Transparent Background Spinners for Ajax

Posted by Daniel Butler Thu, 04 May 2006 11:32:00 GMT

Gael Pourriel posted the following Ajax spinners with transparent, neutral color backgrounds to the Rails mailing list. Thank you, Gael; these are exactly what I needed.

Mac Spinner → Mac Spinner

Moz Spinner → Moz Spinner

It looks like you have to wait just a bit faster with the Mac spinner than with the Moz spinner. Right click each image above and select ‘Save As’ to have them for your very own web dynamo.

Update: Create your own custom spinners with whatever backgrounds you need at ajaxload.info.

Update 2: Here’s another eyeful of various AJAX Activity Indicators, a veritable hamster dance of wait-for-it-ness. My favorite:

Moz Orange → Orange Spinner

    Mac spinner has fuzzy edges and does not work well on dark backgrounds.

    Moz spinner works very well and was tested and looks good in: XP IE6, XP Firefox 2.0, Vista IE7, Vista Firefox 2.0, Vista Opera 9.24, Mac Safari Mac Firefox Linux Ubuntu Firefox Linux Ubuntu Opera

    Tested on all the above on these background colours:

    DCDCDC - light grey 000000 - black B8860B - dark brown F0E68C - light brown FF0000 - red 000080 - navy blue FFFF00 - yellow

    Our site uses skinnable dynamic backgrounds so this is a great find! Thanks very much!

    Thanks for those. By the way, that 2nd link above is broken.
