Hi, First of all, matplotlib is a very nice piece of software - I use it all the time for interactive data analysis, for posters, and for published papers.
For visualizing low-resolution vector fields, quiver() is quite nice. But for high-resolution vector fields there is a technique called "line integral convolution" that can be quite effective. Matplotlib doesn't seem to implement it, but I have written a simple line integral convolution operator I'd be happy to contribute. It's written in cython, and is quite fast and fairly general. There is no high-level interface like quiver() yet, in part because of the many ways you might want to use the operator. In fact I don't know for sure that it belongs here rather than (say) scipy. Are you interested in including this in matplotlib?
