This site has good pics of edible, medicinal and poisonous plants. Take a look at it and see what you think.

That is a good site. Now....Listen up everyone....we need that kind of information in OUR foraging database. Everyone needs to get busy and POST.

I have alot of pics of edible wild plants but cant resize and they dont fit. I have posted them on other sites through photobucket. Pooter skills are lax.

Stairman - Rick turned me on to paint.net (you can download it free) to re-size (and more) my pics.

Paint.net, for anyone interested, is a sweet little program with a lot of big capabilities. I own Photopaint 8 and Paint.net. Most of the time I use Paint.net for my needs. It's free, it's supported and it's user friendly. And no, I have no connection to them other than being a customer.

The burdocks are sometimes confused with the cockleburs (genus Xanthium) and rhubarb is the only plants I know of

Paint comes with all Windows OS. Just go to all programs-> to Accessories-> look down list and you'll see Paint.

MS Paint is severely limited. Check out The Gimp (http://gimp.org). It's free in every sense of the word and is available for Windows (http://gimp-win.sourceforge.net/stable.html), Linux (http://gimp.org/unix/) and Mac (http://gimp.lisanet.de/Website/Overview.html).

Our company uses it for all our web design and it works great.

MS Paint and Paint.net are two different animals. Paint.net is far superior to Uncle Bills paint program. And, yes, paint.net is free to download and use. It's freeware although they do accept donations.

I hope I do this right, I am trying to post one of my favorite wild plants, stinging nettle.
