The various Working Spaces shouldn't look much if at all different on
screen. Are you talking output?
If you convert a file into spaces like BruceRGB or PhotoPhoto and you see
"nuclear" appearing previews then it leads me to believe you are not viewing
them in an ICC aware application like Photoshop 6 or latter. Such
colorspaces outside an ICC aware application will preview strangely but the
data is fine, the preview is incorrect. Inside of Photoshop, a tagged file
in ProPhoto and sRGB should preview almost identically. Outside of such an
application, they look radically different but the issue isn't the Working
Spaces but rather the stupid application that has no idea what the meaning
of the numbers are (it can't recognize the embedded profile).
