You're welcome. I continue to struggle when taking an image of a "scene" to understand the role of the subject. I think for an image to make an impact there has to be some kind of anchor if you will. When I've seen awesome landscape shots they generally have something that pops out be it a tree, some flowers, a river, something. In your image all of the elements seem to have an equal weight if that makes any sense and so I feel like there is something missing.

As for the title thing, I've had that conversation before: http://www.photography.ca/Forums/f3/...name-8234.html and I'm not sure I'm any less confused about it

I can't tell what the settings were so it's difficult to say for sure where the sharpness issue arises. Can you put the full size image up somewhere and provide a link to it so the board won't "smoosh" it? Or just double check how you are resizing it to make sure you are getting the largest, most detailed image the board can handle. Less than 250KB and less than 1024 pixels wide. Try and make it 240KB

Colour adjustments can be made in Photoshop or Gimp or a myriad of other tools but you are right, getting it right in camera is the best solution since every time you tweak it in an editor you are potentially reducing the quality of the image.

While I will totally agree that with better tools you can do better work, don't dismiss the opportunities to make good images with a point and shoot. I've taken a few good shots and I've seen a lot of other people's amazing shots taken with 3 and 4 megapixel point and shoots.
