Alpha Cursors
Source (link to git-repo or to original if based on someone elses unmodified work): Add the source-code for this project on opencode.net
I always wanted a set of true alpha-blended cursors for linux, but there were none available.
This is a set created by xsx@gamearena.it. Converted to linux X11 format by Garak.
These are true translucent (see-thru) cursors, they look great.
nVidia users may want to enable HWCursor and Render_Accel in nvidia's xorg.conf section for best performance/no flickering.
Just unzip & run ./build.sh to install.

Rebuilt cursors so all hotspots should be fixed.

I really like this. I can honestly say I never though about having the different pointer states be represented merely by color.
I'm not certain I like the cursor used over text. This is on a decent quality LCD (notebook) and it can be a bit hard to notice the cursor when it's over text.
Anyway, at this time, I can't image using a theme that did more that change just the color.

The resize ones seem a bit odd in linux, yea.. But i think the hotspots are right, they just have a small zone.
