I've been having problems getting it to install in Ubuntu (I made and installed it in Windows) using sudo nautilus.
However, I got it to work in terminal by going into the directory (cd ~/Desktop/status) and copying the files (sudo cp -r * /usr/share/pixmaps/pidgin/status) so I'd suggest trying it that way if you have problems.
Another thing I had to do when I installed it wrong was to completely uninstall and reinstall (still keeps your contacts though, I believe)
Not quite sure why it doesn't like to install sometimes...
Wish I could be of more help on the tech end...
Ya, I added the path for Ubuntu (probably the same as all Linux and Unix)
I just figured Windows users were the only ones that needed to be told how to install! :P
(No offense!)

An update is coming soon with full support for all dimensions! From 11x11 to 48x48!
Thanks for credit. :)
Maybe you should add copy to /usr/share/pixmaps/pidgin seeing most users here don't use windows ;)

I actually had to look where they belonged, never really looked into customizing pidgin before untill now ;) Thanks for the icons btw
oh P.S Your path is wrong ;) , remove local from it
o.0 I have no "C:\\Program Files\\Pidgin\\pixmaps\\pidgin" on my *nix box ;) Did you get lost in the address bar?
Haha good catch. For some reason it added those when I copied.
