The Origami Forum

Hi guys, I've been here in the forum for a while now, and I thought it was about time to upload some work into a little gallery. I do hope you enjoy!

This is my first post, so I'm only uploading these two photos. If it works I'll be adding many more! And as always you can see all my works (including experiments) on http://www.flickr.com/photos/alexsoukasart

Cheers!

Wow, I had never imagined that a super member doesn't know how to post pictures to the Forum, unsure if I shall laugh or cry.

I thought exactly the same, Anna.

so are you mods gonna help him out or what?

there is not even a link to fix... nothing to help with.. just "<a><img></a> ". maybe you can guess what Oruhito was trying to show.

All I'm saying is give the guy a break, he said it's his first photo post...
Anyway, the photos can be seen on his flickr site (like he said).

Thank you Quentin for sticking up for me in my absence.

I can't believe that of all the people on here, moderators would be making fun of someone because of their lack of knowledge with the internet. Just because I'm a super member doesn't mean I know everything about uploading digital images - all it means is that I've (hopefully) contributed good advice to some topics.

Instead of simply mocking me, would you mind helping me? I apologize for the terrible inconvenience.

Quentin, would you mind helping me? I can't figure out where my post went awry. I copy and pasted the URL in the post and all it came up with was the text. I appreciate your time and patience!

The way I upload photos from flickr:
click on "all sizes" above the photo on your flickr that you want to upload. A larger photo will come up, as well as options for other sizes. Choose "medium". When the medium sized photo comes up, scroll down to a single line (the URL). Right click and copy this URL.
Then come to this forum, click on the "img" button, paste the URL and click on the "img" button again.

This should work.
Any problems, just ask and someone will be able to help you.
Greetings
Quentin

PS, great work on your flick site!

*gapes in awe at whole conversation*

Cool models

Five Intersecting Tetrahedra
Designed by Tom Hull folded by me from 30 uncut rectangles interwoven without the use of adhesive.

Orihuto, don't be angry, I was just amazed since I thought that a long time member like you would probably know how to use the basic Forum functions. html-text doesn't work on this Forum, we use something that's called BBCode instead. If you aren't sure if something works like you want it to be, just use the "Preview"-button to see how the actual post will look like and if it still doesn't work after some trials feel free to ask. I think your question about how to post pictures from flickr has been answered by Quentin but if you should have any further questions I recommend reading this little Sticky-Topic from the "How To"-Section: viewtopic.php?t=721
I'm looking forward to see your first self posted pictures on this Forum

Edit: Just saw you already posted them while I wrote this

Pinwheels

Hexagons/Honeycomb
Designed and folded by me from one uncut square of glassine.

What kind of division did you use for the honeycomb/hexagons? It looks like you would need forever to precrease. I'm always impressed by those very large grids that you tessellation folders sometimes fold.

Thanks Anna

I'm unsure of how many divisions are in the Honeycomb tessellation. I roughly counted and I'm pretty sure it was 64ths. I sometimes do 128ths

Precreasing does take a while for some pieces. But because you are so often involved in doing it, you become rapidly quicker at it each time. It usually only takes me two hours or so (not including folding the actual thing).

Since I'm here I thought I might as well try and transfer my whole flickr page here ^^
