Brad,

I personally like the approach of doing all the CSS stuff via a true
stylesheet.  That's a personal preference, but I think it makes more
sense to most developers who might be new to the code.  They can
easily see how to style/change the CSS for the message if it's in a
CSS file rather than coded in javascript somewhere.

#1:   http://malsup.com/jquery/block/#options

the overlayCSS-s opcaity is what you need to adjust

#2:   you'd set the css properties of top and left to point you
up closer to the top right corner



and just a side note, thinking as an end user, i would think more
people would be what was that by *not* seeing the overlay, than
seeing no change in the page (save your top right Saving..,
Uploading.., etc) and not being able to click/whatever things on the
page

perhaps setting a slight delay on the unblock call so they see it
for at least a second or so?

Thanks for the feedback. I'm getting closer

How do I set a delay on the unblock? Is that the fadeOut setting?
