The flash on most point and shoot cameras works best when the flash is six to twelve feet away from the subject. Shooting too close can lead to over exposure and shooting too far away can cause your shot to be under exposed. To get the best results, consult your camera's instruction booklet.

Agreed, but I will add this: Be aware of what's behind the subject! If you are perpendicular to a shiny surface, you'll get a very bright reflection in the background. Move to a slight angle to the background.
Also, if there is no close background, everything behind your subject will appear very dark. You can avoid this by putting your subject within a few feet of the background.
