Took me a few plays of the video to figure out what was going on. I finally noticed it in the bottom right corner. That said, it is pretty and unique. Haven't seen a loader like that before.

Yeah, sorry about the quality of the video. I should've had an indicator for the loader.

Yeah, pretty easter egg. But basically, a waste of CPU cycles and pixel flips. As well as being visually distracting.

I don't know if it takes up that many CPU cycles. Agree that it is in a useless spot. Could've used that extra space for more text (post content).
