I have quite a collection of Fiero resources that I have collected over the years. These resources range from wiring diagrams to manuals to 3D drawings for part design. I am currently organizing it in such a way that I can put it on a website. I guess my goal here is to do my version of Ogre’s Cave.

Hosting is not an issue, and getting a domain name is only a couple bucks. But before I go that route, I have to ask…do we need another Fiero website? I would be just as happy adding my resources to someone else’s site…but who should I talk to about this? Anyone have a site that they would like to expand? Just a warning…I would need full access to add my own information…this isn’t one where I can email it to you and ask you to upload it. Whatever system you are using (wordpress, joomla, drupal, raw HTML, etc), if I don’t already know it, I can become proficient quickly.

If I end up starting from scratch…what would you want to see in a Fiero resource site? My goal is not to compete with other sites, but to compliment them. For example, I would not have a message board on my site because there is no point in competing with PFF. It is easier to create a link than it is to create the content.

As far as merging into other sites, I would check with some of the larger Fiero clubs, Northern Illinois Fiero Enthusiasts comes to mind.
You could also contact the Oger.

I decided to do my own. The URL will be fiero.help (technically the domain is online, but the site isn't built yet).

I just found out last night that The Cave is offline. I have already reached out to Ogre to find out if he plans to bring it back, and if not I will try to get a copy of the data so that I can keep it available.

I asked previously when the Ogre's cove comcast url went offline. He is using the internet archive version of the site, & denied my request to do the same thing you are doing.
