How do I do this...?

First, let me start off by saying I know an extremely small amount of HTML, CSS, and PHP. In fact, it's almost non-existent. I am not sure if I posting this in the correct spot. We have a fan site for celebrities. What we'd like to do is to allow members to register and then be able to create their own fan page. With s2 the registration part is easy, but how do we allow them access to the wp-admin area, but protect our main admin area? Also, when we activated the s2 plugin, created the log in and member options page, when you go to log into the site and select login, it brings you to the member options page. How do I fix that? The website is fanz-sitez.com. Thank you all in advance.

If you want users to be able to signup and automatically create content on your site, I would work on getting that functioning first. Then try to add s2Member into the mix. WordPress, by default, has level based permissions, not content based permissions. Meaning, if a user can delete one page, they can delete all pages. So you'll need to figure out what kind of content the users can add, and how they'll be restricted. You might be able to use WordPress in multisite mode for something like this.

What GDLTD is sound.
I'm sure that others created a website that works in a similar way to what you want, so a good Google search or in the WP plugins directory should help you find a way to achieve it.
One of the plugins you could check is User Role Editor.
