# PreloadX - Custom Preloader

Customize the preloader to fit your site’s design by adjusting the background color, gradient, or even uploading a custom image.

- **Background color, gradient, or image options** for full customization
- **Fully responsive** and works across all devices

### How do I customize the preloader?
