Revision title: Updated workflow in PI

NGC891 and few neighbors. I recently rebuilt my CGX-L mounting (down to the last nut and bolt). Over a 4 night imaging run I captured 263 5 min subs. Dropped only 6 subs total over the 4 nights, keeping 257 subs. Now this was only at 915mm FL and a 3.75micron pixel, but I am very happy with the rebuild of the mounting. I will do the same rebuild on a CGX mounting hoping for similar results.

Captured some of the dust cloud in a 21hour 25min stack.

This image was generated with the AutoIntegrate script and PixInsight. I stacked everything with PI then ran the AutoIntegrate script on the Master generated from preprocessing. I did tweak the defaults put it only took 5.5 minutes to execute.

25 Flats and Flat-Darks from each of the 4 nights and a 300sec MasterDark from my Dark Library.

The “AstroBin Image of the Day and Top Picks”, or IOTD/TP, is a long-running system to promote beautiful, interesting, peculiar, or otherwise amazing astrophotographs, with a focus on technical excellence. Learn more.

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
