Hi Flavio,

Try clearing the figure between saves with clf.  Or else manage the
different figures the "figure" and "close" commands.

The default mode of matplotlib is to continue adding stuff to the same
figure, so you need to clear axes with "cla", clear figures with
"clf", close figures with "close", create new figures with "figure",
and manage the hold state with "hold", "ion", "ioff" and "ishold".
See the documentation for all of these commands at
http://matplotlib.sf.net/matplotlib.pylab.html

Hope this helps,
