From the feedback page:

"Probably not very good in the rain, but in a pinch how about a paper lens hood? "
"This is definitely an interesting link. I'd never would thought of creating a lens hood out of cardstock. This is great, I've been contemplating whether I should spend money on the hood for my Canon macro lens. At least now there's alternative solution to my problem. "
"Save money, easy to customise (maybe with flames like Setzler?)! "

Still want a real lens hood? Bah! Take a look at the photography section on amazon.com.
