Using the Compact Light theme:

On Windows we show a blue loading indicator against a blue selected tab background.

We should use a different color loading indicator here, because the blue-on-blue doesn't provide enough contrast.

Tested on Windows 10 Firefox Nightly 54.0a1 (2017-02-10) (64-bit).
[Tracking Requested - why for this release]:
We'll be shipping this with 53, and we shouldn't ship this with the barely-visible spinners.


Stephen, do you have a replacement asset we could use here?

Tracking this since we're shipping the feature with 53 and want the loading indicator to be clearly visible.

Here is a white version of the loading indicator.

These seems like an improvement to me for both Compact Light and Dark, so I'll try it for both.

r=me . Given Stephen supplied the image I assume that implies ui-r+ :-)

Drive-by question, did you check that it was png-crushed?

I compressed it. You have to compress the individual frames before you create the APNG.
