Polar Cursor Theme
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
Polar Cursor Theme is a smooth and simple cursor set created primarily in Inkscape.
****Installation****
There are three cursor sets included in this package. The default with the orange busy cursors is called PolarCursorTheme and the blue and green variants have -Blue and -Green added to the end of their theme name. To make sure that all themes are installed (or only the one you want) extract to /.icons/ in your home folder.
****Note****
KDE users please note that installing the cursors through the control center can cause some cursors to use the default X cursors. To fix this simply extract the theme directly to /.icons/ in your home folder.
Finally a special thanks to all the authors of various cursor themes here on gnome-look.org for ideas.
Enjoy!

How do you install a mouse theme in gnome at all? ;-)
Thanks a lot!

I mean, instead of rendering a cursor respecting the theme I see a horrible black arrow with a tiny watch aside.
I guess this cursor belongs to the minimal default theme of the system (KDE3.3 on Slackware10.1).
Would you mind tell me how override that with YOUR "loading cursor"?

From reading the comments in other themes here it seems there might have been a problem with earlier versions of KDE not preserving the symlinks when installing a theme (which would explain at least the resizers not showing up). If you have an older version of KDE then I would suggest installing it normally then extract the theme and copy the cursors folder over top of the one in /home/your user name/.icons/PolarCursorTheme/
If anyone can give me the info on what the symlinks are for cursors in programs like Nautilus and Konqueror (perhaps they've changed recently?), so that the proper cursors show up, I would be greatly appreciative. Or for that matter anyway of finding them out too.
