DKUserMessageView *messageView = [[DKUserMessageView alloc] init];
messageView.frame = imageView.frame;
[self.view addSubview:messageView];
        
// set `spinner` to YES to show a loading spinner (`UIActivityIndicatorView`)
[messageView dk_loading:YES spinner:YES];
dispatch_async(dispatch_get_global_queue(DISPATCH_QUEUE_PRIORITY_DEFAULT, 0), ^{
  NSURL *url = [NSURL URLWithString:@"http://placekitten.com/100/80"];
  UIImage *image = [UIImage imageWithData:[NSData dataWithContentsOfURL:url options:NSDataReadingMappedIfSafe error:nil]];
  dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^{
    if (image.size.width>0) {
      [messageView dk_loading:NO];
