Check the focus length on your camera. There may be portrait and landscape settings. Use the portrait setting for pics of the computer and anything within arm's reach of the camera. Use the landscape setting for anything further than your arm. If there's a group setting, use that for things in the same "bedroom-size" room.

I joined a meetup group online, I want to take my pictures to them to have look at them, perhaps they can tell me why some came out very good and some not so good.

Unless you need to show the monitor, use <alt-prt scrn> to capture images from your computer.

For me, in windows it's just print screen, then I paste it to paint, or whatever else (eg photoshop) not alt-print screen.

Some monitors have a flicker effect that our eyes can't see, but is hard to focus on if the camera and monitor are not synchronized.

Speaking of that, do you know what it is about our eyes that makes for perfect shots, they always focus, never shake (I know why that is) , and I'm perfectly satisfied with mine, but not my camera. :)
I may just sell this one and get a point and shoot, as much as a I paid for it. Is that all you really need unless you want to have special effects, that focus and the right exposure is what they are built for. The auto setting doesn't focus correctly. I have a pic I'm sure I took with that setting, but it's of a person and I don't have his permission to post it online.
