I made some Cool Bat cursors and more years ago, guess Ill have to dig em out and post em later.

That would be some cool stuff to see.

Thanks - TeyTey will love this! :)

Have fun, be creative. :)

A tribute to meanwhile a classic...
Proudly presenting the Aero Default pointer from Windows 7.



Entirely based on the original Windows 7 pointer.
Now remastered for the new systems, adding the 64x64px layer.
This makes the cursor sharp at 200% DPI, something the Win8/10 cursors are capable.





Animations could't be resized upwards so re-rendering was necessary.

What's included:







Differences with stock Windows 7 cursor:
-added 64x64px detail layer.
-fixed a glitch in working (L) pointer animation: hotspot reposition on one frame.
-added text and cross pointers instead of relying on black system ones.

Available in Normal - Large - Extra Large
Cursor themes here:

Cheers!

This will be perfect for those steadfast "I want 10 to look and feel like 7" Windows Geeks

There's another good reason I made it:
My Red one is based on it and I'm planning an update. No 64x64px means no go...

For the red release, the animated orb with the orange-gold it produces couldn't be replaced with the cartoony one from 8/10.

See what I mean:

DWNLAD NW!

LOL that looks cool!

Staring at these, gave me a cool idea for an avatar.
a glass eye in the center and 3 concentric rings spinning
. 1 red, 1 green, 1 blue,
1st ring spins clock wise, 2nd counter clock, 3rd clockwise again

Interesting!
Concentric beginning with red?
