Hello again, Everyone!
Let me start by thanking everyone who is part of this group, to all who have commented, watched, given encouragement, submitted, and especially a huge thank you to the current admin we have who have made this group possible.
I know things have gotten slow lately, but as the founder of the group, I am personally responsible for what has happened here. The current administrators are absolutely wonderful people, and they are all amazing artists. They are my friends, and they do things that I can only hope to acheive one day. The thing is, roles in a group like this have to change eventually. Time passes, things change, real life butts in, you get the idea...but enough rambling!
I am looking for 5 new administrators to step up and help make this group lively and active like it used to be.
The role of the administrator includes:
-Prompt voting on member submitted works
-prompt voting on acceptance of new members
-Answering comments and commenting on comments when you have something to say.
-Being known in the community so that your voice is one members can go to if they have a problem.
-Keeping check of what items are submitted to what category, and sorting out the categories to contain proper submissions
-Quality checking! Use sound judgement when determining what goes in the featured folder (don't be afraid to reject requests, and to weed that folder out!)
-Being active in the community. Hosting contests and events. Creating new categories for people to submit to. (If you wish to include some type of prize in a contest, contact me and I will arrange an appropriate reward)
-Being a creative contributor. Continue refining your own style of origami. Submit your work. Be skillful. Know how to troubleshoot where others cannot, and offer constructive advice.
-Being responsible! If you can no longer perform your duties as an administrator, please inform us. Know when it is the right time to step down, to ensure the smooth transition of your role to another.
All potential future admin please send a note to
In the note, tell me about yourself, about your work, and why you are fit to run a group. Please be thorough, but concise. Have personality, be yourself. Please show me examples of your work as well.
Thank you very much everyone! I look forward to hearing from upcoming hopefuls!
***Just a sidenote, to all current admins: You may also opt to keep the position you have, however, Any and all admins will continue to retain their voting rights for this group. The old admin will simply be relieved of any obligation they have to timely see to the day to day upkeep of the group.

Hello?
I have been away too long....I'm sorry everyone for letting this group slip into abandonment...I am going to try my hardest to revive what used to happen here, however I will definitely need help, and admins who are available and willing to run this show. I am going to be speaking soon to the current admins to hear their thoughts. For now, I am actively watching and will approve requests that have been in waiting.
Tutorials
Guys, please stop submitting everything to tutorials. When you choose to submit a piece, there is a drop-down box that will allow you to select a different folder to submit to. If you can't find where your piece should go, then by all means ask us and we'll let you know.
And just in case there are responses along the lines of "But what I submitted was a tutorial and yet it got rejected," allow me to show you an example or two of a tutorial: http://synconi.deviantart.com/art/Origami-Pikachu-Tutorial-215512533 http://pandacub143.deviantart.com/art/Origami-Brocade-Tutorial-103380198

Another Crane Project
arielyiningloh (https://www.deviantart.com/arielyiningloh) is running a project: 1000 Cranes Project for Japan! This is different from synconi (https://www.deviantart.com/synconi) and moth-owl (https://www.deviantart.com/moth-owl)'s project 1000 Cranes for Fella but equally worthwhile.
arielyiningloh (https://www.deviantart.com/arielyiningloh) says:
The basic plan of the 1000 Cranes is this. The Japanese "belief" that if you make 1000 cranes and make a wish, that wish will come true.
Our original idea was for people to "buy" the cranes ($1 for the first crane and then .50 for any additional ones after that), and then they get to write their name on it to send "hope" to Japan.
Anyway, while this originally started as a fundraiser, we're almost done, and we have a lot of "blank" cranes leftover
Wanna win some awesome prizes???
synconi (https://www.deviantart.com/synconi)'s and moth-owl (https://www.deviantart.com/moth-owl)'s project, 1000 Cranes for Fella needs your help!
They are lacking in entries at the moment- but with so many prizes to be won, who can resist but take part?
Details:
- The idea is for each deviant to fold up to 5 origami cranes and submit each as a photograph.
- Photographs should be square and contain one crane only.
- Be imaginative! We've had cranes on flowers, music, sand, water; be creative!
Prizes!
There are many prizes up for grabs, including 3-month premium memberships and 200-point giveaways!

You need to go in and edit your group's settings! People can submit more than one deviation a week even though I was told (with attitude) by one of your admins that I can't. All my submissions were automatically denied because that admin didn't like which folder I put something in (even though it was correct). I think you need to either talk to your admins about understanding the folder names, or make it clearer what you want in each folder.
