First astro image

I had my first serious attempt at imaging last night and am pretty happy with the results. This is a single unprocessed 5m exposure @ iso800 straight from the camera.

I took 4 x 5min @ iso1600, 5 x 5min @ iso800, 5 x 5min @ iso400, and 3 x 1m @ iso400.

But, I've no idea how to process them yet. I can stack them in DSS, but have no idea what to do after that.

I have GIMP but can't find any tutorials so am only randomly trying things with very poor results.

Any advice would be most welcome.
