Ajaxload: A free spinner generator

| | Comments (4)

Ajaxload is a nifty do-one-thing-well web-based service. Poke in a few parameters, and out pops a little animated spinner graphic. It's optimized against the background color of your choice, and free for you to download and use however you wish.

In web applications, you most often see these graphics used wherever there's AJAX. Their sudden appearance and rolling motion help reassure users that something is happening, and they should stand by and await further results. They often look something like this: tiny_spinner.gif. (That, in fact, is one I just created with Ajaxload for use with Planbeast, a new side project of mine.)

I somehow failed to find this site when searching on likely keywords via Google, earlier this afternoon; I found it instead by its being linked to from some Scriptaculous documentation. Many thanks to Catherine Roman for this simple and useful service.
