Re: Folds in skin
If it's just along the tail, it's possible they're there because of the poop, yes. My sunglow loves to hold in her poop and she sometimes gets those folds after she unloads...if it's all along her sides, I'd bump the humidity, generally the vertical stripes are from too low of humidity. I'd go for 70-80%, or however high you can get it without causing condensation.

Re: Folds in skin
You should be able to upload the photos to a site like flickr or photobucket and then share the link here and then it should work that way. Maybe try that? Sorry, I'm not much help without pics :/

Re: Folds in skin
Picture someone at the end of the biggest loser with all the skin flaps.But then turn that into a snake and that's what she looks like. She also has a pearlescent stomach

Re: Folds in skin
Yup shedding is another possibility, the flaps are usually centered around the head/neck area than all over, and they'll be deep in blue. I usually don't see it before they go into a blue phase and it normally mostly goes away by the time they clear back up.
This is my girl Tirel showing an extreme case of jowls. haha
