In my not-so-humble opinion, a nicer and slightly more OO
interface would be to provide a single method that returns
a list of the values:

r,g,b = getPixelColor( x, y )

This would be nicer for treating the pixel as a vector in color
space.  And much less typing and overhead than:

r = getP_R..
g = getP_G..
b = getP_B..

If you don't want the extra values, you can always toss
them:

junk, g, junk = getPixelColor()

But opinions may vary.  Let the debate begin!
