I just did a huge rework of my website. I added some info to the Origami Projects section which includes the monkey fold off that originated here.
My website is at http://www.themountainfold.com/paul
Some stuff to come.
Sonobe project page
Phizz unit page
My creations page-
Fold off two- the valentines challenge
Updated links page coming soon.
So I have a few questions to ask you to help me make my site better.
1. for my links section what are some essential origami links? and your personal links?
2. If you have folded models form books that i have in my library, would you please send them to me, and I will add them to my site.
3. Could you all go through the site and see if there are any dead links.
4. any suggestion for more material ( ideas to make the site better, recommendations, etc.
5. If you would like to showcase some of your creations, I have a section on my site dedicated to guest folders, I currently have only two, and that section of the site is not currently up.
6. the Monkey fold off is still going on so if you want to fold any all ready published monkeys, I will add them to my site.
7. Thanks for the help

Hey Paul,
Site looks great!
The only thing I recommend is actually optimising and creating the thumbnail pictures. Reason being, you have probably just altered the width and height attribute but have not changed the actual picture to a thumbnail. This means that users are downloading the massive pics, instead of the thumbnails - kinda defeats the purpose!
Some of your pics are 300k, which take a while to download on my ADSL connection.
Something like IrfanView can let you quickly resize the pictures into smaller files, for use as thumbnails. Also, the program is free!
