But believe what you want.

Nit Picking and Picking nits are both fairly common expressions.

Nitpicking certainly is. I have never before heard anyone use the
expression 'picking nits' though.


They both are very common. Check out how often the expression is used on
the web.

That may be true but I have never heard anyone use it. According to
Google, it is also the NOT most common phrase:

results
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=nitpicking&spell=1 nitpicking:
1,390,00 results

But I guess this is just nitpicking. ;-)
