sky at night magazine robotic telescope offer?

[Astroblagger]

Hello iv been trying to figure out how to start getting images with the one month free offer, i put in the website address stated in the magazine then create an account, then it goes through to a home page but i have no idea what to do next to start aquiring images, does anyone know how to proceed?

I've signed up for it too

You should just need to go to Use Telescope on the left hand side, and it brings you to a page with the 6 limited subjects to take pics of. As it's a demo, you can only use the settings they suggest, but I've since signed up fully for £3 a month and you get to choose exposure times, filters etc.

It's been hit and miss so far, some images have come back with the target not centred and others the tracking has been off resulting in some star trailing.
