I'm glad you found it helpful.

Hey Mike,

I'm always happy to contribute what little I can to matplotlib.  
However, if it's going to be an official example, it should be cleaned  
up a bit (see attached). Summary of changes.

* My original example (i.e. not Josh's fault) didn't play well with  
namespaces (i.e. from pylab import *). This has been changed to use  
the proper imports (i.e. np and plt).

* Also, there were problems with rgrids when I originally wrote the  
code, which has since been fixed (at least on trunk it is). This  
eliminates the need to manually draw a grid.

* I made a few other clean ups for clarity. (Josh: I hope you don't  
mind, I switched the data for f4_base and f5_base so that I could  
remove the associated comment.)

* Final note. The polygon frame no longer works properly and I  
couldn't really figure out how to fix it.

Best,
-Tony
