Description: A modified and extended jaguarx fork with grayscale animated watch. Looks lika a set of standard black *X cursors, but smoothed and shadowed.
NOTE for gentoo users: Please emerge any "xcursors" ebuild and apply the same installation instructions to this package.Last changelog:
1.01: new plain crossed circle and watch 1.02: new left_ptr_watch 1.03: new left_ptr_watch (once more) 1.04: crosshair and tcross hotspot fixed 1.05: better watch 1.1 : dnd cursors for GTK+-2.8 1.12: pencil, link and move added; KDE bug probably fixed. 1.12a: make.sh cleanups. 1.13: refinement 1.13a: {bd,fd}_double_arrow bug fixed (thanks to Desintegr)
I'm new to Ubuntu and I love Gnome. One of the issues I had was that cursor size was inconsistent between applications and the desktop. I researched the issue for days until I finally decided to try some alternative cursor themes and this one really helped!
Now my cursor size is consistent in all applications as well as in Nautilus and I couldn't be happier :-)
The theme looks great by the way, thank you so much for creating and working on it. Great job!
Some applications use their own cursors, not theme-based. What application gives you that "big hand thing"? Use this page to test cursors (the hand is CSS cursor:move). http://www.echoecho.com/csscursors.htm
i see the same problem.
it not an application but kde itself that displays the big hand (hovering over kicker application icons for example).
the test page doenst show this error. all cursors come up correct but firefox doesnt show this cursor problem anyway...
I tried to replay that bug, but didn't see an ugly hand. I've seen ugly arrows and fixed them. Please try the new version. Bug reports with detailed descriptions are appreciated.
problem still there with the new version. the hand and the pointer look like the ones in the test page: http://www.echoecho.com/csscursors.htm
no themes and that poiter/hand is everywere in kde. my problem is that i cannot find a place where the hand is shown correctly.
You probably installed using the KDE control center and were affected by this bug: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=116431 Simply re-install the cursor theme manually and it should work.
Great work!
Please consider adding the following cursor icons:
- dnd-none
- dnd-copy
- dnd-link
- dnd-move
- dnd-ask
These are supported since gtk 2.8.
Ciao

I think the theme would be better if the progress cursor had the same ring the waiting cursor. Like what Neutral++ has.
Finally a cursor theme that I like! Great Job!
It's stylish, elegant and simple.
this is what I like to see: take OSX themes and change them just enough to get away with it. I think i just found my new cursor theme. :)
Been using it for a year. Great Work!
Very good theme. It keeps balance balance between elegant look and eye candy. I like it. :)
The best mouse theme ever!
It's exectly what I was looking for!
very nice; only zooming in and zooming out cursors are missing(as far as i noticed).
very nice ;) need an ebuild? -> http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=130046

I love it, they should consider updating their default X11 cursors ;-)
The hand cursor has no shadow here. Cheerz
Please see my comment above.
in suse 9.3 the hand cursor icon is not displayed. it is replaced by the standard big hand thing...
