AstroZip
AstroZip offers a simple, alternative way to create zip files. The basic idea is that we tend to collect large amounts of AVI files when capturing astro images with webcams. This can easily become tens of gigabytes in one evening. I want to save all my captured data and burn the original files to CD-R disks. Processing techniques are constantly improving, so keeping the raw data is important. But since the amount of data is large, lossless compression is needed. By using WinZip, I can compress all files without quality loss in one operation, but the result is much too large to fit on one CD-R. The alternative is then to zip each file, but that is a laborious task. AstroZip was created to help solve this problem. |

GradientXTerminator
GradientXTerminator is a gradient removal plug-in for the Windows version of Adobe Photoshopî that is fast, easy to use, and really works. It can process 16-bit or 8-bit images, grayscale or RGB color. It easily tackles large-scale gradients from light pollution, but can also handle vignetting and even tricky edge, corner, and circular gradients that are very hard to deal with otherwise. |

PlanetWarp
Of all the objects in the night sky the moon shows by far the greatest amount of detail through any telescope or imaging system. Unfortunately though only 59% of it can ever be seen from Earth and a fair portion of that area is only ever seen near to the lunar limb where the shapes and details of the craters are distorted by the oblique viewing angle. PlanetWarp is designed to get round that problem and re-project or warp your lunar images so that you see the edge features as though you were observing them from above. The program will work equally well for sunspots near the solar limb or planetary features but its primary purpose is for images of the moon. |
