The only difference the base would make would be the required adjustment of the ticks. Any base would result in an identical plot; so use the default.
Partition[Plot[Log[#, x], {x, .1, 1},
Frame -> True, Axes -> False,
Epilog ->
Text[Style["base = " <> ToString[#], 14],
{.7, Log[#, .2]}]] & /@
{E, Pi, 10, RandomReal[{2, 500}]},
2] //
Grid

Mathematica experts:
I want to use LogLogPlot, say as in LogLogPlot[x,{x,.1,1}], but I want
the Log to be in base 10, not in base e as the default used.
Looking at the doc, I can't see it. No option to change the base.
I can ofcourse build my own data, and use ListPlot, but LogLogPlot
handles the ticks better automatically and it samples better. Same
question applies for LogPlot, LogLinearPlot, ListLogPlot,
ListLogLinearPlot, etc...
I am sure this is hidden somewhere in the documentation :)
