ummm I don't see anything... what app should you have frontmost?
what OS are you running?

err IC...
checkout your universal access pref pane and look in the seeing tab (should be frontmost)

see the command?
I personally like the grayscale option... its like a "theme"

of course the reason it didn't work for me is because I have all off those options off... (although I do have the "flash screen for alerts" option on... I don't know how that overrides the rest of the system, but I like it...)

It's a universal access thing.

I actually liked browsing with it on, but it screws up Safari's link behavior. If you launch Safari, switch and then go back without quitting, Safari will no longer display visited links as a different color.
