Source (link to git-repo or to original if based on someone elses unmodified work):
Description:
RareAeroW7 is a X11 mouse theme with transparent yellow background and it is a Aero modification of Windows Seven. This background was applied at all theme's pointers. Was build for a member's petition this website, called Loquendero. He only gave me the main cursor, all others are for your consideration. Please tell me what you think this mouse theme. Thanks.
This theme has cursors placed in the 4th quadrant of the yellow background. Is Rare? of course it is. It's a matter of taste. At first it will be difficult, but after some time, you'll get used. Download it and you do the proof. It's wonderfull.
This X11 mouse theme has 64 pixels, and is flat: no degraded, no blurs and no shadows. I have tested it in Cinnamon with Muffin, KDE with Kwin, Xfce, Gnome 2.x, Gnome 3.x, Unity and it works great.
This theme You never will lose it sight. Cursor is looking well in both dark and clear backgrounds. If you find any errors, please let me know in the comments section.
