Just go ahead and use the AUTO setting and let the camera do the work for now. Then as you get more comfortable with it you can experiment with all the bells and whistles. If you were concerned with doing "available light" work (no flash) then those settings are for your use. Indoors, for example, you would set it for incandescent or florescent depending on the case.

Basically, it all depends where you're taking the picture.
If you're indoors and your light source are fluorescent lights (bluish tinge), you use the 'Fluorescent' setting. If your light source are incandescent lights (yellowish tinge), use the 'Incandescent' setting.
If you're outdoor and the sun seems to be shining really bright, use the 'Daylight' setting. If it's cloudy, use 'Cloudy'.
Your camera might use different terms than the ones I mentioned above. From the way I see it, your 'Outdoor' is probably the 'Daylight' setting, and your 'Shade' might probably be the 'Cloudy' setting. Try experimenting.
Tip: Generally, photographers use the 'Daylight/Outdoor' setting when taking pictures. Everything turns out vibrant that way.
