Possibly overexposed but when viewed on the web, "full" exposure is better than murky and overly dark. That photo was taken back lighted and to me looks good for a tricky scene.

Here are some other photos from the original Rebel before I "upgraded" to the 600D.

Color and white balance is one of the things that one can endlessly adjust with digital images. You can tweak these settings in camera to your liking. In fact, we don't even know where the problem is in your "production" line, if it is not calibrated. It could also be that your monitor is off, and that's why the old pictures seem better than the new ones. I had the same felling when upgrading from a Olympus 5060 higher class P&S to a 400D, the later pictures which seemed dull in comparison. Now recently I looked at some of these old pictures again, and they suddenly didn't look so great anymore, maybe the new computer monitor...
