David, Interesting, but I'm not sure this is a good approach. I really don't see the point of the voting. What I think would be more useful would be a set of matplotlibrc files with examples of their effect on at least a few plot types. > > Definitely time to update the defaults!! Or maybe include a representative set of rcParams combinations to make it easier for people to choose a design that suits their purpose. This could be part of a toolkit.
