 Okay, so this idea has probably been tossed around before, but some other members and I thought it would be great to make this a reality. A separate site, an unofficial guide to Dogfight.
 
 This website would be written and maintained by the player community, and will stand as a reference to DF only. No socialization should take place there, it stands as a “view only” kind of site. It will contain any and all relevant information to playing Dogfight, from the basics (HUD, basic flying, bombing, landing, etc), a walkthrough of the Practice Missions, and most importantly, guides on playing online... all written from a collaboration of seasoned players.
 
 The forums is a great place for information and help, but organizing everything into a comprehensive guide, written by the experienced players themselves, would serve a great purpose in all its own.
 
 Now, this is going to be a separate project that will require the use of intellectual property in a second-party site. In no way must any of us receive profit from this. If Joaquin, or any other staff members issues a C&D, we must do exactly that. DF isn’t our property, and tI don't want to cause any infringement.
 
 To make it as simple as possible to create and maintain, we’ve decided to host this website on .Webs
 
 Ideas? Thoughts? Opinions?
 
 
 
===========
 This will have to be a big team effort, so if you would like to help out, see below.
 
 Administrators
 
 We need people to build, run, and maintain the website itself. An admin would have to be trustworthy and dependable, they have power and control over the entire website. Administrators write and organize the pages on the website and the project itself, and will be doing a great deal of computer time. Admins will be in charge of final-checking pages before they are published on the site. Admins must be familiar with computers and word processing. Also, as of current, each administrator must have a Google Drive account, to be able to publish pages on the site. An administrator will have a lot of responsibility, and there will be a limited number of them. If you are serious about helping, and want to be an admin of this project, post so on this thread, and we will look into it.
 
 Writers
 
 This will make up the majority of the workforce in the building of this website. Loads of content needs to be written for this guide. Output needs to be thorough, and well-written (See the alpha pages of the guide for examples of what we need). Proper grammar/syntax, as well as a good knowledge of the game itself is needed. If you are interested in helping write a specific part of the guide, post on this thread. We will give you instructions on what needs to be written.
 
 Photographers
 
 To make this guide good, we need screenshots, and good ones, too. If you spend a lot of time in-game, and wouldn’t mind taking some useful pictures every now and then, this would be a nice position. We need specific pictures, so there will be specific missions/game modes that will need to be photographed. If you are interested, post on this thread.
 
 We need all the help we can get to make this work! If you have any ideas -- anything at all, post them here, too!
