Well, my digital camera seems to ruin perfectly good settings with the flash, and without it, the pictures come out looking like CRAP.

Well, I need a digital camera in my price range that can take better pictures. "Warmer" may be the right word, not sure. But the flash doesn't need to ruin pictures and such, and if it could focus on things, that would be cool too.

I wouldn't mind a used/refurb one if that means a better one for my budget either.
 
The picture you posted looks fine to me as far as color temperature is concerned.

If your talking about the pictures displayed on that monitor, I would highly venture to guess that your monitor calibration is way off. Try a 6500K color temperature and all the pictures you have will warm up. Your starting to run into the....LCD colors and contrast is just lacking compared to a good CRT.
 
and what are you getting now? Post a small one of what you are getting now without flash, and the camera model. That picture above was taken without flash, looks like low ISO with noise reduction.

Even with a nice DSLR, it's going to take me a couple of tries to get it right if I want it just right out of the camera.

If I can post process the pictures using my standard workflow, then one try is all I need...
 
One pic with flash, one pic without. Same spot. The flash just seems to make everything look really ugly, showing cords and blemishes and everything. Camera is HP Photosmart E427

If you want to take a picture in the dark without flash you are going to want to put it on something to prevent motion blur because you will likely be using a slow shutter speed. Otherwise you are going to have one bright spot (i.e. the LCD screen) and total blackness.
 
Yeah that photo was taken with an XTi, 400ISO and 1/4 shutter speed at F/3.5... which means that it was tripod mounted. Sorry but for your price range you are not going to get something that can do that.
