The term "color model" should be used here instead of "color space". "Color space" implies a device-independent system like the Munsell system that produces identical results regardless of device or output. "Color model" is more limited in that it means a different numerical/mathematical representation of a color space. I.e HSL and HSV are alternate representations of RGB, whether it's sRGB or Adobe RGB or whatever. SharkD 20:08, 25 June 2010 (UTC)
