Tips And Tricks: I'm looking for a really good pocket camera/point and shoot digital camera. What model is best?

Hi,I did the following:

I'm looking for a really good pocket camera/point and shoot digital camera. What model is best?I like to take close up high-detailed photos. Good macro mode preferable. I would i also like the images taken to be stable as i always take pictures of functions in my school and sometimes, the pictures turn our blurry. How do i prevent that?

But please keep in mind that I'm not looking for a huge bulky camera as I prefer it to be easy to be taken around. Please keep in mind, I'm only 16 so my budget is pretty tight. The pictures must be high quality too! Low-grain is a must!

I know i'm being too picky but this is my first purchase for a camera and i want to make sure its worth it. All the help will be greatly appreaciated. I like to show my friends & family the photos i take so at least a 2inch LCD is great! :D

This one looks pretty good but i'm not so sure yet though...

The all time winner bargain compact digital camera is the Canon 7.1 megapixel PowerShot SD1000 [not the IS] 7.1 with an added 2- gig memory card which when set in the manual mode for "Vivid" colors and videos at 30 fps in 320 dpi format provides killer images and videos. It currently sells for $ 160 at Sears:
