Well, yes, you must be a member of OrigamiUSA to get to the "members-only" content (some of "the Fold" articles are public, but most are for OrigamiUSA members only - not unlike the in-print magazines for most Origami associations.) And it does cost money to join the organization.

Details, costs and benefits of membership are described here:

Hope that's useful!

Nice fish; I would, however, not say that it is very suitable for beginners. Making a small closed sink on the back of the fish also locks the layers more nicely and gives it a rounder back.
