Cool looking print.
Perhaps a Psytherella sp?

Psathyrella candolleana, I'd say. The print photo is really nice. The others are poor mobile phone cam quality pics.

Sorry about that, ya the pics sucked. I scanned the print so it came out nice.
I was reading the threads about how to post an identification request thread. Can someone explain to me what convex/concave are? And what is "attached" gills supposed to look like? Attached to what? can someone explain or link me to an explanation?
Thanks

Doesn't look like candoleana to me, but it is certainly a Psathyrella sp.
And yes, the print photo is gorgeous. I have heard great things about using scanners for studio mushroom photography, you should look into it.

I always think of concave and convex in terms of lenses.

Convex bulges outward. Concave inward, like a cave in the side of a mountain.
Gills are evaluated for attachment to the stem. Try playing with this: Mycokey

wow that's fun. I was trying to come up with a way to build a site like that, but appearently I don't need to.
Guess I'll go back to watching TV and drinking beer.

I think Jacqueline's stuff is done on a scanner. I'm not sure though, because her reply when I asked was in french
