How to use it
- Choose your photo.
- Move the contrast slider until it looks right.
- Download the black and white JPG.
Black and white done simply
The tool converts colours to grey with a natural weighting of red, green and blue, which keeps skin tones and skies looking right.
Add contrast for a dramatic look, or lower it for a soft, faded look. Grayscale files are also often smaller, which helps with upload limits.
Questions
Is my photo uploaded?
No. Everything runs in your browser.
Can I get colour back?
Your original file is untouched, so keep it if you may want colour again.
Will the file be smaller?
Often a little, because grey images compress better than colour ones.
