I don't know how to word this - "Progress bar" maybe???

Hi Everyone!
I've been a lurker here on occasion, but never posted. I'm sure this has been covered somewhere, but what I'm trying to do is place a "loading" page or progress bar that loads my pages before they're shown to the visitor...maybe an hourglass or a bar of some sort, y'know? I think it looks unprofessional to visit a site and watch each item as it loads. Know what I'm sayin'????

Hi -- Welcome to the discussions. They're called animated Flash "preloaders" which show a progress bar, e.g.

...but I'm not sure how practical it would be to use them for general web-page loading; perhaps another forum reader could chip in here.
If you decide to experiment, you could try integrating preloaders into your site via either of the following:
