We need an updated, simple to understand, accessible "What is Folding and how do I help" guide. We don't really have anything like that. Everything in our Folding forum assumes that people understand some basics like what it is and how to do it.
I've been trying to get new people to join the team but I don't really have a link to point them to.
Any volunteers want to take a crack at writing a very simple summary guide on what it is and how to get started with Team 93? I can edit.

something like http://icrontic.com/discussion/29803/prospective-team-member-guide/p1 ?
ohhh...i thought i was helping discover new and inventive origami designs.
but thats neat too
Yes, exactly like that. Time to repurpose it!
And bring back joinfolding.com to point to the guide?
Or just making fold.icrontic.com point to it instead of paying $15/yr for another decade.
I can't* tell you how many times I've had someone try to go to joinfolding.com after seeing it on my @QCH designed Folding T-Shirt, though!
*Literally, I cannot tell you, because I don't know. It could be zero.
Has anyone volunteered for this yet? I'm up for making something!
And, yes, I still have a supply of F@H t-shirts.
I just bought joinfolding.com and I'd love for it to land somewhere. I can host a homepage and point everything to Icrontic, like we use to...
How does we get shirts?
Go to store. Buy shirt.
I haz shirz... whacha need size wize... {uhuhhuguguuhu... no more trying to type that way}
I have 2 boxes of shirts. I'll look and see what I have available and post the number and sizes. Cost? Shipping... I've long since written off hope of breaking even.
FYI... http://joinfolding.com links to the root of our IC F@H forum.
I'll be getting my gear running again after testing hiatus. I'd also be up for a simple guide replicating that old one or looking over someone else's work.
