For more help on steps 16, 17 and 18, go to detailed instructions. For additional help go to the animation to view an animated sequence of these folds. This is for users of browsers that support GIF animation such as Netscape Navigator 2.0b5 and later, or Internet Explorer. If you are using a web browser that does not support GIF animations, you will only see the first or last frame in the animation. You can also view a Flash animation if your browser is equipped with a Flash plug-in. Thank http://www.zurqui.co.cr for this.
