The strange thing is I made the connection when I saw a commercial for the Brita Filters. I saw the Brita filter logo and then almost instantly thought of the loading box object. Of all the things to make the connection with I remember that loading box.
This is really cool! I found the Youtube loading one too. In the top row, third from the left.
yeah there are a lot of tools developers have at their disposal so we don't have to try to re-invent the wheel. only thing is as far as javascript goes. there are a lot of plugins and i'm glad that the source is open. because a plugin only ever does 70% of what you really need I for. The last 30% is all imagination and a lot of code sifting.
this is good for testing out standalone javascript. it actully loads the js library of your choice
