The problem is probably the pixel size of the picture. Pictures with 5 or 6 megapixels look fine on 4 x 6 but they get blurry when enlarged. You need a minimum of 10 megapixels for an 8 x 10 print. Cameras that are able to take 10 megapixel or higher photos normally don't do this by default. They are set to save more photos on the memory card of the camera and so save the photographs as lower quality snaps. These are fine for looking at on a computer but if you want to print at 8 x 10 you need to set your camera to take the highest quality photo.
You have changed the resolution on your camera to a lower setting. A lower setting will allow you get more pictures on your camera's memory card but the quality will be very much lower. How you change this will vey much depend on your camera. Read the manual and/or post the model here.
Depending on camera model the setting might be called large or show
L M S (large medium small options). Also up the quality by setting the quality to fine or super fine.

Bring it in to a camera shop and ask for help or bestbuy or some such store that specialises in electronics - i'd be surprised if they didn't fix it for you in about 5 minutes - don't let them sell you another camera or more accessories with out getting a second/third opinion.
First of all do you have a HD signal?
these sets are made for HD and most look good when you set the HD box to 1080i , the cheaper sets do not look good with a non HD signal.
check all inputs, dvd, HD air, and component and post which are bad to get more help
Since you're using "analog cable", I would adjust the television such that the picture is not streched. This means there will be black bars to the left/right of the 4:3 picture, but you should experience some improvement in picture quality because the TV is not trying to interpolate what to do with an already crappy analog cable signal.
You may also want to add a signal booster where the cable first enters your residence... often, folks split that analog signal up so much it is weak... and looks much like you describe.
Hi - I have some suggestions. The following factors effect picture quality:
1. Source (because LCD TVs have much higher picture quality than traditional CRT "Tube" TVs, the worse your source material, the worse it looks on a LCD TV).
DVD and Sky/Digital TV should look excellent on this TV when connected with a good quality Scart lead (nothing too expensive, but a Oxygen Free Copper Gold lead may help) directly into one of the TV's Scart inputs (avoid using "switching" boxes for multiple equipment).
Also, bear in mind that this is a HUGE screen (40 inches I think) and will REALLY show up bad source material.
The best advice I can give is, if you have HD-ready equipment use HDMI connections for everything (ideally with an HD-uplscaling DVD player which will "improve" the quality of standard DVDs on the TV - I recommend models by Philips) and check that you are in "Movie" or "Cinema" mode on the TV.
Make sure that all of your equipment, like your Sky digibox, is set to 16:9 mode (not 4:3) aswell to preserve the true widescreen aspect ratio.
Hope that helps!
are you using an hd source ? hd cable box, satelitte receiver or antenna with the digital channels programmed in. regular tv channels will not look as good as the picture you saw in the store when you bought it. they all use only high definition signals.
your lighting may be set different on your camera.for example if you are outside the lighting is different inside.your camera should have amenu where you can change the lighting setting
