Here's a typical first post (In this case, Julia Lipnitskaya):
She is so great! I hope she'll make the gpf and WIN it haha...

Later some mod may come by and do a Summer Fan Fest Fete Update and put in lots of links to vids and articles, but you needn't put in any links at all in your first post unless you want to. BTW, Getting this kind of an update is one of the benefits of starting a Fan Fest.
