Is there an app to set your desktop to greyscale?

[Himself]

well, is there?

Not that I know of, but you could always just cheat and use your color calibration tools to wipe 'em out.

That or you could cheat and use a hardware hack, buy a B&W monitor...

 

[see colon]

if you have an ati graphics card you could use the profile system to turn down the color levels and link it to an executable. i've never tried it myself, but it should be possable.

Any particular reason you want this functionality?

Go to Start > ShutDown in XP and you get a grey-scale desktop (albeit not for long!)

Just thought it would be cool for my desktop to be greyscale, yet have things like games work in colour.
