The Color Fade Preloader animates bars and colors across the screen as your content loads. Two different colors can be designated for the beginning and end of the loading process, with the colors fading from one to the next over the course of your SWF loading. This preloader is 100% code-driven, so there are no graphics you have to include.
Implementing the Color Fade Preloader is as easy as dragging and dropping its MovieClip onto the first frame of your timeline! There are several settings that you can use to customize the colors and dimensions of this preloader. Settings are available in their own layer of the preloader’s movieclip, making it easy to create a unique preloader for your project. Try out some of the settings now by clicking on the ‘settings’ bar in the demo above!
