I always use the LCD screen because it's the only accurate representation of what my picture is actually going to look like. Digital camera users in particular need to be aware of the "parallax effect" that can cause you to improperly compose an image.
I'm used to using my old 35mm Nikon, which accurately represents what my picture is going to look like when I look through the viewfinder because it is a "TTL" (Through The Lens) viewfinder.
My digital camera's viewfinder actually gives a secondary view of my composition. In other words, when you look through the viewfinder, you're not actually seeing exactly how the image will be composed. If memory serves, I would need to tilt my camera down a bit to compensate for the positioning of the viewfinder...
There's an article about this problem here

| I sometimes put the camera strap around my neck and sort of hold the camera out so that the strap is taut. I think this helps a little with the camera shake because you're applying a little force in a direction that it cant move (away from you). |

I do EXACTLY the same thing. In fact I just told someone about that on Photosig, when asked how I managed to get relatively clear with this photo:
