When it comes to writing your Fanon, I think in the planning stage, just focus on determining which characters you're working with and who they are as people. Think about what their backstories are and get a broad sense of who they'd be friends with, and who their enemies are. You don't need to do anything specific right away, the more specific details can be added in later to flesh out your story. It is at this point where I would write your profiles for your characters as well.

Once you know who your characters are, you can divide them into tribes, and think about who they may align with, etc. I always draft my boot order vote by vote, starting with very broad details and bullet points about what happens in each episode, starting by just putting in major details. Once you have an initial draft of your boot order, you can look it over and start filling in the gaps and fleshing out the story. If you want to revise your first draft at this point, feel free. :)

When it comes to publishing, I find that it can help to write out skeletons of each episode (the major bullet points of events), and then write the episode out in full to publish it. I never get too specific in episode planning (for example, I don't know how many confessionals each person will have before I start writing), but enough that you feel comfortable moving forward with the story.

Our policy page is the place to start to learn how to edit on this site and set up your pages. There are some tips and templates on that page to help you, and you can also see there the rules on our site that all users must follow.

In terms of the coding, 90% of us learn through copying and pasting coding from other fanons. It took me months to get the hang of it, and I still find myself copying and pasting lots, to be completely honest. There is a "preview" option for mobile and desktop so you can see what the page will look like before you click "publish." If you ever need help with the coding, feel free to leave a message on any admin's wall. That is part of why we are here. It's totally normal to need help and ask lots of questions, especially when it comes to coding, so don't let that discourage you.

Logos are not a requirement for a Fanon - just something a lot of people like to have. If you want to make your own, a lot of people that have them use photoshop or some variant of it. I do not have photoshop, so I use paint.net to colour the logo in, and I use PowerPoint to put the pictures and WordArt on the logo itself.
