The Moon imaged with GSTAR ccd camera

Hello There , Ive been learning to stack images in Registax .Steve Quirk has Given me help by email.Before when I used it it would only lock up.This is a shot of the moon on sat. 20/10/2007.I used the GSTAr CCD camera Purchased off Steve Massey.I recorded some small movies in windows movie maker so I could email small movies to people of the moon - deep sky etc.The only trouble is the format won't work in Registax, so I found some software on the Web that would convert it to AVI files.This software is called Smart soft Video Converter Pro.jjjnettie has given me a lot of help as well with using software like Virtualdub and DeepSky stacker.once converted to AVI I loaded it in VirtualDub and selected 107 frames . then opened Registax and loaded them in. I did a 4 piont aligment .and did some smalll wavelet adjustments as well as contrast. this is the image . I used a GSTAR camera an ED80mm refractor with star diagonaland Konus EQ4 mount to track . reguards Tony
