I have a pet peeve.

As a writer, I have found my stuff Опубликовано on other websites without my permission, and sometimes without so much as a mention that it was MY article... или a link back to the original. This ticks me off, and it is illegal to do so.

I have not come across this on Fanpop with Статьи yet, but I have seen it numerous times on images.

Some of the people I adore the most are even doing it. I have to assume innocence here and figure some folks just don't know... so I'ma tell ya ;)

Credit. Credit. Credit. The option to add the фото credit when Ты Отправить an image is there for a reason. It is to protect Fanpop from massive headaches later on, and Ты from being sued.

Ты might Поиск for Обои on Google, but that is not who to credit. When Ты find the image Ты want, there is a Ссылка under it when Ты click on the image. From there it is easy to find the name of who owns that image. If it is not cited, then Ты need to cite that website in the credit to protect both yourself and Fanpop.

Not citing the copyright owner is theft, pure and simple. Besides, it is just the right thing to do.

As Fanpop grows, еще and еще people are going to be taking notice. They are going to see their Обои were taken without citing the owner. We do not want that kind of trouble around here.

In the case of movie and book covers, cite the studio или publisher of the book. That is way-easy to do. In the case of фото of stars and what have you, the photographer is the way to go, unless Ты can't find that info, then like I said; cite the website Ты found it on, или the star.

Please please please make the effort to do this. I do not want to see the день that Dave and Papa are forced to waste time removing thousands and thousands of Обои because we did not take the time to do it right and legally...

Thank you, Drive through.

Let me tell Ты how I first discovered fanpop. (Just bored so thought I'd write this)

I was on the net looking for pictures. I then came across a site (Which is this one really) and clicked the link.
I never knew what this site was или what and thought it was one of those many sites like twitter and Facebook.

Browsing some еще I accidentally landed on someone's Профиль page and scrolling down say there were pic's looking like cubes. On вверх there were titled 'Clubs'.

I noticed a familiar Иконка of my favourite actor and clicked on it.

It was cool, it was like a website just full of that actors info.

I noticed they had Тесты and took part.

Than I released that Ты had to sign up to record what Ты got right/wrong etc.

Thats when I decided to log on and realised I was SOOO ADDICTED TO IT!

(Hey I don't even spend so0 much time like this on Facebook!)

So that was how I discovered Fanpop-not to dramatic или interesting, but i found my rabbit hole.

Whats yours?

This is one of these sleepless nights in which I can't sleep but I'm too sleepy to study, so I end up doing something completely pointless instead of trying to sleep, like looking up some nice Fanpop usernames that aren't taken yet.
Bold ones are my favorites.

Some of Ты may not no this but if Ты have a mac Ты can only Загрузить five Обои at one time onto fanpop.

Most of Ты probably don't care because Ты have a PC или don't Загрузить Обои that much.

It didn't really get on my nerves before, but now I want to Загрузить Герои screencaps to the Герои spot which I have a die-hard medal in and I know PC users can Загрузить much еще than five Обои at a time; especially if they have a die hard medal in the spot they want to Загрузить in.

I know Ты can open loads of tabs but then again it is еще work and annoying.

It's unfair on people who like to contribute anyway, so I hope there is some change in the image uploader for mac users.

P.S. If Ты joke and say I should have a PC или whatever, then very funny but no.

This Статья describes two different kinds of feedback to the Fanpop staff that are often confused for one another, and was last edited on 28 October 2008.

Feedback on the web site
Like any commercial software enterprise, web sites provide a product to their customers. In Fanpop's case, the product is a great site for joining together with other Фаны of topics that interest Ты in order to share quality content and make friends. But as with any product, feedback is very important to both maintain and improve the product. But feedback for maintaining the site is fundamentally different than feedback...

Here is a little poem (if Ты can call it that) that I wrote about fanpop. Believe it или not this actually took a long time. It is really difficult to find words that start with P. Let me know if Ты guys come up with anything better :) Ok Dave, Papa, Cliff, and Michael this one's for you!

Okay, first of all I don't write these Статьи but now I'm fed up! Can anyone please enlighten me because I am confused. What is the problem if I или anybody else posts еще links/videos/images than another fan? If I happen to be the one with the most links/videos/images или whatever on Fanpop that is because I like helping out the website. It doesn't make any sense for people to feel jealous или attack me или other people for posting еще content than them. That is the most absurd reason to get angry. I am posting content mainly to help out the website but I also know that some people on here...

Plugging away at our laptops
It was just about one год назад that link and I were having our regular lunch meetups downtown in the Financial District of San Francisco. Years назад we shared a cube in Santa Clara at Yahoo! where we first met. Now we were being reunited just a few blocks away from one another and having lunch like old times. We decided to pay a visit to our Избранное hole in the wall, the International Еда Court on the corner of куст, буш and Kearny Streets. Most people would never have spotted this joint and even if they had they would pick up their pace and keep on walking. Being the adventurous (and cheap) guys...

Ten years ago, Fanpop made its presence on the Internet and people joined the site one way или another. I first found out about Fanpop when I did a Google Image Поиск on "link". That was back in May 2010, in which I signed up for the site as CHILDISHY; now I use my ReptarZolo account to match with my current DeviantArt account. All those years, Fanpop became cluttered with various types of violative content, including and especially pornography. With only four admins, I don't believe Fanpop will last any longer; this can be prevented if the admins promote some users, preferably those they trust, to become moderators and help clean up the site.
Of all of my peeves, this definitely bugs me the most. It's like if you're gonna pick a fight then at least have the decency to keep your original post. Don't call someone names, wait for them to fight back, and then Редактировать your Комментарий to subtract the insults so Ты can look like Ты didn't do anything wrong. It's just the most cowardly and kind of annoying thing to do. At least when I throw an insult I have the balls to leave it up and the respect to acknowledge that it may have not been the nicest thing to say and be up front about my snarkiness. People like that are why I have to screencap...

Ok so I'm sooo sorry If I waited to long to do the story I SWEAR! that i'm going to do it tomorrow i'm so sorry. I have to many problems and i'm very emotional the last couple of days and it's a big problem with my family and i'm very sad but i really will start the story I swear! I cant really tell u about my family issues but I need someone to talk to. But on the other hand if Ты can be my co-writer i would Любовь that but Ты have to be good like not basic, Ты know how when people push the story too fast...

Example for some of Ты dumbass trifflin жопа, попка cunt жопа, попка bitches: Yolanda dated this boy named Prince then he bullied her then he liked her afterwards the got married had a baby named Rolanda and Prince got hit by a car trying to see an old friend a пересекать, крест the улица, уличный 2 years later Yolanda sold Rolanda n got on crack,died, and lived happily ever after with Prince in heaven.
[note: when I first made this Статья "clubs" were called "spots" so just imagine anything that says "spot" actually says "club" ;)]

Well it seems like people are always asking how so here is a step by step guide on how to with images, yay! (there is a little thing in the Вопросы и ответы but people seem to relate to Обои better)

Step 1: Make sure Ты are on the Fanpop main page

Step 2: Поиск for the spot first so there are no duplicates (if not then go back to the main page)

Step 3: Scroll down till Ты see this image and click "create new spot"

Step 4: Type in the name of the spot...

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

1. Customize Profile: Everyone likes to have a nice Профиль 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 или close to get our medal.

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

4. Комментарий Reply Notice: Be notice in Ты Обновления when someone reply Ты 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 Ты Enjoy It

 No еще nudity and disgusting images!!
No more nudity and disgusting images!!
Please don't post nude или indecent pictures in any spot. There are children on this website. Please don't post anything Ты 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 Ты should know better than to post naked pictures of them also. There is a place for those Обои 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 Опубликовано duplicates before...

I feel like it is time that I tell Ты how much Ты all mean to me and how Fanpop has changed my life. About a год назад 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 день and no way of really feeling validated. I found Fanpop one день 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...
