Dear Gargji...
As usual I admire your enthusiasm and continued efforts on accumulating
the database of flora and fungi of India... Wish you loads of luck for
that... 
But at the same time I'd like to add a word of caution as other members
before me too have done that there needs to be a guideline for posting
photos of fungi... I cannot fathom that though we have a very
comprehensive guideline for photographing flora... and I fondly
remember all the senior members chiding me in the beginning for not
presenting the data properly and it really helped me to notice the
required characteristics and learn better... Like wise for Fungi you
need to set certain guidelines for photography without which all these
identifications hold no value on the basis of unfocused photographs ...
or worse only the photo of the caps...... 
Please refer to some of the example links I've posted and as other
members have also pointed out, set some rules for Fungi photographs...
