The problem with telling what can be done to fix an image, is that it is not always that simple. Some images posted are unrecoverable. Although the best attempts are made to assist sometimes it is easier to not post a reply than be rude and say the image is a dead loss. When dealling with people in person this type of reply is possible but over an open forum it is easilly misconstrued.

Imagers like Jase have been very kind offering invaluable assistance to me over the last few years and as a general rule I try to at least comment on almost all images posted. Sometimes my advise is scant if not lacking totally but this can be the result of things outside my control and I dare say I am not the only one who suffers from pressures outside astronomy. I may choose to just comment about an image with words like. "Nice image, Take longer subs or use darks" and although short and sharp this may well be the most important upgrade I can explain. Sometimes I look at an image and think what do I post but then think back to the help I have recieved over the years and the help I still need.

It's always easy to look at an image and say Pretty Pix but it takes a bit more effort to be constructive. Come on everyone try. Me too.
