I personally never do any processing in DSS and only use DSS to stack the image. I then use Photoshop for stretching, white balance, colour enhancing etc.
Here is a in depth tutorial on DSS I was telling you about (Doug German, the bloke that sounds like Michael Caine) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UWWaKkCUm6c
And here is part 1 of a basic tutorial on Photoshop, from this one you will find links to the 6 other parts.
