Update on the 2.0.0 release & the full manual
We are getting close to the 2.0.0 stable release and the full manual. The manual will soon become available on the website and also in PDF format. Both versions will be identical and once released, will start to follow the APP release cycle and thus will stay up-to-date to the latest APP version.
Once 2.0.0 is released, the price for APP will increase. Owner's license holders will not need to pay an upgrade fee to use 2.0.0, neither do Renter's license holders.
Hi All! I've been using APP since earlier this year and have loved it. I gave processing the Cosmic Cliffs data from JWST a try and this is what I came up with. Steps I took were:
Â
- Register the 6 filter data
- RGB Combination (assigned them colors based on what NASA recommended)
- Some modifications in HSLÂ
- Moved the Tif over to photoshop for some final color adjustmentsÂ
I did this twice, the first time didn't look as great because I forgot some data. But I used the second try as an opportunity to record the process for others if they are interested (and also to document my own steps for future-me):
Â
Been having a lot of fun with APP.Â
Oeh what a fun use-case! Something to look into myself as well. Thanks for sharing!

I had so much fun with JWST data that I'm way behind on processing pictures that I took 🤣Â
Thank you for posting this excellent tutorial.  I’ve been imaging for about one year and was interested in processing JWST data but didn’t now how to go about it.  Your video showed me everything I need to get started.
