Heck I still don't know how to use most of the features! I normally just leave it on auto mode and click away!

A new camera body will not take better pictures for virtually everyone unless you are trying to enlarge images bigger than 11x14 or larger. If you want to upgrade, a new lens is probably a much better choice. The 20D is still quite capable. There are pros using camera with half your megapixles and getting stellar images. My Canon 5D is older than your 20D and I will put it up against virtually any other camera out there. I do not see a need to upgrade anytime soon.
Unless you can clearly identify something your 20D cannot do that a newer body can (very large enlargements, focus speed, shutter speed, etc.) for specific shooting circumstances, it is fine.
If you have a cheaper kit zoom lens, you will see much more improvement with new glass than a new camera body.
