New year, New Hair. I can't screw this decision up!

I want to cut my hair for the new year and all, I am very sick of my hair currently. This is a pic of me recently http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=792906&l=185f4a5984&id=1314542297 I cut my own hair a little since then, but it gives you an idea of my face shape and hair color.

I want a very casual feeling hair cut. Part of me wants to cut it short, but I have just grown out my bangs, and I am a bit scared I will regret cutting it later. I am having a pretty hard time finding good pictures, and I will not go to the salon with out a picture, because otherwise I can’t tell if they understand what I am asking for.

So please, your suggestions and links to photos please. Thank you so much!
