easy origami links, and blog template changeups…

I really, really don’t like blogs. web pages I like, but the whole “blog” concept with a gazillion useless tacky bits on the page annoys me. So since my previous template was geting stranger and stranger in how it didn’t work, I’m cheating and just pasting in someone else’s nicely pre-made template. my bad. I don’t think the 2 people who even look at this site care that much 🙂 Seriously though, a lot of you keep coming here because you’re doing google searches for “origomi” instead of “origami”. I’d suggest the following links: www.origami.comwww.paperfolding.commoney origamiBob Nienhuis’s money origami pagewww.origami-usa.orgfolds.net easy origami tutorialswww.oriland.comOrigami Underground (origami models for adults only)British Origami SocietyMarc Kirschenbaum’s Origami PageMonkey.org tells you how to make an origami craneMeenakshi’s huge page of modular origami diagramsSarah’s (of megatokyo fame) origami sitewannalearn.com’s links (many of the same sites, and several more for instructions Hope that helps you get started down the road to some easy origami folding! If you are looking for origami tessellations and more complex origami, take a look at the links …

She’s got a whole bunch of really cool photos, so make sure you check them out! http://www.flickr.com/photos/rbean/!
