Try to look for ones with more Greenish/brownish caps or that turn quite pale when they start to dry out(before they're picked), when they're like that the nipple is usually more noticable).

I'm real new to this and have been monitoring these boards. I see tonnes of posts of "are these lib caps?", to which the reply is usually "Nope". I've been trying to test myself by guessing the answer from the pictures before I read down and see what you knolegable people say (so far, it has always been no...). I wondered if, when you say "no", you could specify a few features that tipped you off on why the pictures are not libs.

A few features:
1. The stem is not paler than the cap
2. The cap is not conical enouth
3. The "nipple" is too large and on a cap that is too large
4. The caps margin does not curve inwards
Whatever you do, don't eat it (them) thinking you're going to get high because you won't.

the gills are too light and too well-spaced, the size appears way to big, and the structure too bulky of the cap as xenophobic said.
take a spore print! it will be nice and easy that way, and youll learn some other stuff while trying to id it. in the future you will be able to id without taking a spore print, so try to determine the key features. it will help you more than just posting pictures here of everything you find and simply finding out if theyre good or not. good luck.
