Ill agree with OldG on the not finding long nails attractive.
on your fretting hand, they should be below the level of the fingertip so they dont interfere with the strings when your fretting them.
On the right hand (and im not 100% on this), i think they talk 1/8th inch longer than your finger tip. So the nail gets some bite on the strings too...
Try it, grab your guitar, and pick a string using only the flesh of the finger tip... and then do the same using the fingernail as well..... Much better tone innit?
