Default Fan Fic Idea

So, I have finally decided to throw my hat into the fan fic ring.

I have a solid idea, an approach that suits my writing style, and insanity.

What I lack are some resources.

Is there a TOS online bible anywhere? I also need some system maps of the BSG universe and tech specs of ships and other tech.

I would also like some pictures and diagrams. Specifically of Caprica and Kobol...bith original shots from the show and quality fan artwork inspired by the original series.

Thanks for any advisement of resources in advance.

There was no actual series bible. The original writer's guide used to be in the data files at www.kobol.com

Here's some quick resources:

Battlestar Galactica Original Costume and Prop Museum
Besides photos of original Battlestar Galactica items, check out the series writer's guide, an article about Cylon origins, plus many other features, interviews, and chat transcripts. http://www.kobol.com (mirrored at http://www.chrispappas.com ) (Chris Pappas)

Battlestar Zone
Home to the Battlestar Concordance: if there is a Colonial term you want defined or you want the information about any location or people group named in the series: this is the place to go. Also a wealth of other articles and interviews. http://www.geocities.com/sjpaxton/ (Susan Paxton)

Battlestar Galactica Technical Manuals
Curious about Colonial Fleet ships, weapons, or engine systems? this is the site for you. Explores the "real" science and technology behind the popular TV series, with specs and info on ships, weapons, engines, and of course the Cylons. Also has a nice gallery of CGI BSG art. http://www.tecr.com/galactica/index.html (Tigerclaws)
