Very nice! I'd been playing with something along these lines but it's really buggy (and I'm lazy). Kudos for the 'classname' option. I much prefer to specify a 'loading' image with CSS than to pass the filename to a JS object. And it doesn't require dimensions (mine does). I'll quietly retire my little experiment now.
