Get a polarized filter too if you don't have one, it's a good investment.

I also concur..
i can't compete w/ these photos...
I enter in here once in a while... it hasn't changed...
I need a dslr or a RAW pic...
This isn't a competition. Just post anything that you think is good. Everyone has their own opinions and the pic chosen as the "winner" is not by unanimous vote. If only the best pics were posted here, how boring would that be? What, maybe 5 pics per month? That would suck. I encourage everyone to post pics as I'd rather have too many as opposed to too few.
If anyone want's to send me a pic to have some PS work done on it, go ahead. Just tell me your idea and I'll see what I can do. My e-mail is in my user info.

Even with a DSLR you still have to learn to take good pics. They are not a magic wand that makes everything look better.

I have a 7.2 Megapixel Sony DSC-W7, and a 3.2 Megapixel Olympus D-535 Zoom. Both are point a shoots. The Sony gets grainy in darker situations, but it has manual settings which really helps for some things I use it for. I keep it on 1 Megapixel though to save disk space. I use the Olympus on 1600X1200 pixels, which is around 500-700K on disk space.
They do quite nicely though.
Heres a picture of my car from the Olympus, completely unedited or resized:
And pic from the Sony,(resized by photobucket though):
