Hi,
I wanted to say that I've been more than satisfied with StarTools and have been able to get some great results. I use Nebulosity for capture and stacking, then StarTools for just about everything else, except for a little final processing with Gimp 2.9. This image is a HaLRGB taken with a AT106 and a ATIK 460EX. I've been at astrophotography about a year and this image is on of the first I was really happy with. I really like the Heal function where I can remove stars that get too bloated from aggressive stretching and replace them with higher quality and more colorful stars from a moderately stretched image. Wipe does a great job removing gradients for the most part too.
