As you said the pictures asre slightly poor, are you using macro(the little flower)? It's meant for taking close up pictures.

It is looking good. I like it.

As well as using macro mode, you may also want to check the camera is focusing where you want it to, in some photos it seems to be focusing on the background.

I don't like cameras that make all the decisions!

to take close up pics, either use the close up setting, which is normally shown as a flower.
Or
find a stable surface, rest the camera on it, and zoom in.
