Statement of need
The default appearance of ggplot2 graphics is unattractive. Tick marks point outward (away from the data). Grid lines are provided (are we in jail?). Borders are black (taking focus away from the data). The background color is gray, not white.
This package (MKHthemes) provides a nice-looking theme for ggplot2 graphs, solving the problems identified above.
