(959 posts)were the colors really that bad? Or was it because of the film used
Well, I know a lot of it is because of the film.. I love going through my parents pictures from the 70's and woooooow.

(116,244 posts)The fashionable colors were mostly orange-ish, mustard, brown and pea-green. You can't blame the film.
