Hi,
you are limited to 10 "named" symbols. But you can use much more symbols 
with scatter !!! Have a look at examples/scatter_star_symbols.py.

You can use:

   pylab.scatter(x,y,marker=(5,0))

produces a 5-sided regular polygon.

   pylab.scatter(x,y,marker=(5,1))

produces a starlike polygon

   pylab.scatter(x,y,marker=(5,2))

produces an asterisk.

You can even define your own symbols by defining the vertices of a polygon:

   verts = zip( [x1,x2,x3...], [y1,y2,y3,...])
   pylab.scatter(x,y,marker=(verts,0))

Note that there is a third, optional parameter for the marker keyword, 
ie. marker=(5,0,math.pi/4.) that defines the rotation of a symbol.
