<grumble> Ok, it fixes the problem if I pass dpi=72 to savefig(). Curiously, passing dpi=72 to Figure() does not have the same effect. So now how do I fix it? I'm really not sure what's going wrong here. If I had to guess, it's a problem between figure size being in inches while I'm drawing in pixels (still don't know how that works, because there's no way those barbs are 9 pixels long). Ideas?
