Annie's Astro Actions Version 2.0 Released!
I have just completed some updates and addition of several new actions to Annie's Astro Actions. Version 2.0 has officially been released and sent out to all those who ordered Version 1.0. New actions include:
- Create Watermark: Creates a watermark across your image to protect your images against copyright infringement
- Reduce Vignetting Method #1: One of two methods I am providing that will help reduce vignetting in your image (needed if you dont take flats) ... try both methods to determine which will work best for your image
- Reduce Vignetting Method #2: Second method for reducing vignetting. This one requires less user interaction
- Gradient Remove Method #1: One of two methods I am providing that will help to remove gradients in your image and balance your background color ... try both methods to determine which will work best for your image
- Gradient Remove Method #2: Second method for reducing vignetting. This one requires less user interaction
- Reduce Star Bloating: Reduces star bloating that can occur when stretching your image
