Suggestion to add GIFs/screenshots to the README #185

Given its function, some visual examples would help in choosing dependencies.

Thanks, that's a good idea, I also love READMEs with gifs. Unfortunately this lib basically just calls to system apis. So the screenshot between this lib and another on a (lets say) KDE desktop or would not differ at all. In fact, notifications look much different between kde, gnome, windows and mac desktops. I would have a plethora of screenshots that would not not give you any more information other than what the one desktops native notifications look like. Do you still think this would be useful to you?

I too love READMEs with GIFs! I think even if you just provided as a reference a GIF solely from the desktop environment that you use and perhaps a note about appearances differing across other environments, that would be helpful and would spruce up the README (which is already short and sweet!).
