Maurits,

Since "The styles are used cyclically" [help on disk] is not true (at least
for version 4.0),

data = Table[{Random[], Random[], RGBColor[Random[], Random[], Random[]],
     10^Random[Real, {-1.5, -0.9}]}, {10}];

lp = ListPlot[Take[#1, 2] & /@ data, DisplayFunction -> (#1 & )];

Show[lp, (Graphics[{#1[[3]], PointSize[#1[[4]]], Point[Take[#1, 2]]}] & ) /@
  data, DisplayFunction -> $DisplayFunction]

has to do the job.

P.S.: I send this, because it shows you how to combine the suitable axes
with the colourful graphics
