Just a few helpful guidelines for new & old users that will help keep Fanpop fantastic:
1. Upload a Профиль image. Find an image of Ты или of something that represents Ты and Загрузить it as your user icon. This should be especially easy now that there are perfectly-sized Иконки (100x100) in almost every spot there for Ты to use. Otherwise Ты are just another green face in the crowd!
2. Rate Видео and links. It's quick & easy, those who add Видео and Ссылки will appreciate your honest opinions/ratings, and it is yet another way for Ты to leave your mark on Fanpop!
3. Proofread picks. Have fun with making picks (Lord knows I do!) but please make sure to double-check all spelling and grammar before pressing the "submit" button. We all make the occasional mistake дана that there is no way to fix them (myself included) after submitting picks but that is no excuse for repeat offenders! Remember:
- you're = "you are"
- your = the possessive (ex: "Your Видео are great!")
- it's = "it is"
- its = the possessive
- who's = "who is" (Who's noticing a grammar-related trend?)
- whose = the possessive (ex: "Whose clothes are better on Sex & the City?")
4. Flag broken videos. If a video или link is not working или is no longer available, please flag it as broken/outdated/etc. Many users who add Видео have added so many that they can't revisit them all to make sure they are still working. Really, you're not being rude! On the other hand, it does get admittedly annoying to receive Комментарии saying something along the lines of "please put the video back on". It is neither the user nor Fanpop taking the Видео off. It is the original hosting site (Veoh, Youtube, etc) who has removed the video, and so, please, simply flag the video.
I hope no one takes these guidelines the wrong way. My intentions are good, these are only the helpful tips I have thought of (please share your suggestions if Ты believe I have left something off of the list) and if we all follow the guidelines, Fanpop will remain the fantastic, addictive website that it is today!
