Today I am showing you how to change your mac cursor from the old boring regular cursor to something that you might like. I haven't seen any tuts on animated. Mac OS X Cursors for Windows 2000/XP-Here is a set of alphablended cursors for Windows 2000 and XP. The shadow is already included as transparency bits. Some of you might have alphablending problems, if you do, please look at the tip below it might work for you. It does not for me.

Not bad, I could only get the sample cape to work. I am looking for a big cursor for some games where the default one is near invisible.
I will keep my eye on it.
System Preferences -> Accessibility -> Display -> Cursor Size Slider...
Very cool. As far as I know the only app that lets you actually change the OS cursor since Apple switched to programmatically generated cursors.
Also I was very surprised to see that it lets you import old Mighty Mouse cursor files (Unsanity's long-dead cursor customization app.) I happened to have a couple around and they work, although they're bitmap-based and don't scale smoothly like the sample cursor…
It works awesome, even the Create new is very cool, a but to figure out the Sizing, but it works, unfortunately it quite impossible to find old Mighty Mouse Cursors, does anemone know a Page where 9 can find some?
thx
Perhaps I'm missing something but I couldn't find the app. Github has the Xcode project which I can't build since I don't have a paid Mac Developer Program. Where can I get the built app?

Tried submitting a hint, but the submit hint link yields:

Sorry to hijack this thread, but I can't submit a hint, and crarko's email address isn't working?
Anyone else having issues?
Still broken...
I'm having trouble with the site as well. Those trying to reach me; the best bet may be to use the forums and send me a PM there.
I'll try to find out what's going on. I'd like to get the ball rolling on the Yosemite Public Beta.
Thanks,
