The pointers tab is where you can change your mouse cursor. To easily switch between mouse cursors, click the save as button under scheme and give your cursor scheme a name. Once you have that done, you can easily switch between the default scheme and your own custom scheme. Notice the selection box in the lower half of the screen. Here is a live demonstration of a custom cursor. Hover your mouse pointer over this link to reveal the custom cursor. Note: IE9 and earlier versions only support URL values of the type.cur for static cursor, and.ani for animated cursor. However, browsers such as Firefox, Chrome and Safari have support for.cur,.png,.gif and.jpg but not.ani. Moreover, there are cursors with animation effect. Each of them can be applied to almost any version, be it Windows 7, 8, 10, or even XP. The kits contain different formats:.cur and.ani. Both the first and the second can be installed on your computer, and their difference lies in the presence of animation or lack thereof. In this tutorial, you’ll learn how to create custom cursors that follow your mouse in Unity. This used mostly for 2D games, particularly arcade style games, RPG’s and top down shooting. Custom cursors are easy to implement in Unity, and we will need minimal coding as most of the structure is already set up for us.

If you do not want to install any software, just click on Control Panel in Start menu, then double-click the Mouse icon and switch to Pointer tab. Here you can change the cursors used by Windows in different situations to the downloaded ones.

Adding your cursors to the library

If you are an author of a cursor or cursor set, you may present your work to visitors of this web site. To add your cursors to the library:

• Get RealWorld Cursor Editor (it's free).
• Open a cursor file, and click the command 'Cursor'->'Add to Online Library' from application menu.
  • When uploading, please use the same email address associated with your account on this server.
  • Carefully choose file name and fill in the description. This helps people to find your cursor when using the search box.
• The cursors are by default added to the 'Junkyard'. If you have already added multiple cursors with similar theme and you would like to have them turned into a cursor set, register or login and return to this page.

Important: only cursor authors or copyright holders may add cursor to the library. If you are using pictures downloaded from internet to create cursors, you must make sure the author of the pictures allows this use of their work.

If you have found that someone has used your pictures and added them to the library without your permission, contact us immediately at info@rw-designer.com and they will be removed.

Important: always create 32x32 pixels cursors unless you have a serious reason not to. While it is possible to make cursors of non-standard size, Windows will automatically resample them decreasing image quality.
