Everyone can follow the sign-up process and create an account. As soon as you sign up, you will be considered a spectator and you can follow players (designers) and like their shots (work), however, in order to post shots you have to declare yourself as a prospect, but not everyone will be able to. To become a playerand upload your own shots you need to get known in the community and be drafted by a Dribbble member. So basically you need to interact with other designers since being followed by a member will work as a recommendation within the community.

This is indeed a new work process in the social media world but it definitely works to keep and maintain quality within the community. Dribbble basically tells you that everyone can watch the concert but not everyone can or know how to sing. However that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t give it a try, does it? These PSDs are perfect way to start out. Examine them, play with them, reconstruct them and, who knows, maybe one day you’ll be the next rockstar of Dribbble.
