Everything looks OK on the timeline, OK on the original .avi's captured from the camera, but when I render, everything is blue! Especially skin! I'm using VV 4
Adding color correction somewhere? No way possible Vegas could be adding colors arbitrarily, so there is a filter, setting, or something added in there...
If you'd like, send me a veg, I'll have a looksee.

Are you editing on a computer monitor and then watching the video on a different monitor/tv? If so, you need to deal with the colour temperature issues somehow.
In TV broadcast the easiest way to calibrate monitors is to use SMPTE Colour Bars + blue gun option on the composite monitor.
Some VGA monitors allow for 5600, 6500, 9600 kelvin Colour Temperatures...
Except, if it looks one color in the monitor before render, it SHOULD look the same color AFTER the render. I didn't see where VooDoo said it was a different monitor...
By chance did you happen to use the old HSL filter? If so, that rarely can cause the effect you've seen. Everything looks fine on the timline, your source file is fine, but once rendered... YUCK! For me this was a transcoding error trying to work from a MPEG source file. Strange you see it with a AVI.
I would try adding a new track, move the vid, render again and see if the problem reappears. I've seen unexplained things happen where simply doing this fixes them right away.
