I havve been looking around for something that shows the progress of an upload using Paperclip. I can't find any solutions is there any out there? If not is there any particular progress uploader that can be recommended?

SWFUpload is the thing you should be searching for.

are there any tutorials on how to implement it with paperclip?
Josh Crowder
Sure just google `paperclip swfupload`
Jakub Hampl
I did, I have tried this one http://jimneath.org/2008/05/15/swfupload-paperclip-and-ruby-on-rails/ but its very out of date and I can't get it to work.

Well I think I used that one as well and had it work. Maybe if you post concrete code and errors we can get somewhere - but I really can't help you like this. It is doable as I do currently have an app that does just exactly that (and more, like multiple file upload) so if you post concrete problems I can help you.

Ah and yes, it's not typically the simplest thing to do - especially if you need users to be logged in.

I think I have found an answer. http://github.com/pkordel/uploadify_paperclip_demo

This seems to be a working and easy to implement.
