Most of them were pared in half from an average of 12. It would be absolutely stellar if we could have all of these, or a derivative of them, but it will probably be easier for They Who Rule to let us have our top choices for now. Maybe in time, more of these choices will filter in.

Did you mean pared? Sorry to nit-pick, just making sure I'm not misunderstanding.

Yes I did! That's why I shouldn't write when I first wake up!

Aw, no more multiple choice? I picked turtle, blossom, and feather, but I'd also love to see frog, butterfly, and snowflake (I imaging folding an origami snowflake to be a total b**** though)

Looks like a total b**** to me!

But I'll be derned if it isn't purty.

I wonder why such strong support for bird when we already have cranes, the most traditional of all origami bird designs. Yes, I see how it might be nice to have a broader noun and all, but isn't "crane plus turtle" better than "crane plus bird" since the latter can't be anything else?

Possibility that some of us who are voting don't know which designs are already available. I know I don't, and it's quite possible that's just me!

Edit: Though I think we've narrowed it down enough that the ones listed above could just go into the patterns, there aren't as many now.

crane, dragon, hippogriff, snake, flame, package

Make sure to vote! The polls will be relatively useless tomorrow morning, which is when I'll be shipping the results off to They Who Control Things.

Hey, whatever happened to dandy new origami patterns from this?

I sent The Big Guy a PM with the pertinent information! The rest is history.

Must get new patterns.
