There's View
An interesting test. I believe your test image has to be flattened to work?

As you discovered, there are different ways to co
For a quick & dirty contrast test I would get them in the habit of
converting to greyscale. This converts the colour space from RGB (or CMYK)
to Greyscale...but it may not give them the best perceptual rendering of a
colour scene in B&W (greyscale) if what they **want** to end up with is a
grey
I'll take a stab at this, but other more knowledgeable people may weigh
in: as I understand color theory, the notion that there is a canonical
equivalent grayscale value for every color is somewhat of a fallacy; any
such translation relies on pyscho-perceptual assumptions about how we
perceive
Good luck documenting the diferences between the different ways to
convert an image to grayscale:

There are two methods students are using to convert their images to grayscale
for this test...
