Put the picture link in brackets, it'll show up on the page right here.

And all I can say about the moon is get yourself a nice NASA shot of the moon and pixel away, we can't critique what you haven't made yet!

It needs more saturation. It is too blue. Also, the two left stars don't look good in comparison with the rest. They seem streched.

To be less blue, it would require less saturation (move closer to grey).

Try some AA around the border. I agree that the bright blue is a bit too powerful.

Not really. The AA that's in place here doesn't really do anything to smooth out the jaggies. It just adds a grey border.

Here's an example of how to properly smooth out the circle:
