Bubbling Testube Preloader

Nice preloader for a scientific or “labs” type of website. The bubbles and the liquid will continue to animate even if load progress stalls – I’ve attempted to demonstrate this in the preview. The bubbles are dynamically created. Enjoy!

Expected Use
This preloader expects that you are “preloading” the same SWF that it is in. The easiest way to use it is go put the “Preloader” MovieClip in the first frame with a stop() action. Then place your content after frame 1.

Customizing
All code for the preloader is on the “Actions” layer of the “Preloader” MovieClip. At the top of the code you will see a function called “onLoaded”. This function is called when the preloader is finished. Add your custom code in here to continue on to your flash content. Usually something like _root.play() would suffice.

Colors can be edited in the Library.
