 Some folks turn their nose up at the Seestar. "It only has a 50mm aperture," they say. "You can't take long expsures with an alt-az mount" they say.

-Details such as who created the image (required), how many subframes were combined (if they were), clock time vs integration time (if available), stacking and post-processing software used (if any), etc. are not required but will be helpful to others. 
  
-The easiest way to add an image is to copy and paste the syntax that is already here and substitute the details for the new image. +<fc #00ffff>**Then order in which the images appear is more or less random and more or less based on which one was added last. More or less.**</fc>
