## Description

Some of the websites take some time to load completely. It doesn’t look cool while
the website elements are loading and even things seem to be broken sometimes until
website is fully loaded.
 This plugin can help you get rid of this. This plugin 
shows the user a loader animation while the page is being loaded. This plugin is
a need for almost every website.

You can also customize page loader. You can change:
 * Color of loader icon * Background
color * Loader animation (5 Loader icons are available. More will be added via update
soon.)
