on how to upload images.
So I've heard that a lot of users are having problems with the new image uploader. I have to say, it isn't really that complicated. For a 1-2 days it was for me, but I figured it out now. Since some don't, I'll be writing this article for that situation.

Please note that the browser that I use is Google Chrome, because it has some built-in plug-ins that are handy when surfing the net and uploading images.

Okay, let's get started. So, I want to upload two images on the linkclub. First thing I'll do is go to the club itself (of course, how can upload images when you're not on a club?), then go to the images section.
I prefer to go to the images section and pick which type of image I will upload, because if I pick the general one, sometimes some pictures get sent to the icon section.
I'd like to upload some fan art, so I'll go and click the "upload fan art" button.

So, I'll just press that....
So, I'll just press that....


As soon as I click it, the page goes to another one, the image-uploading page or whatever you call it.

...And the image-uploading page (or whatever you call it) comes! :D
...And the image-uploading page (or whatever you call it) comes! :D


It's important to know how many images you're able upload. If you don't have any medal at that spot yet, then you can only upload until 50 pictures. But, if you have a medal (dedicated, die-hard, fanatic, etc...), you're allowed to upload unlimited amounts of images.

So now, I'll upload an image.

I'll click "Browse to select images" and a pop-out will appear. From there, I'll select my photo. (When I upload pictures, I ignore the "Drag and Drop images here" box.) The picture will then appear underneath the "Browse to Select Images" button, like what is shown below.



And so I type up the information such as the name, description (I don't always add a description though), source/image credit, and tags (Tags and Image Credit is quite important. If you want to know who made the photo or what the source is, type up the needed info in the bar. Tags are also important because it well help people find the images you post faster.).

Remember when I said I wanted to post two pictures? I'll do that, too. Just repeat what you did with the first picture and type up the needed information.



Once you've finished that, click "All Done!"
Important: Make sure that all your pictures have finished loading. The green bar below a certain picture is the one that will indicate if it's done or not.

But wait! A pop-out come out saying that I have two unamed images. The minimum is 10 Characters, so it has to be 10 characters.



Here's a little something I'll tell you: spaces. Add extra spaces until you have 10 characters. Once you have 10 or more characters, press "All Done!" once again. Hopefully, it should work.

Once it's finished, it'll direct you back to the images page. Look to the section where you wanted the image to be. It should be there.



Alright, thank you for viewing this article. I hope it was helpful to you. Tell me if it did. I hope it worked, it took sometime in making this.
Thanks for viewing, and have a nice day~

ATTENTION: This is just a user opinion's on what could be cool for Fanpop.

1. Customize Profile: Everyone likes to have a nice profile homepage, so my first idea is we have a chance of customize our own profile, with backgrounds, colors, fonts etc...

2. Medal Meter: I think every Fanpopers like to know how much are they far to get a medal on the spot, so my 2nd idea is FP give us the chance to see if we are far or close to get our medal.

3. Profile Viewers: How many and what users did check our profile.

4. Comment Reply Notice: Be notice in you updates when someone reply you in a comment.

5. Possibility to Change User name: Sometimes people don't like their user names...a opportunity to change would be nice ;)

Hope You Enjoy It

No more nudity and disgusting images!!
No more nudity and disgusting images!!
Please don't post nude or indecent pictures in any spot. There are children on this website. Please don't post anything you wouldn't want your own kids to look at. If an actress is being made fun in a picture please don't post that in their spot. And you should know better than to post naked pictures of them also. There is a place for those images and it's called PerezHilton.com. It's disrecpectful to post inhumane pictures of an actress/actor in their spot. This is fanpop not hatepop. Another issue that has been irking me is duplicate images. I know I have accidently posted duplicates before...

I feel like it is time that I tell you how much you all mean to me and how Fanpop has changed my life. About a year ago I became a stay-at-home mom. Which was really a blessing, however a huge stressor in my life was the fact that I had essentially no adult interaction during the day and no way of really feeling validated. I found Fanpop one day while browsing for Office episodes online. I saw the picks and it looked so fun, that I just had to join! Since then I have spent hours everyday on Fanpop. It is my outlet for all the stresses of being a young mother who is nearly solely responsible...

Okay, first off, that title is a lie.

Based on the way things are going with the new club update feature so far, I thought we could use some guidelines. These are not official, they are merely suggestions on how to decide on a new icon or banner as a team. Only large clubs have the new suggestion options, so there are thousands of people there whose opinions count! (Not that smaller spots aren't valuable, you guys rock just as hard.) The suggested steps for changing a club's look are the same up until Step 3 for both large clubs with the new poll feature, and smaller ones with user-run polls...

The internet is losing the magical veil of interest it once held over you. You've been on all the really popular sites you already know about and have eventually grown board of them. Sure you type into your blog every now and then, but that's not enough to keep you online for more than ten minutes. After a while, you figure you might as well look for that episode of The Office you failed to record, and therefore missed last week.

You type the title of the episode into Google and browse through the first couple links that pop up. All of them are broken videos, or they have very poor quality...

This is merely an addition to Papa's fantastic soapbox article on link (a must-read) but some users have still been asking about editing a pick that they've made after they have published it. Here's a very basic how-to.


1. How the Pick's Creator can edit the pick:
If you want to add additonal choices to your options or images to them, all you need to do is look for and click on the pencil icon on the top of your pick. This will take you back to the pick creation page where you can freely add new options and image to your heart's desire.



2. How Voters can edit the pick:
If the creator allowed...

G'day awesome Fanpoppers!
I think this piece is really too short to be considered a proper article but I just wanted to give a *high five* to the newly introduced feature, Fanpop's Instant Messaging.
I became aware of this new feature less than 24 hours ago, I'm sure by now most of you guys also have it.
At first, I thought this was just a way of letting users know which other users were online at the same time. But no,it is far more awesome.
It's instant messaging between you and your Fanpop friends.
I love this already so much. I think I've spoken to about 30 or so different users/friends in...

Ways to help improve our fanpopping skills
Lately there's been a lot said and written in the way of articles,picks,etc about the so-called deterioration of the Fanpop site. This is not another heavy-handed article about user conduct or inappropriate behaviour. I do not happen to believe that flogging the same issues over and over again actually benefits the site or the fanpoppers. So all I've done is put together, in a light-hearted way, what I refer to as the '10 commandments' of Fanpop. Unlike the image, these commandments (tips) are not set in stone,lol, but I think they can be useful in helping one be a better Fanpopper.

1.)Thou...

50% of fanpoppers that took my pick 'Do you like the black background of fanpops homepage?' picked no.

I'm one of the fanpoppers that picked yes and i'll explain why.

The old background was okay, but its main colors were blue and green; two colors that don't go together. But the black background doesn't have any colors that do not match.

The black background is easier on the eye, more stylish and makes you feel more relaxed. The old background seems more tacky.

I'm sure that homepage will change back to its old blue and green theme as fanpoppers think the black background is 'against the spirit...

Yeah, you're like "OH MA GAWD FANPOP IS ON DA WIKI!!!!!! MUST EDIT!!!!"
Please. NO. Don't. First off, this exact same article has been deleted numerous times and this one may be short lived as well if you don't give NOTABLE info to it. Writing things like "LATINLOVER IS DA HOTTEST FANPOPPER" will not get us far. Here are some tips to keeping the article on Wikipedia for good this time:

-Make the article look authentic. Not being a Wikipedia wizz myself I had no idea how to add tables and the like to the article. If you're experienced at Wiki-ing it would be obliged very much if you give the...
