1. Load all your files into PS by going to the File Menu, Scripts, Load files into stack. A dialog box will pop up, just browse for all your star trail files and click Open - don't mess with anything else in the dialog.
2. PS will load all your files into a single image, but you'll only see the top layer. You'll need to select all the layers BUT the very bottom layer (click the top layer, hold SHIFT, click the SECOND layer from the bottom.
3. With the layers selected, change the layer blend mode to "Lighten" - instant star trails, but no good way to fill the tiny little gaps. Still works pretty good though.

The second image is stunning, probably the coolest star trails shot I have seen, and I like star trails a lot...but the post I quoted...just made my life easier...I was doing the stacking and blending manually with each frame...it took FOREVER...thanks for posting that.
