Pidgin Naiads Tray for Pidgin 2.7
Source (link to git-repo or to original if based on someone elses unmodified work): Add the source-code for this project on opencode.net
This work is zima's (http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Pidgin+Naiads+Tray?content=114979) own.
Pidgin's 2.7 uses now GtkStatusIcon, and it seems it breaks old directory scheme for tray icon without notice. I renamed the files to reflect those changes and keep this awesome work updated.
I'm afraid the local install of the icons doesn't work anymore, I had to install them to /usr/share/pixmaps/pidgin/tray/. If anyone can see to that, it would be nice to have again the option of installing it locally only (besides you don't lose the fancy icons with every pidgin update).
Just copy the 'hicolor' directory inside this package to /usr/share/pixmaps/pidgin/tray/, replacing the old one.

Thanks for the work, the icon theme is my favorite so far.

Indeed it is Saturday and I've been drinking some beers ;-)
Now I've packed both within the same file. Enjoy.
And I should also notice this is not my work at all, I just updated zima's package. Kudos to them.

All due credits to Zima ;)
I am using Pidgin 2.7.1 and just copy pasting old Naiads icons those used to go in ~/.local/pixmaps/pidgin/tray didn't work.
Pidgin has changed its naming scheme so the icon for showing online status is "pidgin-tray-available.png" and not only "tray-available.png". Also the folder names are changed to "16x16", "22x22" etc. (I compiled from source so I can't tell for sure if folder names "16", "22" will work or not.)
For conversion I wrote this trivial script http://pastebin.com/Q3g5AhWf to rename icons correctly. You will have to run it from all folders one by one ;) This works and I can see new icons in tray right after Pidgin restart.

There's a delay in the posting, the packages were already fixed. Just remember to put the extracted 'hicolor' directory inside '/usr/share/pixmaps/pidgin/tray/'.
