I just mostly take pictures of things in the outdoors, I need more variety

Almost anything can be turned into an interesting subject for photography. Pick something that you have an interest in and do a study of it...such as leaves, different shapes, how light effects them, water, on the ground, still attached to a tree etc.
Maybe look at the work of other photographers and see what struck their interest. I remember some work Sally Mann did on chewed rawhide bones...weird subject but it was still fascinating.

People are always good subjects. Try going to the mall- take pictures of people on benches, maybe eating at the food cart.
Another good place would be a park or playground. If you are a student, you may want to take ID with you in case parents have concerns.
You could also go to public events-festivals, carnivals, etc.
Halloween is coming up. If the town you live in has a community Halloween event, that may be a good chance to take photos of children and adults in their costumes.

I like to shoot flowers because they're beautiful and they STAY STILL! That way I can experiment with aperture, shutter speed, focal points, and white balance. That way, when I make a change in any of those things, I know that it's not the subject moving or changing and I can get a better idea of what modes work and when. I also like taking pictures at the zoo-- because of the captive audience...

I think a bouquet of flowers sitting on a lacey tablecloth. Also, a picture of a baby lying on a blanket (in black and white). Taking pictures of birds would also be a good idea.

Hi, I recommand you to try google picasa.
picasa is a Google's photo software. It's what should've come with your camera.

Trains. Nature. Graffitti. Anything that you look at on a daily basis but never REALLY look at. Try and find a time when the light hits it weird. Try and find a time when it doesn't look like it does when you normally look at. Find something that really fades into the background and make it your focus.

The very first time I got my 80-200 Macro zoom, spent the whole afternoon taking photographs in my garden ... I "discovered" a new world

you can do this in photoshop you take a image in colour, you get the image you want to manipulate then you duplicate the layer so you have two layers with the same picture on it then your turn the top layer/ or bottom layer into gray scale then you are able to use the rubber tool to rub through the layer to reveal the colour layer underneath. hope this helps :)

If you live in an area where the leaves turn pretty colors this time of year, that makes an excellent subject.
