derailleur adjustment problem: How do I fix this?

So, I got a new bike today. I tried adjusting the derailleur because it was a bit off. It was the first time I've ever tried it, but I think I did a pretty reasonable job on it. The only problem I...

This problem is recent. My bike didn't come with this problem. Does this make it more likely that it is one problem instead of...

Problem with my bike

I'm having a problem with my bike. I always "slip" gears. I'll be riding along in, say, 4th gear, and all of a sudden it will slip to 5th gear (with quite a jolt, too, which has been the cause of...
