Default Antares Milkyway Area - Which is better?

Hi all, since it's a rainy day, I had a chance to redo some of my exposures of the Antares Milkyway area with Deepsky stacker. I previously posted this shot some time ago when I manually stacked them in Photoshop7, but this new program is miles better, the detail it preserves is much greater. I am very happy with this shot, but due to minor processing differences in ps7, I'm really caught between the 'yellow' version and the 'blue' version'.
This is a stack of 6 exposures plus one dark at IS0 800, Canon ef 85mm lens at f4.0, total exposure time is 30mins, piggybacked on a C8.

Which one Guys??? I need your help !! I hope you think it's an improvement
Keith..

only my opinion--the blue looks prettier!!!! By using my monitor as a makeshift blink comperator, it appears more nebulosity is visible with the blue than yellow, while some fainter stars are brighter under yellow than blue.

I choose blue.

On my CRT the yellow looks like it shows a bit more detail Keith.
