NGC3372 - Carina (yeah.. another one)

Looking for some feedback on my Photoshop attempts.
So far i've been pushing out terrible stuff and i was trying to figure out what i was doing wrong.
Most amazingly, i knew what my problem was; i just never stopped to think about it. Wasted nights on this when it was easily fixed...
Stacked with darks+lights now... oh wow, processing just became that much easier and my images don't look like junk after a curves or level pass!

Subs:
10 x 160 @ 1600 and
4 x 300 @ 1600

50%: http://core-au.net/astro/ngc3372/ngc3372-50.jpg

100%: http://core-au.net/astro/ngc3372/ngc3372-100.jpg

(disregard left side of image - optics problem).

-edit-
Another go, more nebulosity this time.

And the problem i was having before has re-appeared, the center of the image is lighter than the corners. May have to check my light frames.
