WooHoo it worked! Thank you again, but of course I have just a couple
additional questions.

I'm using colorbar but the numerical values for each color are
reported as 0's, even though it is displaying color variations.

code: Colorbar, Range=[Min(image), Max(image)], /vertical
where: Min(image) = 0
Max(image)=0.1648

Why might they not be displaying the numerical values?

Is there any way to project the image in a spherical projection though
idl? If not, no worries I can always slap the image into a graphical
program to do it.
