That's what I find - NONE of us 'know everything' - and I often find that I learn somehthing totally unexpected from watching these VidTuts. I remember on one of Juan's early videos where the image was zooming in and out, inexplicably. And then I realised that you could zoom in and out usingthe scroll-wheel on the mouse !!

I almost had a 'gut-feeling' that you hadn't been aware of 'my way' (after all, I hadn't EVER thought about doing it 'your' way). Of course, neither way is 'the' way - it is whatever the user feels most comfortable with, after all.

Hence the desire to 'bang out' a sequel as fast as possible (less than 90 minutes this time, and that included downloading and watching yours twice, making and watching mine three times, uploading to the PI server, proving that my version would download, and then watching the download as final verification)

Hopefully others will stop being 'microphone-shy' and will help us all out with their little tips'n'tricks - Juan can hold 'Los Oscaros' at the end of the year  :D

Oh, and I meant to mention

the process to container icon / instance trick

was something I picked up back in the 'bad old' days of Pix LE - I don't think there was any 'other' way to do things back then - although I also cannot remember what I used to use it for now  ???

Harry and Niall,

You're doing a really great work. Your excellent videos are an invaluable resource to all PI users.

I'll have to work hard to keep you at bay guys, you are rising the bar! Poor Alex...  :cheesy:

how did you go with that Harry?  BTW i noticed you had another video up - the process container.  thanks for explainiaing that one!  I found that extremely informative, though i am not sure if i would use a process like that but will give it a go sometime.  I fear that there are heaps of functions i know nothing about yet in PI.

Hi

Not really tutorials as there is not a lot of detail in them , but there a couple of video's on my website http://www.harrysastroshed.com/pixinsighthomeinter.html
showing how I did a quick process of data provided by dave ( M51) and the sword of orion provided by Houghy ( thanks for letting me use them )
They are one shot video's so please forgive the stumblings and better results could be had with a little more care

They might give people an idea of what you can achieve with non hubble data   8)
