Your first picture has the best composition out of all of those. If you could have focused a bit more it would have been 100% better. It also doesn't help that they're all under exposed.
But I know you have a point and shoot, so you really can't do much. The bokeh's point and shoots give off are...the suck.

I'm sure there is TONS of information online for general overviews. If you have specific questions and such ask.

In the mean time, I'd recomend playing with what you have and seeing if you like it.
Taking better pictures takes practice. I'm not saying a DSLR will magically make your pictures better, but it will help you to learn what's going on and you'll be much more pleased with the results. (pictures will be much sharper and focusing will happen much faster)

I mean of course you can take good pictures with one, but the menus are complicated and the results aren't very clear. Throw it in manual and flip all the dials and play with all the settings. That's what I did, I found out that I enjoyed it and stepped up to a DSLR. (d40 - a perfect beginning camera) If you enjoy shooting and learnign what settings do what I'd recommend getting a d40 or other entry level DSLR. (craigslist should bring you one around the 300-350 dollar mark)
