Works on Firefox and IE (java 1.6beta/windows xp pro), but for some reason, not on IETab (firefox plugin that embeds IE in ff), go figure... Fortunately people only use IETab to test stuff/websites that don't work on firefox, so no need to worry.

Firefox pc, java 1.5/ winxp, and only thing i noted was that the animation wasn't centered according to the applet's size.. But that's not really a bug.. or is it.. Anyway, works good enough for me to use! So again, thanks a bunch! Smiley

cool. thanks for checking. if you update or fix anything, let me know so i can fix my code too.

i'd be happy to include a better loading-gif if one of you wants to contribute one. Smiley

i think i'm gonna look into a loading-class for applets next. this will decrease the startup-time and will let you customize the loading-screen.
