Is fabric green screen better than those rolls of paper?

Its a consideration of wear I would say. Paper tends to get small dimples in it from any kind of kinking, while fabric would be more likely to be stained, collect dust, and higher cost to replace.
They both work well as far as background quality.Comment

it takes pretty thick fabric to avoid the light soaking through and reflecting off whats behind it. I'm assuming you'll be using some kind of "photoshoot" type lighting in which case like 5+ layers of fabric OR just dedicating an area to paint are probably you're only real options.
How big of an area do you need? there's those pullout type movie projector screen type material that can give you 100" or so of portable screen to use cheaply.
Lets say you get a fan blowing... that fabric won't stay quite good enough.
Maybe those cubicle wall things? they have some like 6' tall ones. Those would be relatively portable-- QUOTE ME IT MAKES ME FEEL SPECIAL --Comment

Buy a screen. There's plenty of portable ones to choose from.
Otherwise I would say fabric is a better choice than paper.I've trusted my sites to them for over a decade...

it also depends on what program you use to key it in. For example serious magic has a keying program that will key perfect even if the green/blue screen wasn't set up perfect.
By the way Serious Magic was bought by Adobe a year or so ago.
