ProgressIndicator (like other user interface elements in version 6) is designed to have the appearance and behavior of the equivalent operating system user interface element. If you feel neither the appearance (e.g. color, size) nor the behavior (e.g. direction of animation) is suitable for your purposes then there is no point in using the built in ProgressIndicator. If you really wanted something different you can use Graphics[] to create your own UI elements. I would recommend sticking with ProgressIndicator. That way it will still look correct if, for example, someone uses your code on a different operating system. -Rob
