A quesy for the camera buffs..........
I am not a photographer, but a couple of years ago purchased a Fuji Pics S304. Most of the time, I run it in auto mode, and the results are acceptable.
I have recently tried some more detailed photography, but found the results to be dissapointing. I have just discovered that the camera will only save images in a compacted jpeg format.
Oh well, onwards and upwards...................

Ah. Well it should be possible to get much better quality than you been. Theres usually several quality settings of JPEG built into the camera so make sure its on the highest quality and largest (physical) size. For this you'll need to RTFM as all cameras are slightly different.
Heres some example I found of what can be achieved with your camera:

In general, to get the best possible quality of picture the following factors are important:
Lowest possible ISO rating for the amount of light available.
Camera lens is clean
Camera is correctly foccused (and on the right subject)
Aperture sufficiently small that all important areas of the scene are within the depth of field
Shutter speed sufficiently short that hand shake is not noticeable (longer the focal length or the more 'zoomed in' you are, the shorter this time is.)

Thank goodness CB, I thought my eyesight was going (insert own joke here).
Steve, I was curious about your post, timed at 1.03 am on Monday morning, where you said the photos were "Some from this morning" - I know you lived in the North, didn't realise it was so far that the sun never set (unlike down Sarf, where it hasn't bothered rising today)!
