Screenshot of throbber from media viewer in BetaFeatures

The media viewer throbber in the BetaFeatures extension appears to be low resolution and looks kind of bad. Screenshot attached.
Comment 1 MZMcBride 2014-01-12 09:13:44 UTC
It's called a spinner in the code. :-)
Comment 2 MZMcBride 2014-01-13 03:43:15 UTC
Mark: did this get fixed? I think the throbber/spinner may be gone now (I looked at mediawiki.org briefly and it didn't seem to be there).
Comment 3 Mark Holmquist 2014-01-14 00:15:33 UTC
It got "fixed" but only in that we don't use this library anymore. In core, we should fix the bug more resolutely by using APNG or just a properly alpha'd GIF. Test on a variety of coloured backgrounds to make sure.
Comment 4 Mark Holmquist 2014-01-14 00:17:18 UTC
Note: The library in question is resources/jquery/jquery.spinner.js - the files that need changing are resources/jquery/images/spinner.gif and resources/jquery/images/spinner-large.gif - just so you know where to go :)

[[mw:User:Splarka/Throbber]]

If this bug report is only about MediaWiki core's generic throbber, this is probably a duplicate.

Another kind of spinner

Was wondering if we could go for another kind of spinner ? Not necessarily this.
Comment 7 Tisza Gergő 2014-02-11 19:23:06 UTC
Oops, sorry. Just wanted to rename it.
