I am building a site with jquery. This site is all about numbers, statistics and progress so I created it mostly with progress bar to indicate the totals. At the moment I changed the progress bar into different colors, but am wondering if anyone knows a site where I can find nice images for the progress bar? I have searched google but can't seem to find any descent one.
Please help.
thanks.
You can generate a large variety of basic animated "waiting" icons on http://www.ajaxload.info
For more complex ones, try http://preloaders.net or http://www.loadinfo.net
Maybe try an open source Windoze installer such as NSIS http://nsis.sourceforge.net and it's associated plugins such as http://nsis.sourceforge.net/LoadingBar_UI ?

I'm new to web development and not sure how to explain this, I'm building a tool with lots of links and features to help making things at a call center easier but I wish everytime the page is opened it resizes to a small rectangular version. Is there a way this can be done? Thanks!!
I'm a complete newbie to Xcode and I'm trying to create my first app for my website: www.mathimation.co.uk
I'd like to create a menu of buttons similar to my website, which looks like the home screen of an iPhone/iPad. The buttons simply take you to another screen when clicked.
However I'm stuck! I've tried using buttons and labels within stacks, however I can't quite get the constraints/sizing correct. Everything moves or doesn't resize correctly on different devices. I've found tutorials that have worked for Image Views, but not Buttons which contain images. I've tried a Collection View, however I feel out of my depth with the coding and it then doesn't work.
If I were building a website, I would create a table, insert the images and text, then hyperlink to different pages. But this doesn't seem as simple!
Does anyone have any suggestions? Or know of any good tutorials to help?
Thank you so much!

I've been struggling with app dialog and toolbar appearances in the social boo theme for some time. I recently discovered that my struggles are less with my code and more with the theme. In the GUI Builder switching the Native Themes from IOS6, IOS7, and Android (Gingerbread I believe) all create very different dialogs ranging from matching to illegible to ok. Also I found this demo:
https://www.codenameone.com/demos-SocialBoo.html
and ran it on my Android (S6) phone. The below image illustrates the problems:
Social Boo visualizations
Note the Dialog's appearances as they change in the first 3 images. Please note in the 3rd Android picture I'm clicking on the Cancel button to show how differently it paints with the pointer pressed. The 4th image is again from my phone, note the toolbar button on the top right with a square image placed oddly over a rectangular button. Ah finally, all the problems I'm seeing in my app happening elsewhere!
Hopefully my title question now makes more sense. Is the social boo theme being updated with CodenameOne releases or is it dead? Should I abandon using it as it'll have quite varied appearances on devices especially iOS? I'd love to have the theme maintain the IOS6 appearance on all devices - how can I achieve that goal? Thank you in advance for your help!
It's a bit out of date. Most developers just cut a PSD design from scratch which works best when based on a native theme.
You can easily fix these things if you want to work with that theme though. When we implement a theme we don't aim to implement every feature that might be needed as those are hard to predict and will increase the theme size. The original theme didn't include design for dialogs so some behaviors leaked out.
You can use theme constants and UIID's like the theme constant dlgButtonCommandUIID to determine the UIID of the buttons within the dialog.
I have a web app I'm building in Dashcode, currently every thing is working as advertised. I'm using the browser template and was able to modify it a bit, got the xml working to connect images and their description. Now I want to add a simple OnClick event that sends the image to fullscreen but I can't find any documentation for that. I'm pretty sure this is easily done so I'm missing something here? Any help greatly appreciated.

Taking over the screen is a bit complicated (if your talking about a full screen experience like youtube), but full screen in the browser window is defiantly possible. The simplest method is to have the click event open a link to the image location. This would load the image in full resolution in the browser window. A more elegant approach would be to load the image url into the source of a image dashcode object. and have that objects visibility only appear overs the whole web app when the Oncick event occurs. If you are talking about a built in function in dashcode to achieve a full screen/browser image, your out of luck.
I have an application which will support several standard operations
play
stop
pause
undo
I'd like to have images for those buttons. I've been searching through vs2005 image library but the images there are non consistent. For example the play button (playhs.bmp) is green while stop (stophs.bmp) is blue.
Also I haven't found an undo image
what other common images bundles are there out there? Or is there something like an addon to vs2005 image library?
I'd like something free if possible

Lots of excellent free icons packs!
This site should help you out:

I recommend the free Silk icons set for small 16x16 icons.
