[Origami] More Copyright infringements

2016-04-18 Thread Paper Dragon

While searching for other reasons, I came across another website with T images 
of origami models know to me. Some of the other images, I found questionable. 
What should be the standard of notification? 
  
The last time there were two creatures works which were uncredited, and 
manufactured without permission. I knew the creators and informed them. They 
acknowledge that they would contact the manufacturer. 

This time I spotted many items on one site. In addition the last two are dead - 
so I do not know who defends there intellectual property rights...

[Origami] New British Origami Society booklets

2016-04-18 Thread Chamberlain, Clare
Not sure if you'll publish this but...
Great to see new and recycled titles - but is there any way to get them apart 
from Amazon? I'm really trying not to use Amazon because of their vast range of 
unethical practices, social and environmental.  Cheers  Clare


Re: [Origami] comments on a 2016 origami book, Zen Origami

>> Noticed Zen Origami by Maria Sinayskaya released in 2016.

We have this kit for sale at The Source. You can see a description and the 
table of contents here: https://origamiusa.org/catalog/products/zen-origami 

No one has left any comment yet on our site either, but my personal opinion is 
that other publishers should take this as an example of the way origami kits 
should be made. A lot of publishers make origami kits in big, bulky boxes with 
a lot of wasted space and a cheap stapled booklet. This kit has a nicely bound 
full-sized book in a slim slipcase that also includes 400 sheets of paper. The 
paper is about kami weight with colors and patterns appropriate for a relaxing, 
zen theme.
