Just go get a bunch of different sizes and thicknesses, put them in a little bowl where you practice. in a month, the ones you can't find are the right ones for you (hint... check the lint catcher in your dryer).

Put me down for the Yellow Dunlop Torex's also. Man, that seems to be a popular pick. I used a thinner pick for a long time, but found when I started practicing seriously and trying to get things like pinch harmonics, that I need a something thicker... I just tried a whole bunch, including those cool-looking lexan pics. In regards Sebastberg's post, that's pretty much spot on for my rationale as well. One thing I noticed with really thick picks is that they tend to produce a lot of string noise (this is probably also due to how I hold the pick). I settled on the Yellow ones.. just a tiny bit of flex which I like, but comfortable, rigid feeling and minimal string noise.
