How would this be a plugin, it's just a custom alert view

Here is the concept. You could link to it from another screen. It could be: -a disclaimer -if you want screen 1 or 2 -"OK" Would take you to Screen 1 -"Cancel" Would take you to Screen 2 The Title, Message, and Number and Text of buttons could be customizable in the Control Panel. Jake

It would be easier and prettier to just do a xib. If you search alert view in cocoa controls you will find even nicer and cooler looking views they're quite easy to implement

Yep - Kittsy is spot on with this one - something like an alert view is not really suited to be a plugin. Plugins are really best thought of as viewControllers that interact with the online control panel. An alertview is better thought of as as a textField - it's an element that can be added to a viewController, but not a viewController in and of itself.
