If you haven't heard of it, FITS Liberator is a Photoshop plugin which allows you to manipulate raw images from, for example, the Space Telescope and create your own colour images with them.

It is also a great way to practice image proccessing for your own images.

I will be adding a few tutorials here at hotastronomy in the near future, showing you a few tricks to get you started using this cool tool to make your own fabulous astronomical images.
