I just rediscovered my polaroid camera, and every time I take a picture with my it, it flashes, makes the usual noise, and the picture paper comes out, but its image is distorted. My camera is like 5 years old, and so is the film, so could the old film be the problem? The image has a brown background with an orangey-pink figure.

This is a CCD failure This is a known problem and the manufactures will replace the camera if it comes within their terms. Check out Polaroid on this

I had the same problem, stuck lens, 3 beeps and shutdown. You must get pissed off at the camera first. Then bite the lens, clenching it like pliars (you could probably use pliars too), turn the camera on and immediately start pilling on the lens in the outward direction. The tooth grip unstuck the lens and vot it worked. you can take this solution to the bank.

well, i have a polaroid i735 and that thing was my best friend.
i got it for christmas last year 2007 and 2 months later i went to disney world
for a cheerleading competition, and while i was there i turned on the camera and the
screen was completley shattered. not on the outside, but its like a negitive abstract picture. it wont let me see anything. so i came home and baught a new one because the warrenty was already up, and sent the broken one back in the new one, and got my money back. well now its november, almost a year later. and it did it again.
i havnt dropped it, or anything. im freaking out.
.. HELP ME.

The grainy effect has to do do with the ISO setting, try adjusting that. A higher ISO is generally better for darker conditions. I have noticed that this camera frequently takes grainy images.

Unfortunately you have a broken camera and it's not really fixable. There are plenty of free/cheap examples on FreeCycle and in thrift/charity shops but as you've discovered to your cost there's only one rather expensive way to find out whether they work...
