Ok I've been visiting this forum for years and in the past few months the idea has crossed my mind about a new plugin.  I never posted my idea because I figured it was already done, however I searched and researched and came up with nothing.

Anyways this is my idea.  When you get a message obviously the persons window appears in the taskbar, and it flashes right?...Well if you leave that open it obviously stops flashing...now what if you could tell the current status of that person just by looking at your taskbar?  Here are some photoshopped pictures to help explain my idea.



What does everyone think of this idea?

I totally agree, this would be really useful.

Maybe something for Patchou to include on Plus! Live

Thats exactly what I was thinking in the back of my head.   I know nothing about programing but this would be a useful and fun feature to have an official place in Plus!

Its not hard to do I will see what I can come up with.

Sweet, Thanks a lot   Keep me updated if you don't mind

Sorry for delayed response

i have suggested that once

read here.

Ah, my bad.  I searched the forums before I posted, guess I should have searched more   At least the picture I made shows exactly the same idea.

Good to hear its actually being looked into this time around,  Thanks Matty

Sorry about that.

I really like this idea... I'm suprised MSN didn't think of doing something like this already...

If you use tabs it already does that though

but in the tabs, it doesn't affect the task bar in a any occasion

I think this would be a good feature for StuffPlug 3. I'll inform TB about this.

It would be a good feature for sure!
