Uploaded the fourth version:
http://pteam.pixinsight.com/betasite/simon4/

A way to download the page is to use the "Save page as" command from your browser.
I have also uploaded your rar file here (renamed, I'm not a fan of spaces in filenames):

Hi Cheyenne,

I think its a great idea....but which page would you put it on? It doesn't sound like a homepage item.....but could it go on the "What is PixInsight" page maybe under the heading "See what PI can do for you"?

Cheers

I don't know... having some show case thumb-nail images right on the home page that if you clicked on them would bring up the "how we did this" page for that image.  The one example home page that had the stack of images along the right side would be a good start.

The idea, I think, is to not overwhelm someone looking PI, but to show off what can be done and give a feel for some of the work flows without getting into all the details.  I know that there are a gizzilion different work flows, and even that could be demonstrated by using different types of images.

This concept could be expanded to be a full tutorial, just make the "process" steps themselves links to pages that have the details, but keep the "upper pages" clean and simple.

Anyway -- just suggestions.. :)

I like the "Featured Image" section in the current homepage. I think that something like that, perhaps combined with a small gallery would help to show the power of Pixinsight.
