Pidgin uses, in addition to the system, and even its own set of icons (http://developer.pidgin.im/doxygen/dev/html/pidginstock_8h.html), which includes icons that just described, but no images.
You can create your own set of icons. Icons can be placed on the path /usr/share/pixmaps/pidgin/buttons, or ~/.purple/pixmaps/pidgin/buttons.
offtop: A couple of months ago, Google mutilated text search and image search, so I had to abandon it and move on yandex.ru, and now they have disfigured the Google translator miserable likeness Punto Switcher/gxneur. Why mutilate it is rare that you could make available for use? ??????? :(

You need to install pidgin-dev and libpurple-dev first.
Good luck!

Custom statuses in the status bar, I think, is not worth output it:)

I guess what could be a problem.
In the new version, which I hope will be released this week, it should not.
In general, the new version is a lot of code was rewritten, and the functional change - the status can be changed through the menu. Old bugs will not, but there will be new! : D
Thank you for your message!
