Interesting, but there are some issues: I couldn't get to black or white..? Also, you are mistaking luminosity for brightness: luminosity is a device factor, brightness is a color factor.

HSL (Hue Saturation Luminosity) - bring your mouse all the way down to bring saturation to 0% or close and then scroll down to bring luminosity down to black or up to white.

Ummm, sorry but that's not correct; it is Hue, Saturation and Lightness. You are confusing luminosity with lightness:

I stand corrected then. It's not really that important anyways.
