I'm working on a site that allows users to upload photos and optimizes them when they are uploaded... One problem, many of the users don't understand that the pictures that they take with the 1 Trillion megapixel camera tend to be pretty big, and optimize more slowly... This means that users to my site when images are uploaded have to wait about 10 secs depending on the number of pictures that they upload and file sizes... What I wanted to do was create a moving graphic that shows that the site is actually doing something while the person waits those seconds. U know, one of those things going around in a circle.... or like when you run a Yahoo travel search how the ball goes from left to right... Any thoughts here, think it should be easy... this is just an animated gif right? Appreciate the help... Starke
Actually, I found something after a bit of searching and some help from some friends... I'm talking about a progress bar... they sent me to some examples: http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex11/xpprogressbar.htm
