I don't recall any gamma settings. I did find the Diffuse color issue randym mentioned, but I was hoping I wouldn't have to manually do that every time I start a new scene... maybe that's what the EZskin is for. But changing it there to blue made it look right.

Now I've ran into another major gripe - We can't send movies to the Render Queue?!?!?!?!?! That was like 95% of the reason I upgraded!
