do you find my pics too red then?

Those that you internal flash can reach will become to red, the side will be just nice.

Actually yours still OK lor.... I had seen worst. I am refering to those that use manual white balancing.

One way to try.
Set your camera to tungsten white balance, shoot in a hotel or rest will have very nice and natural colour... without flash that is. If you start to use flash, your pictures will become very greenish blue.
