Starting to think I've bitten off more than I can chew with Pixinsight

I felt that way too. It’s modular though, just learn and use one module at a time. I started off using a mixture of Pi and ps until I learnt all the processes I used to do in ps.

Like Gavin said, it's not so difficult if you start with a very simple workflow and then just incrementally add to that.

It's an acquired taste but it definitely grows on you.

I found Inside Pixinsight a great place to start.
As Rick says, i started with simple workflows that I stuck to - noise reduction and stretching. And gradually built it up.

One of the best things I found was saving processes on the desktop with settings I need and saving them all as a project. Then it's all there in front of you - one for making masters, calibrating/stacking, linear and non-commercial processing etc.
