Passwords
Dear all,
since recently a couple of old accounts got hacked on this Forum, probably due to weak passwords, I want to encourage all of you to use strong passwords!

Re: best tanteidan?
Ordering Tanteidan Books is best done via the origamihouse website directly from the JOAS in Japan: http://origamihouse.jp/book/original/house.html
They also show the pictured index of each available book, so you can browse through and decide for yourself which models appeal to you.

Re: Need help for proof-folding my Diagrams
Thank you for the offer Valerio_C. The parrot and mole look really cute. Unfortunately I'm really short on time, otherwise I would have loved to fold them.

Re: Paper question???
@DViener Welcome on board. Could you maybe link to a video where you've seen this paper? It's a bit difficult to say what kind of paper it might be if I don't know a specific video it is used in. @Gerardo, instead of sending people away, you could welcome them and try to help solve their question. J...

Re: Monthly Folding and other Challenges Archive
Dear Andre-4 the forum once was a place full of Origami enthusiasts that heavily interacted with each other, as was the Origami Mailing List that as its best times saw up to fifty Mails a day. Times change and so do people and the internet. The people who run the Forum all do it voluntarily without ...

Re: Papers - White glue, “mousse” glue
You can use diluted white glue but the behaviour of the glue and the outcome is very different than with MC. If you want to try it again at your local paper store ask for the paste that is used to make Papier-mâché. Another possibility is to visit a hardware store and look out for wallpaper paste, t...

Re: Folding with newspaper
Many years ago, I had the opportunity to fold with plain unprinted newspaper paper. I could have gotten a huge roll of this stuff, alas it was hell to fold. The paper was of inferior quality ripping easily and holding no fold. Inverting creases was near to impossible. The only good thing was that it...

Re: The World of Super Complex Origami- In english?
New users need to have three posts manually approved by a Moderator until they are allowed to send PMs, that's to prevent Spammers from flooding the Forum with Spam-PMs. So have a look around, maybe show us some of your folds comment some posts and then try again.

Re: MS PowerPoint as a diagramming tool?
I absolutely disagree, MSPaint is way worse than PowerPoint or Word since it is pixel oriented opposed to vector oriented like Word and PowerPoint. My recommendation would be to learn Inkscape. It is free, has all the tools needed to draw good diagrams and there are plenty tutorials out there how to...

Re: broken links under "Origami Model Search"
Thanks for the info, but I'm not going to fix it. With a Forum that runs for more than twenty years, it happens that links break as sources vanish from the Internet. Cleaning up the Forum from all broken links would be almost impossible. We have hundreds of topics and thousands of posts with uncount...

Re: MS PowerPoint as a diagramming tool?
Many years ago I drew a diagram in Microsoft Word: http://www.origami.at/diagrams/tie_fighter.pdf Like Brimstone said it uses basically the same drawing tools as PowerPoint, yet again they changed quite a bit over the years. It is a vector oriented drawing program and therefore serves the purpose of...

Re: Pocket Tissue Holder
So, I rotated the paper and now it is way easier to close the top. I think the paper used could be a little bigger like 27x27 cm but for now I only tried with 25x25 cm as this is what I had at hand. The design is far from perfect but works as intended. Here is a short photo guide https://photos.app....
