Thank you soooo much Ftangdude! One question though, what kind of paper did you use? and Where is the most common place to get it? Thanks!!!!

I used tissue-foil.
It isn't the best, because it tears easily.
If you have tissue paper and aluminum foil, you are all set.
All you need is some spray adhesive, which can be found at most home building center type stores. I got mine at Canadian Tire.
There are quite a few tissue-foil guides on the internet, so just search "tissue foil" on Google.

Hey!!!! Just wondering how far you've gotten so far, thanks!

I find that my tissue foil is pretty sturdy, it doesn't tear that much, but I guess that depends on the kind of tissue paper you are using.

I learned how to make it from the guide in Advanced Origami By Michael LaFosse

Ftangdude, have you finished the picture diagrams for the dragonfly? just wondering!

Yes, but i don't have enough space on Flickr to store them. Have you made the base yet? I could send you a PDF of the pictures of the rest of the photo guide.

I actually haven't.

All the paper I've been using hasn't been working, so I'm waiting for my mom to take me into town to try and buy some good origami paper. But yeah, you could pdf the pics to me if you want! Thanks a Bunch!!!!!!

So, ftangdude, I've finally folded the base. I'm wondering when your going to send me those photos. Thank you so much for your help!

Great!
I'm still in the process of making the PDF guide.
I probably won't be able to complete it today, due to an exorbitant amount of homework.
You should have it by Sunday night, at the latest.

Darn. Apparently, the camera that had part five on it had all the pictures on it deleted. So, I don't think part 5 will come any time soon. Sorry.

EDIT: Hooray! The pictures haven't been deleted! The guide will be out soon.

It's okay! I've got other things to do too, so I'm not in a hurry

I have decided to make PDF documents of all the guides, deleting the pictures from my Flickr gallery, so I can have more space to upload pictures. I will then delete the text in the guides on the forum, and then provide links to the PDFs in their place.
Relating to that last one, what is the best way to get a PDF file onto the internet?
