I found this in some guys backyard next to a tree while cutting grass today. It cought my attention because of the weird colors. Dark and bright orange, some yellow green and blue, It was like something out of Alice in Wonderland. When i picked it the mushroom instantly turned dark blue then a darker blue. There was only one of them but it was a preety decent size. Stem wasnt hollow, the under neath of the cap was solid no gills and it was a solid red, veil completly broken clean. Im just curious what the hell this thing is because ive never seen any thing like this in my life and i spend alot of time on this site.
any help would be great thanks alot.
Im going to try to get pics up but i have to figure out how to resise them on my cell phone..

Probably a bolete of some sort. Many do bruise blue. Especially if you said it had no gills. Did you see the porus underside?
My bet is that it is most likely poisonous. They are pretty cool though. Show us a picture!

Many of the blue-staining boletes are poisonous. Some, like Boletus bicolor, are edible. But I wouldn't take a chance with a blue-stainer.

Yeah, I don't mess with the blue bruising ones. It's not worth it to me.
