Nice image David! The final colour appears to have turned out quite well, no matter how you got there! I'm not sure about the hot pixels - it would be good if you could post a full sized image on pbase or something. The core is a little overcooked as you say - I would suggest reading Wodaski's book "The AstroZone System". I've just read it, and he shows how to use curves in Photoshop to stretch the image without burning out the core; it's quite a good book but a bit expensive ($180 I recall).
