If you are in a position to purchase additional software such as PixInsight, CCDStack, MaximDL, etc (there are many others) you'll find this and many other core tasks such as calibration, combining, deconvolution etc. much easier. You'll likely still use photoshop for bulk of the work but the grunt work, is best handled by the other software previously noted.
Don't know about DSS for background tools, I'll have to look into it. Apart from stacking the images in DSS I use it for little else.

Thanks for your input again.

Cheers,

Justin.
