Chinese Joss Paper

[kpgclark]

I'm wondering if anyone here knows about Chinese Joss Paper. I picked up some at an Asian market today. One is in a package with many, many pieces each the size of a napkin. The other is included in a package with incense, play money, and what looks like it might be a paper boot. I've read that you can burn the paper and incense for good luck. Are they crumpled up to be burned? Is that all they are used for? Are they used for decoration?

I've never heard of joss paper before, only ever seen joss sticks.
