I would try a white card to set the WB point. If that doesn't help, take it out in bright sunlight and see if the colors come out. It's possible (not probable) that your camera just cannot resolve the proper colors; photography and real life have very little in common, especially colors. That said, keep playing until it looks right... try with the flash, without, under different light sources, try digital manipulation; photoshop may seem like cheating, but this isn't film anymore, I haven't seen too many digital images that wouldn't benefit from a bit of photoshoping. good luck.

Erik.
