Trying to compile a herbal masterlist/printable list....had this removed from one forum for asking for suggestions/amendments...supposed secrutiy risk. i can assure you theres no security risk, it's a mere list in excel of herbs and there magical attributes, but if any one does have any suggestions/corrections or links to useful sites

May I suggest a site for your file other than Rapidshare, as my anti-virus software seems to believe that that site wants to install malware on my computer.

[emeraldpale]

i'll go and upload it else where straight away, don't use rapidshare too often so not too up on the pros and cons.
thanks for pointing that out.

I suggest using something like Google Docs to upload the documents. I hate to say it, but due to security, if these links aren't changed by the end of my workday (4:30pm EST), I'll be deleting this.

Sorry for the inconvenience, but I just can't take the risk of possible infection of others' computers! :) If you have any issues with this, please feel free to message me.

Thanks!

And to answer your last question, might I suggest nonfluffymagic and nonfluffypagans. They're both pretty strict on things like this, I imagine, so again, I urge you to use something like Google Docs for what you're trying to share with us. :)

done!
wasn't aware of googledocs, didn't think to search such a thing out.

Awesome, thank you so much! :)

One thing, I just tried to access it, and didn't have permission to do so. You have to either change the settings so anyone can view it, or allow each person who tries to access it. Just so you know!

I can see the document, but it confused my printer.

Am I a doofus(highly possible, excellent witch but TERRIBLE techno pagan), or this not a printable version?

[emeraldpale]

well i haven't tried to print it yet, still amending a fair few bits using my own personal library and wanted to see if anyone had any suggestions before i set about making it printable(and a pain in the but to edit)

[avahgdu]

Ok, well, I love this project and hope you post a reminder when it is printable.

My fave source book is Paul Beyerl's The Master Herbal.

Needs more research. Lots more research.

You don't note that there are two different vegetative products sold as "mandrake," one of which (Podophyllum pelatum) is MORE dangerous than the other (Mandragora officinalis.) Neither is what I would call "safe." Nor do you note that exposure to pennyroyal, even at low levels, can induce miscarriage.

JUST BECAUSE IT'S NATURAL DOESN'T MEAN IT'S SAFE.

Any person who publishes a list of herbs for any purpose without including as complete a listing of the related hazards as he is capable of compiling is doing his readers no favors.

[emeraldpale]

Well i'm amending, correcting and adding info from a few books, whats up there is basicly a list from a few sites online complied roughly beforing being refined and tweaked.

I completely understand the joy and helpfulness of creating a printable list of the herbs you use regularly with their attributes. Unfortunately I don't see a masterlist working well in this format. The masterlist I pull out regularly is a large 2 volume book set and there isn't much I would remove from it. That said... good luck, I'm interested in watching how this progresses.

[emeraldpale]

my own personal idea for this was to create a handy print off list, combining as many sources and info as possible and then proceed to copy it by hand into it's own book or my b.o.s.
But hopefully today or tomorrow i'll have some that everyone can use, that's easily printable and fully annoted on whats toxic and different varieties/names..etc

[ianphanes]

Why would you want to hand copy the material after you've already created an electronic version?

[bubonicblack]

MAYBE because this person wants to write it in by hand into their B.O.S. just like they said? i don't see how it's that hard to understand. most b.o.s are very personal to the owner, so i see why they would want to take their time with it instead of just adding in some printed pages.
