Pretty Loaded and the Art of Loading

Pretty_Loaded.jpg

In the great-big world of the Internets, there are so many elements that are almost constantly overlooked. Take the loading indicator. It's something that we've basically grown accustomed to ignoring. And in most instances the reason for that is fairly simple: they are boring.

Every now and again, however, I stumble across a loading screen that briefly stops me in my tracks. Ten or so per year might even cause me to reload the page, just so I can see the loader again. Fortunately, I've recently discovered that there are equally passionate  people bigger nerds than I over at Big Spaceship, who have actually created a site solely devoted to the art of the loading screen. Other agencies submit their best loaders for consideration, with the result a somewhat mesmerizing montage: the infinite loader.

Anyway, click and enjoy the site that's all about the waiting.
