Need Screen Aggro Warning

I just switched from X-Perl to Pitbull and I have lost the Aggro text warning that was in the middle of the screen (it was movable). I was wondering if anyone knows of a mod that does the same thing. I really don't want to load x-perl and disable everything but that.

Thanks

unless i am mistaken, omen should have aggro warnings built in. fubar has an omenfu plug in that will display aggro, or %of aggro on the bar itself, its kinda neat. i personally like the huge red AGGRO from xperl. makes me tank happy

I'm pretty sure I've seen some options relating to threat in Pitbull, there's prolly something similar in there if you dig around.

Thanks for the replies. Messed around some and while both Omen and Pitbull have threat options, nothing seemed to give you the beautiful red "AGGRO" on the screen like X-Perl.

So . . .

for anyone that loves that red aggro warning from x-perl but likes Pitbull better:

you can down load x-perl, and the only things you need to have checked to load are Core, Options and Raid helper.

To activate you need to go to the Helper tab on the option gui and check the target counters box and aggro warning. Everything else can be disabled and it seems to have zero impact on pitbull or any other addons.

I think I found just the thing (switched from xperl last yesterday and also miss the Aggro notifier)
Going to try it out tonight... AggroNotifier - Addons - Curse

Doesn't that Aggro alert from XPerl just follow the mob's target? That's not exactly a good representation because many mobs have attacks or abilities they cast on a 2nd target, so it can show aggro switching when that isn't the case. If they fixed that, disregard. I haven't used XPerl or Perl Classic in a long time.

Pitbull can color their unit frame health bar red. This is useful in 25-mans because at a glance you can see among other things, which healer a spawn is headed to on the Al'ar fight.

I'll check out AggroNotifier.
