Hi Steven.
Yes it's worth downloading.
I like the results & it's faster than trying to stretch the image yourself.
I still had to manually adjust the gradient in Fitswork 4 - of course - but
I fixed all the LRGB before processing them.
I'll always use it from now on.
It's actually a stand alone program so can be used with any
processing package that will accept a TIFF file.
You start off with a FITS file & end up with a nicely stretched TIFF file.
I didn't think it would make much difference as the camera is 16 bit
but of course DSS outputs 32 bits.

I just redid the full frame & placed it on Flickr.
It seems to be better.

cheers
Allan
