Title: Using icon for " Loaading .. "
Post by: meetdilip on April 19, 2016, 10:57:14 am
I can see text based " Loading.. " message on top of the forum after 1.1 upgrade. Just wondering replacing it with a GIF indicating the action.

Do you need a whole library for a little loading icon?

Please go with a loading circle every smartphone uses!

I hate loading circles. :P

But where does this "loading…" occur? I haven't seen it.

In what scenario? Like previewing a post or something?

I can't see it in mobile view, but it appears while the gap between submitting a thread and getting it displayed

Its the  slider "bar" that appears at the top of the page when an ajax request is made (Preview, likes, mark as read, etc etc)

Tends to only show up if the site is running slow or the network is slow, but its fired ahead of the data callback and cleared in the callback.

TBH It rarely shows up for me
