PitBull Unit Frames 3.0
Please note that PitBull3 is no longer being actively developed. On top of lack of active development itself, it's based on the Rock framework which itself is no longer maintained either.
I strongly recommend that users migrate to PitBull4. You can not convert your config from PitBull3 and must reconfigure.
PitBull4 itself can be found at:
http://wow.curse.com/downloads/wow-addons/details/pitbull4.aspx
You can find guides for setting it up at:
http://www.wowace.com/addons/pitbull4/pages/guide/
And the FAQ here:
http://www.wowace.com/addons/pitbull4/pages/faq/
While PitBull4 is still in beta it is fully functional and has more features than PitBull3. It is actively developed on and bug fixes made regularly.
I do not plan on making any fixes to PitBull3 once Cataclysm releases. So you have plenty of time to make the migration.

I recently switched to pitbull from xperl and I miss how the color of the health bar changed as your health went down. Is there any way to do this on pibull? and also what do people think about pitbull vs xperl?

Two questions:
Is it possible to scale the frames? I know they scale along with the UI, but they're just too big in relation to the other frames for my taste. I haven't found any scale setting in the options.
Also, is it possible to re-arrange the party frames so they're side-by-side (horizontal instead of vertical)? I want to have them display along the top of my screen.
party -> other -> grouping : direction = left or right
Hi- I can't get the TalentSpec dogtag to work properly. I downloaded the version on wow ace, and created a custom text etc. for Target, but it only shows the talent spec when I target MYSELF. Nothing shows up when I target anybody else, no matter how close they are, etc. Anybody have a clue what i am doing wrong? PLEASE help :) I'm trying to make the switch from xperl but I really miss this feature.
EDITED TO ADD: it works when i switch targets several times for certain players in Shattrath. Not necessarily only within my own faction.. it seems fairly random. Yes, I'm in range.. any thoughts?

What is so awesome about Syntax Error and Unknown tag AFKDND? Mr Ckknight can you explain that cuz I dont understand. And the most recent version of pitbull does not appear on FuBar and when I try to /pitbull nothing happens when i press enter, I dont even get and "Wrong Command"-kinda thing, I just cant press enter and send the line. Also when i updated the debuffs and buffs of my target changed placed from upper right and left to lower right and left. Is that really in the patch notes or did I just miss them?
Will this be fixed or is the project off?
Oh and:
Accepting paypal donations to ckknight@gmail.com
Haha, good luck with that
So Pitbull is broken.
Syntax Errors all over the place.
Switching to Xperl until this gets resolved.
i accidently disabled the health on target how do i turn it back on?
When i enter a party, all members in that party is shown as "Unknown tag AFKDND". I dunno how to get it to show their names, not even when get close to them.
I dont know why, but when i install this new version of pitbull, WoW, still says it's old version i had to modifie its .toc file but i am getting strange UI problems... for example me and my party members, after a while or just instantly, we get like Offline taged... I repeat it says to me that it's old version if i only download and install... The old version worked perfectly fine to me.
Ok, I just DL this and was attempting to configure it. Unfortunately the target frame, from what appears to be the blizz ui, still shows up. I have it disabled within pitbull; but it's still there. I am thinking of converting from X-Perl, but if I cannot get rid of the additional target frame then I can't. I didn't see any posts related to this; but hopefully someone has seen it. Any ideas?
Does pitbull have some type of healer mode like X-perl does where it shows negative health?
Well i have the problem that there stand i am offline in my hp bar..... What up with that....
When i try to install it it says addon is out of date...
I keep recieving "Syntax Error", and I cannot config my pitbull ui with typing /pitbull, what is wrong? anyone can help me?
Thanks!

I'm having this same problem. It started when I installed fubar. Basically I can't change any pitbul settings at all unless I disable fubar entirely.
I've got a problem. Where my manacurrent/manamax is supposed to be, there is just a gray box. It only happens on this character. My others work just fine. Even made a new character and it worked on that one too. It's set to Outside, Above-Left. Dunno what's making it do this on this character.
http://darkgamers.frih.net/WoWScrnShot_033008_110444.jpg
Edit: Even tried copying one of my other characters' WTF folder for this one's, still has the grey box.
And while writing this, I think I may know why it's doing that. Logging back in to test my theory.
And I was right. It was for the built in totem timers. Just moved the totem timers to the bottom middle.
