Little better now. Still out of focus terribly but much better than your usual. Try getting much further away then zooming in. What camera model is this your using? Maybe I can help you then.
If your camera has good resolution you can step back for a more infocus shot then crop the surrounding stuff out. It should still be plenty good for the web by the time your done.

Great plants! It must have taken a while to get a collection like that!
As for the camera, the Imaging Resource indicates that you need to hold the S300 about 7 inches from the subject in macro mode. This should greatly improve the sharpness.
Here is an example of the best macro performance of your camera:
Your probably just holding it a little too close, it can be very difficult to judge the right distance on some cameras; I have often had the same problem.
Well, here we go... You don't get the full effect of the greater distance, because I didn't det up the tripod today... But a few of the pics are vastly more in focus.
Nepenthes campanulata: (not my best pic)
N. clipeata:
The very rarely seen N. dubia:
N. ramispina pitchers about 5-6" tall. Pitcher to leaf size ratio is about 1.7:1!
A terrible pic of sibuyanensis buried about half way: (better one tomorrow hopefully)
Now, a guessing game. This picture is a little blurry on purpose... No use looking at the filename!!
