Problem is, animated GIFs only have a 1-bit alpha channel for transparency, so
each GIF can only be anti-aliased to a single color. PNGs have 8-bit alpha
channels and thus no uglyness, but you can't easily animate PNGs. There are 2
different solutions available:

1. Create several different animated GIF spinners - each anti-aliased to a
different color.

2. Create a non-animated PNG spinner, and spin it with some fancy
javascript/css. Unfortunately this doesn't work in Opera and some older
browsers.
