I suggest you use the search function. Just write beginner and press enter. Several exercises, licks and such will be shown. Many of them will help you with your picking. I recommend you to take one with audio, that really helps.

One suggestion I really want to help you with is to pick alternate. It's really simple to explain but hard to play. The thing is that you should ALWAYS pick upstroke, downstroke, upstroke, downstroke etc. Check this out! (I writes wich finger you should use on you left hand, if you're right handed. Otherwise vice versa)



Legend:

D - downstroke
U - Uppstroke

1 - index finger
2 - middle finger
3 - ring finger
4 - pinky

Start with exc 1. you will see that when you take the 7th note on the G-string, you have to go over the string before you hit it, because you are suppose to do a uppstroke, you know. This might seem pointless, but by doing this you will help your pick hand to keep the pulse. Do these two other exercises, don't go over to the next untill you think you really got it clean and sharp =D. By the way, you're supposed to repeat them several times, I forgott the stars.. =(
