I have a pet peeve.

As a writer, I have found my stuff postato on other websites without my permission, and sometimes without so much as a mention that it was MY article... o 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 articoli 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 foto credit when te invia an image is there for a reason. It is to protect fanpop from massive headaches later on, and te from being sued.

te might cerca for immagini on Google, but that is not who to credit. When te find the image te want, there is a url under it when te click on the image. From there it is easy to find the name of who owns that image. If it is not cited, then te 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, più and più people are going to be taking notice. They are going to see their immagini 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 o publisher of the book. That is way-easy to do. In the case of foto of stars and what have you, the photographer is the way to go, unless te can't find that info, then like I said; cite the website te found it on, o the star.

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

Thank you, Drive through.

Let me tell te 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 o what and thought it was one of those many sites like twitter and Facebook.

Browsing some più I accidentally landed on someone's profilo page and scrolling down say there were pic's looking like cubes. On superiore, in alto there were titled 'Clubs'.

I noticed a familiar icona 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 quiz and took part.

Than I released that te had to sign up to record what te 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 o 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 te may not no this but if te have a mac te can only carica five immagini at one time onto fanpop.

Most of te probably don't care because te have a PC o don't carica immagini that much.

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

I know te can open loads of tabs but then again it is più 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 te joke and say I should have a PC o whatever, then very funny but no.

This articolo 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 fan of topics that interest te 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 te can call it that) that I wrote about fanpop. Believe it o not this actually took a long time. It is really difficult to find words that start with P. Let me know if te 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 articoli but now I'm fed up! Can anyone please enlighten me because I am confused. What is the problem if I o anybody else posts più links/videos/images than another fan? If I happen to be the one with the most links/videos/images o whatever on fanpop that is because I like helping out the website. It doesn't make any sense for people to feel jealous o attack me o other people for posting più 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...

It was just about one anno fa that link and I were having our regular lunch meetups downtown in the Financial District of San Francisco. Years fa 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 preferito hole in the wall, the International Cibo Court on the corner of cespuglio, bush 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 o another. I first found out about fanpop when I did a Google Image cerca 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 modifica your commento to subtract the insults so te can look like te 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 te can be my co-writer i would Amore that but te have to be good like not basic, te know how when people push the story too fast...

Example for some of te dumbass trifflin culo cunt culo 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 da a car trying to see an old friend a attraversare, croce the strada, via 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 articolo "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 da step guide on how to with images, yay! (there is a little thing in the faq but people seem to relate to immagini better)

Step 1: Make sure te are on the fanpop main page

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

Step 3: Scroll down till te 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 profilo 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 o close to get our medal.

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

4. commento Reply Notice: Be notice in te aggiornamenti when someone reply te 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 te Enjoy It

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

I feel like it is time that I tell te how much te all mean to me and how fanpop has changed my life. About a anno fa 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 giorno and no way of really feeling validated. I found fanpop one giorno 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...
