An interesting test. I believe your test image has to be flattened to work?
Cheers,

Subject: [Gimp-user] When black and white is not black and white
Some very interesting responses here, thank you :-)
This would be interesting material for students wanting an extra study at a
more
advanced level beyond level 1 NCEA; simply creating a poster or brochure
with
"good" design principles (contrast, alignment, repetition, proximity etc).
It would make a good topic for Level 3, having a student analyse the
different
hex levels of the grayscale conversion methods and to try and reverse
engineer
the algorithms which may have been used.
I'm attaching a gimp image in color which "detects" which method is used
when
turning it to grayscale. (Could be used to demonstrate to students that
grayscale conversion is not always the same). I was entertaining spending
more
time with the image, perhaps making a version where there is blue snow that
make
the writing invisible until grayscale is applied. (Just a bit busy with
marking
and lesson planning at the moment)
But thank you for your replies - great information.
