More saturation?? I'll never win a Malin award at that rate

I already upped it and I am happy with where it is. More and it starts to look unnatural.

I did both. One image's masters are in a hard drive in a crashed laptop but I have the finished image. A lot of the luminance was stacked together. I kept finding earlier images of it. Registar helped with some registering. You'd think Photoshop would have a decent registering tool.
The Transform function is dinosaur but if the images are close you can use it. CCDstack does not handle colour images well. The other choice would be Images Plus which handles colour images really well.

Greg.
