3. Select 'Browse Files' and choose your image (it currently supports TIF, FIT and FITS files - Ideally, the images need to be un-edited and preferably stacked to get the most out of it)

4. Select your different settings depending on how you want your image edited, the options are briefly explained below:

Model - Choose between 'Standard' and 'Smart Telescope' depending on what you used to capture your image. Smart Telescopes include the Seestar S30 and S50, Dwarf 2, 3, Vespera etc.

Cropping - Control the level of cropping applied to the image: Small = 5% off each edge, Medium= 10% off each edge, Large = 20% off each edge, Auto = Uses our own algortihm to determine where to crop, None = Dont apply a crop at all (Only use this if you have already cropped your image)

Stretch - The intensity of the stretch can be finely tuned between 10% - 100%

Contrast - Three levels of contrast can be chosen, low, medium or high

Saturation Boost - Three levels of saturation boost can be chosen, low, medium or high or you can choose none. This saturation boost is applied to the full image

Output Curves Stretch - Apply a curves stretch at the end of the editing process to increase the contrast and make the details pop. Choose from low, medium or high for increasing levels of curves stretch.

Star Reduction - Choose from three levels of star reduction in your image. Low applies a small reduction, Medium applies a reasonable amount of reduction and High applies a large amount of star reduction to your image.

Starless Image - You can choose whether you want the final image to have the stars in it or remove them. If you want to remove them, you can select later on whether you want the stars to be sent to you as an editable file.

Colour Palette - You can now select from 5 different colour palettes to apply to you images:

Normal - This doesnt change the colour palette of your image at all and retains the colours that were captured in your image.

Black & White - This creates a monochrome version of your image.

Standard HOO - This implements a standard One-Shot Colour transformation into the HOO palette. This will typically create a yellow and blue style image from a one-shot RGB image.

Foraxx HOO - This implements the popular Foraxx method for HOO colour, using dynamic blending of the channels. This will typically create a more orange colour palette.

Foraxx SHO - This implements the popular Foraxx method for SHO colour, using dynamic blending of the channels. This will typically create a redder colour palette.

Note - These colour transformations only work with RGB colour image data - it cannot transform a monochrome image.

Colour Boost Colour - Apply a boost to specific colours in your image - choose from Red, Blue, Yellow or All colours.

Colour Boost Level - Select the level to boost the colour selected in the Colour Boost Colour option.

Editable File - You can select whether you get sent an editable file with your edited JPG image. This editable file will be the same as the final JPG you are sent, but you can open it in an editor to make further changes. Select No (JPG only) to only be sent the edited file, or select FITS or TIFF

Starless Image File - If you selected to have a starless image, you can select whether you would like to be sent the editable file of just the removed stars. This is so you can recombine them afterwards if you would like to.
