what are all the little features I get on my dial when using my Nikon Coolpix 4600, there's what looks like a man running, a mountain, a woman wearing a hat, and a head with a star by it, and a selection called scene. I have no idea what any of these are used for, and I stick to the normal camera icon. I'd like to know how to use these, I think it would improve the quality of my photo taking experience.

coolpix are nice camaras
your camara has a automatic setting where it does the thinking for you, which you have propably used. If you set the camara to the icon of the man running you are telling it that you are going to shoot an action shot(the subject is moving) and it will adjust the setting to compensate. The women with the hat tells it you are shooting a portrait, and the head with the star behind it tells it that you are shooting a night time shot. I hope that helps I use those setting alot
