The (ever so slight) joy of dynamic icons

I was updating the copy of World of Warcraft on M's Mac and noticed that the icon for the downloader actually displays the current download progress by sweeping a wash off of the image (just as the spells do to indicate cool down). Neat little touch.

Too subtle with spells with the cool down on inner focus can mean the difference between a 40 man wipe or not. CtMod and Flexbar have nice adjustable clock countdowns :)

Aw, you've got to remember, I'm a Care Bear. ;)

Still, this was with the installer, not in the game proper. It was a nice touch so that I didn't have to keep checking on the state of the 325MB 1.90 download.
