Yeah you'll have to start shooting in raw fits and look into calibration frames too. It's better to get stuck right into it at the beginning. It makes a world of difference to your data and once you do it you'll wonder why you didn't earlier. If you post a 1:1 picture it's easier to see soft focus or tracking otherwise hard to judge on a reduced size & compressed format.

i know stacking images is the way to go, but TBH, when i stack iamges i just end up with this utter bright mess, that i cant seem to make much sense from.
i guess quitting JPG's and working in RAW is the best way forward.
thanks for the kind words people, and more comments gratefully recieved.
