Thanks, James! Doing multiple diagonal shifts doesn't change the math that much, but it does make the actual folding harder.

I've seen your work on Flickr before, and was blown away. Josh, my housemate, responded to my claim that one of your diagonal vases was made out of a single sheet of paper with, "Nah, not possible." Apparently you are quite the miracle folder ;-)
EVERYTHING MUST BE MADE OF PAPER!

Thanks so much! I've been using a Canon PowerShot SX40, which I've been very happy with - good pictures and easy to use. I also tweak the colors and crop the photos in GIMP.
