Waiting for things to upload is always a long, droll process. Why not make it cool?
• I'm using Morf to do bounce-back easing in CSS3.
• The "+" glyph turns into a spinner!
• The image animates up because it's uploading. Eh? Eh?
• I wrote the materialise animation in <canvas>, and then I died inside because it took forever and was horrible.
I like that the image animates up for the sake of metaphor, but isn't the file's data transferred from top to bottom? If so, this might work if you used a client-side copy of the image to make the animation.

I’m not going to even try to make an animated GIF this time :p Just go ahead and watch the video.

@Hans, yeah, but it’s “up”-loaded!
You got it though, we use the client-side copy of the image to make the animation. It’s all an illusion, Michael.
