OK - here goes.
1. Head off to www.astroshack.net/Blinkers.php
2. You can see which images/targets need blinking - indicated by yes or no on the far right of the table.
3. For example, the last target, NGC3027. This target has a "latest image" and a "Primary comparison". The "latest image" is fresh. The "primary comparison" is exactly that - the next latest image. Download both the latest and primary and blink them. Email the report to me.
4. A second example - second to last target, NGC2985 has three images uploaded. A latest image, a primary comparison and a secondary comparison. As above, just download the latest image and the primary. Blink them. If you see a "candidate", you can then check the latest image with the secondary comparsion. If you still see the candidate, email me very quickly - or even phone me on 01 601 2982
For those who haven't yet blinked, I would recommend you go through the tutorial first: www.astroshack.net/SNBlink.php
It won't take you long...
Good luck folks! I'm waiting in anticipation!
Dave

Michael - how many did you blink?
There's an update I'm just about to put up with a bucket load more images needing a blink...
Cheers
dave
p.s. By the way - I haven't blinked ANY of the images!

Can I ask the blinkers to do me a favour?
I know this is early days and all and I guess we're all learning. Especially me.
If you can email me with your results, I can then better plan the future sequences of images - that mightn't make any sense to you (or even me!) right now, but trust me...
In the email, if you can follow this scheme, that would be brilliant. www.astroshack.net/mail.txt
I'm going to try and get some mroe targets - even with the high cloud, seems the imager is doing a grand job!
Cheers

Sorry!
