Hello there. I have a collumn with images, my question would be if is possible to change it to gray or vice-versa. If it’s possible how would you do it? ---

Do you mean you want to conditionally show an alternative (blank) image? You could use the [Image from Colour](https://www.glideapps.com/plugins/color-to-image) plugin to generate a blank image, and then create an if-then-else column to determine whether to show the original image or the blank image. ---

Thanks for the reply @Darren_Murphy. I really wanted to keep the same image but with a blur effect over it and also make the photo black and white. Is it possible? ---

You might be able to get close to what you need with the [Adjust Colour](https://www.glideapps.com/plugins/adjust-color) plugin. If that’s not good enough, then I think your next best option would be Cloudinary.

Yep use Cloudinary: ```auto ![](upload://xKikhhDcIbTz26EXgMObjH5EC21.jpeg) ``` ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/e/c/ec8374d707a1082b7b12beea31446c792be29a05.jpeg) `https://res.cloudinary.com/glide/image/fetch/e_grayscale/e_blur:1000/https://cdn.sallysbakingaddiction.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/easy-homemade-soft-pretzels.jpg` ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/4/8/48bc5bb4a36729601c07c16859d9b4b3f202aa8d.jpeg) ---

Really wish there could be a “Cloudinary plugin” or something with image effects directly inside Glide. Set blur strength, color, etc. Would be a really cool addition! ---

Do you mean when you switch the choices the inline list doesn’t change or do you mean the image doesn’t convert to grayscale? ---

The basics is: - IF SIDE(NUMBER/user-specific) IS 2 - INCREMENT -1 - IF SIDE(NUMBER/user-specific) IS 1 - INCREMENT 1 1 Is for colored image 2 Is for gray image I have a column with the original image link. Also a Template column, it replace its strings from column image. If these setup i can manage how images are placed in the app. ---
