I recently bought a second hand Canon Powershot Sx20IS, not for the zoom, but because I wanted better low-light capability and less noise and artifacts in my photos.
I don't have the budget for an expensive DSLR, I just needed something better than
my Samsung ES91.
I am a tad disappointed with the SX20's performance - it's barely any better than the E91!
I mostly take macro, or close-up photos of reptiles, fish and other exotic animals in an indoor environment.
Any suggestions?
Answer
you need a LARGE image sensor to get better image quality, you jumped from one small image sensor camera to another, that's why you saw no difference.
If you want to skip dSLRs, you can still get a large sensor like a dSLR (or nearly so depending on brand/model). The best bang for the buck is the Sony NEX 3N for 499 US dollars, nothing can touch it, no Canon, no Nikon no Pentax. Another one to look at, the Olympus E PM2 also worth a look.
Whatever you do, don't pay big bucks for tiny sensor camera like a Canon G series or Nikon P series, those cameras are not a good value. Any new Sony NEX like the 3N or 5R, or any new 2012 or 2013 micro four thirds camera will give you dSLR image quality. A nikon 1 series will get you close to dSLR quality like the J1, J2 or S1. Avoid the higher pixel count J3, the image quality went down when they added too many pixels.
To get the most out of any of these cameras, shoot in RAW format not jpeg.

What is so good about DSLR cameras?
YupItsMe!
What is a DSLR camera? Why do professional photographers use them? What the difference between a DSLR and a regular digital camera?
Answer
DSLR- Digital Single Lens Reflex- it uses interchangeable lenses
The difference between a DSLR and a P&S/"bridge" camera is the DSLR uses interchangeable lenses and a sensor that is about 15 times larger than a "normal" digital camera. A larger sensor gives larger and higher quality photos that have less digital noise. I have/can get lenses with optical quality/larger apertures that a P&S camera can't get. The DSLRs also tolerate low-light levels better and can shoot a higher FPS rate.
The other benefit that my DSLR camera has is an alloy frame (for durability) and various seals to make it weather resistant.
