I just updated my CWStatusBarNotification library to version 2.0. The changes are fairly substantial as I refactored the entire library.

The previous version of the library was a category on UIViewController. However, I decided to refactor it to be an object instead. This makes for cleaner code since I don't have to store new properties on UIViewController and mess with objc_setAssociatedObject and objc_getAssociatedObject. It also provides easier access to settings.

The other substantial change involves all of the new animation options. There are now a total of 16 animation possibilities to choose from (4 in animations, 4 out animations). All of these animate the status bar in/out as well by taking a screenshot of the status bar and animating it.

Check out the README on the project for more detailed implementation information.
