Hi all,

I've really been enjoying matplotlib, but in getting my graphs to look just
the way I want, I find myself having to just through some hoops to get
there.

my question is: is there a better way of changing spine, tick, and
ticklabels colors?

Here's what I use right now:

    [s.set_color(color) for s in ax.spines.values()]
    [s.set_color(color) for s in ax.yaxis.get_ticklines()]
    [s.set_color(color) for s in ax.xaxis.get_ticklines()]
    [(s.set_color(color),s.set_size(8)) for s in ax.xaxis.get_ticklabels()]
    [(s.set_color(color),s.set_size(8)) for s in ax.yaxis.get_ticklabels()]
    ax.yaxis.grid(which='major',linestyle='-',color=color,alpha=.3)

I realize that I should probably set the rcParam equivalents before creating
ax. But once I have an axesSubplot ax, what's the best way to fiddle with
these parameters?

you can see a full example here:
