Helix NGC 7293

I am slowly getting used to stacking images using Deep Sky Stacker and Photoshop CS5. My JPEG images are improving, but Raw ones has me beat so far.
The finished raw image from DSS, including darks and flats, being black as in black, is a real problem to me. I have done a lot of reading on the web but have found no answer as how to lighten them in order to view the embedded image.
Attached is an JPEG image taken using my Canon 5D MK ll as prime.
50 images at 80 sec each with darks and flats, two nights ago with the moon well up in the sky.
I am quite pleased with that one.
