Hey Everyone,

I just wanted to thank you guys for all the kind things you had to say about the new website. We have been receiving lots of orders and I am glad to say that production has successfully kept up. Orders are being shipped out in 9 days on average. I hope everyone is enjoying the paper! We still have big plans for the year. In fact, you should be expecting a 50cm square soon! The price of the 50cm square will be $7.99. Also, we are expecting to start offering different prints for tissue paper, such as giraffe. If anyone has any suggestions please feel free to post them. Thanks again for all your support and happy folding!

Daniel

Hello,
You gave me some samples back in Nov. and I didn't reply because my email glitched. Anyway, here are the suggestions...I'd reccommend not the giraffe color, but mixed colors instead, if you get what I mean.

Suggestions? Ooh thanks for asking: loads of ideas! Gradients: customer chooses 2+ colours and how to blend them. Custom model paper: with prints fitting a crease pattern so that different parts of a specific model are different colours e.g. Ancient dragon paper.I like the animal textures ideas, you could do a whole range.Visual illusion papers, maybe to fit specific models. i have loads of ideas, can't fit them on a post, pm me if you want more!

i think it is an amazing website! i will probably buy some soon. i think you should make some tissue foil with a pattern on one side and a color on the other.

patterns = no no; for me, they screw up the final model.

They don't screw up the model if it's a colour crease patter and the pattern on the paper is specifically designed for the model you're folding, so it makes the finished model look better, e.g. There is a colour cp for a waterbomb that makes it look like a pokeball. You could have some of them on www.tissuefoil.com for famous models in their recommended paper sizes.

Right now, the prices are different if I create a custom paper than if I get an already-offered combination. For example, the red and green 25cm paper is $4.99 per sheet. But if I select Custom Origami Paper, choose the 25cm size, and select red and green colors, it costs $3.99 per sheet. Is there a reason for the difference?
(Obviously, I'd prefer $3.99 per sheet. This is already twice the price of the 20cm paper,so $4.99 seems too high.) A similar price discrepancy occurs for the 35cm paper.

Just buy the cheapest one that you actually like and have done with it. That is my paper buying attitude (although sometimes i force myself to like the cheaper one because it is the only one i can afford)

Ads may be seen as ok by company members (the ones paying for the site) if they're ads for themselves, but this isn't as easy as that, so yeah, pay for your hosting.

Hey Everyone,

Its been another busy week for us. We are very close to providing 50cm paper!

On a different note, we owe an apology to our members. Our IT guy has an ad blocker that disables the ads on our site. This explains why I have never seen the ads. This will be taken care of this week. Sorry to appear unprofessional. We take great pride in providing the best experience and products we can.

We have great things in store for this year. One major surprise is in the works :wink: . We are not ready to announce anything yet, but stay tuned...you won't want to miss this one.

Sorry for the confusion. The pages with color combinations chosen for you are able to ship out faster than the custom made paper. Custom paper ships out within 2-3 weeks. The offered combinations are able to ship out within the week. We have not decided if we are going to keep these combinations or just go to completely custom paper combinations. The custom paper section has been a tremendous hit so far and its only the beginning of what is to come. The new selection will still be 'tissue' paper but think Thai =P~ .

Hope everyone is enjoying their week of Spring Vacation!
