Need camera purchasing advice?

Howdy. I want to begin photography but I'm having a bit of trouble looking for which camera to buy. So I'm aware that there are point and shoot, SLR, and DSLR cameras. I'm aiming for a budget at least 200 dollars or below (I came to an understanding that cameras are NOT cheap).So I'm most likely not going to get a SLR or DSLR with my budget unless its something like a used Nikon D70 which I'm iffy on because its pretty old. But if its a point and shoot that I'm going to look for, I want it to be a semi-complex camera that I can work with for a while but also aids me in taking gorgeous pictures.

Bottom line is, I have a 200 dollar budget and can't afford a SLR or DSLR. I'd like a good semi-complex camera (if possible) that I could work with for a while. If you have an suggestions on any great cameras (point and shoots are absolutely acceptable as well as any SLR or DSLR that are available at my budget).

They are un-edited. Just as the camcorder captured them.

There are probably some decent used DSLR's that could be had for $200, but individuals who you don't know are a risky source, and stores with a known reputation are just about certain to ask for more. If you actually know a camera nut who keeps buying the latest thing, he or she may be willing to declutter some pretty good used stuff cheaply if you seem appreciative of it.
