Hi Shane,
I had a go with your picture but couldn't get much colour out of it either
even when increasing the saturation - except for Red.
I wonder if you have stretched the original data properly?
FITS liberator gives you a choice of many different stretching formulas.
The Red seems to be there but the Green & Blue are way down in level.
In DSS you can create a .reg file for each stack of RGB
which will automatically align the final stacked RGB frames.

I think if you experiment you'll get it to work.
I can't do much with the small jpeg picture.
Your original data should be saved in FITS & not TIFF from a mono camera.

cheers
Allan
