We’ve all seen the basic file upload form for uploading avatars, images, memes, etc. The problem with these is that once you upload your image it’s hidden from you.

The solution is to use a little bit of JavaScript to upload the image as soon as it’s selected and display a thumbnail so we can easily review the form before we submit it. Head on over to the ZURB – Image Uploads with 100% Less Suck to see a complete demo and breakdown of the JavaScript they use to accomplish this.
