X-axis for Cumulative Views graph is unreadable

[rcave]

The bottom axis (months) of the the Cumulative Graphs on these 2008 articles are unreadable:

This is a problem in both IE8 and Firefox. See the attached screen shot.

Unreadable X-axis Cumulative Views graph

This has been corrected, the fix is in the PLoS templates repository.

This problem is still occurring for some articles. Is the X-axis getting mangled because the there is only two months of data but it's been ~9 months since publication?

In ALM:

{:uri=>"http://plosreports.localdomain/services/rest?method=usage.stats&article=ppat.1000202", :views=>[
 {:xml_views=>"2", :html_views=>"4659", :month=>"11", :year=>"2008", :pdf_views=>"130"}, 
 {:xml_views=>"6", :html_views=>"2123", :month=>"12", :year=>"2008", :pdf_views=>"69"}]}

Of course the real bug here is the data, but the chart should be able to handle it. I've removed minor ticks as they are becoming problematic. Maybe we can re-enable them at a later date.
