The best thing you can do for pics is to just google the different types and do a search here on LWF. There are a couple of members who have posted images and comparisons of a few different edgers. You'll also get a lot of information from some of the manufacturers websites. See the following couple of links that were recently discussed for some info and sources for suppliers.

There's a ton of info already published. Not to be lazy but it would be difficult to replicate all of the great comments out there by some fantastic craftsmen. The biggest difference between the types is the plane of the cutting surface, whether flat or curved and whether there are "feet" or guides on the sides of the blade (i.e. common vs round).
