Guifications

Guifications is dedicated to those who use Pidgin in order to communicate with their friends, providing them with a simple plugin that enhances the functionality of the IM client. What this plugin does is implement a system of popup notifications that instructs Pidgin to inform you about important events.
The extended customization options makes it a versatile tool that allows each user to adjust the settings to their particular needs.
The plugin can be instructed to notify you when a friend exists Pidgin or comes back to the computer, in situations when a file transfer gets canceled by your interlocutor or when it is completed, when a buddy goes idle or in cases when you get invited to join a conversation or you receive a new message and the list does not end here. You can select the situations you want and uncheck the ones you don't want Guifications to process.
You can decide on the position of the popup window (by default, the toastings are displayed in the bottom right corner of the screen), choose how a stack of notifications are shown, modify the maxmimum number of shown 'guifications' activate animation effects and set the display time. Customizable mouse actions help you quickly open a conversation or close the popup.
Guifications allows you to change the appearance of the popup windows by modifying the theme. The package bundles a set of predefined themes that can be used, but you can also download more or create new ones.
While Pidgin has its own ways to notify you about occurring events, Guifications allows visual alerting, just like in other popular instant messaging clients. Combining ease of use with highly configurable behavior, it can extend the capabilities of Pidgin, providing an improved user experience.
