So what exactly qualifies a paper as Rice Paper? I have seen rice paper that is all white and super thin, rice paper with brownish specks, and super thick rice paper that is colored and has leaf patterns. If anyone knows the answer, I'd appreciate you sharing it with me. Thanks :) .

Correct me if i am wrong but rice paper is any handmade paper that is made from rice fibers. So it can come in many thicknesses and colours like any other handmade paper.

I just checked Wikipedia(Why did I not think to do that earlier #-o ?) It says it can be made from the rice plant, but mulberry and hemp as well.....Kinda a confusing name :? .
