By using these preloaders you can replace animated gif to make it more light in weight and more effective by visualization. Sure you will like to add these preloaders with you website, if you are getting any problem in ingration with your website I can help you there.

Pleaes feel free and contact to me anytime.

I have craeated these css preloaders with advance css properties like transition, transform and keyframes. These properties can make this more effective and animative.

These preloader become more usefull when your website is bulky and taking much time to load on browser you can simply use these preloaders to entertain you users with its visual effects which is its animation and smooth transition using keyframe enhancement rather than whole website optimization which can take more time and efforts.

In this tutorial we will add a CSS3 transitions to our already created CSS3 preloader.
