Hello,

I was wondering if people had thoughts on the best practices for a progress
bar for file upload. I'm having a discussion with a client and don't have a
strong position on this issue as yet. I think the most important question to
answer is "How much time is remaining?" (i.e. should I hang out and wait or
go get a coffee?)

After that, I am wondering which of the following should be displayed --
here's a list of options on the table and there could be more:

Visual info:
- Animation showing things being copied
- Progress bar showing visually how much is done

Text info:
- X min remaining
- X of Y KB
- X% complete
- X of Y min complete

- Other stuff I missed?

What do you think should be shown? 

Julie
