This is a handy hint if you want to see quickly how your artwork converts to grayscale, a pretty useful tool if colour issues are starting to detract from the image overall. (I use it a lot!)
Simply Select All, then go to the Filter menu and select Colours then Convert to Grayscale. Worth noting is that any patterns or gradients within the image will retain their colour values but like in the image above, you can use this to your advantage.
