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!

I think the theme would be better if the progress cursor had the same ring the waiting cursor. Like what Neutral++ has.

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. :)

I love it, they should consider updating their default X11 cursors ;-)

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.

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.

Simply Cool. Next best to Jaguar, as it does resembles it quite a lot.
