First Of All

You will need you own image or one without a copyright, and the latest version of swishmax.

Step.1

import your image into swishmax
then group it as a sprite and name it image.

On Scene_1 add the following code

Code Explained:
onloade() This Event Handler Function is called once when the movie loads
normal=true this is our event handler for checking if the image is colour if so true is yes and flase is no.
btext=""; this event handler is used to clear our button text we do not want any text in the button to start with.
onEnterFrame() { This Event Handler Function is called at the start of each frame of display
if(normal==true){
btext="Change To B&W"; checks to see if the image is showing colour and if so sets the button text to display Change To B&W.
else if(normal==false){
btext="Change To Colour" this basicaly means if the text contained in the normal event handler does not say true it changes the button text to say Change To colour.

Step.2

Create a button of your style and choice, add a dynamic text box to the top of the button shape or image and name the text box btext when you are happy with how your button looks group it together as a button and name it change.
Add the following code to the button.

The Above codes sets the RGB colour codes that determine how the image looks using the ColorMatrixFilter.
Now Press Ctrl+T to test your movie in the flash player to see if it works.
