It's an image of M42 and I can see color in the pictures right out of the camera, but not ones that were done after stacking in registax.

Hi,
DSS does this as well. When you save as TIFF format you are basically compressing all the brightness levels into 0 to 64k of possible brightness levels.
You need to take the registax image and adjust it in photoshop using curves followed by levels adjustment for a number of iterations to streeeettttcch out the brightness levels in the image.
If you look in the articles on this site there is a good tutorial by Eric (Ezystyles) that explains just how to do this.
