Re Processing never ends!

Well, in my never ending trek to find the best processing methods, I have once again attempted to use another program with another process for stacking and aligning subs.
This time I used AIP4WIN Ver2 using Sigma Clip average stack on my Markarian Chain data files. I did this to see if I could get rid of one annoying thing that I kept seeing after stacking, small black spots in dim stars, like gaps.
So, I ran all the subs through AIP4WIN and came up with this, which I find to be superior in a few ways.
I would like to know what you guys think about the color, detail and fine point on stars.

The stars are pretty hard but holy cow does that image go deep or what. I didn't get to see the other version, where can I see that?
