AndaleTheGreat Posted September 5, 2009 Report Posted September 5, 2009 Looking for a HowTo on creating a site preloader. I just need a second or two on Cable ISP but aDSL and comparable are a bit longer. I just want to make a fill bar, don't even need a percentage. I don't want a repeating image, I always hate when a game or site has an image that indicates something is getting done, but then it just keeps repeating with no indication there's an end coming. Don't really wanna use a flash one just cuz it seems like it would just add more time to site. Plus I've avoided using it thus far. testsite d0t DaybreakPhotography d0t org Quote
PicnicTutorials Posted September 5, 2009 Report Posted September 5, 2009 http://www.visibilityinherit.com/code/loading-gif.php Is the loading gif animated for you though? In my FX3.5 it doesn't seem to support animated gifs.... Quote

virtual Posted September 5, 2009 Report Posted September 5, 2009 Well with that "hottie" appearing, I understand why your FX is corrupted....LOL Quote
AndaleTheGreat Posted September 5, 2009 Author Report Posted September 5, 2009 i'm confused. i saw the animated gif but i also saw the girl loading. is it just that way as an example? Quote
PicnicTutorials Posted September 5, 2009 Report Posted September 5, 2009 Your welcome! Well, what disapears after page load? That should tell you what's what. The girl represents a large page loading. Look at the size of the image. Quote
AndaleTheGreat Posted September 6, 2009 Author Report Posted September 6, 2009 well is saw that, but i was confused as to whether or not it was a tutorial to cover the area with the gif until the page was loaded. I also stated i did not want to make a repeating image (like a gif) but it seems my only choice is to make a gif or convert the whole site to flash to make a preloader. I thought maybe there was a way to do it without flash or a repeat gif, i guess not tho. Quote
PicnicTutorials Posted September 6, 2009 Report Posted September 6, 2009 That loading gif can just as easily be the word "Loading", or a picture of Santa Clause. Quote
