If you’re “not much into photography”, why would you want to go to all that expense to get a DSLR? They cost a lot more money than you realize at first.
Yes, the quality is certainly better, but it would totally depend on YOU.
You can put a fantastic professional camera in the wrong hands, and it will take lousy photos. A good photographer can coax great photos out of even the simplest cameras.
If you don’t put a lot of effort into learning about photography, a better camera will not miraculously give you better results.

If you want better pictures then a DSLR camera is the way to go. DSLR cameras have the larger sensor so you get a higher quality images. You can change lenses which can be valuable, by allowing to adjust to different needs.
Either the Nikon D3000 or a Canon 1000D (Digital Rebel XS) are excellent cameras and would be a quality choice. The first link below is to a web page that lists the 2 cameras side by side. This list will let you compare features and specs, also it has links to reviews of the cameras, the reviews include sample images from the cameras.
Also I included some links to some sellers so that you can try and get the best price. These sellers also have customer reviews of equipment which may be of some assistance.
Hope this help.

What you already have is a nice camera. I don’t know what you mean by ” better pictures”. I can get good pics with my friends $ 125 point & shoot. Like the other poster said, it’s not the camera but the person behind it.
