Jazzer2, I think you used the original window cursors for this.
I already contacted an admin who will take a closer look at it.
Not that its not a nice idea to have them in cursor xp, just because the cursors are copyrighted. And believe me, you dont wan't to mess with micro$oft

geeez, I thought i commented on this cursor set.. for some reason, my comment isnt in here anymore.
well, anywayz... I do understand Styl Skinner's point.. as well as that Im glad to see Jazzer2 making these cursors for Cursor XP.
If i were Jazzer2, I'd write a nice little letter to Microsoft's legal department, and request permission to use thier old Window's cursors for Cursor XP.
Hopefully, Jazzer2 wont end up getting some Anal Microsoft Egghead to respond back to him-- and that someone over in the Golden Gates of Microsoft will grant him permission.
As much as I hate to admit this--and I am absolutely grateful for Jazzer2 providing these nifty cursors-- Microsoft has a reputation for arrogance and Totalitarianism., so it wouldnt surprise me if they got bent out of shape over someone using thier old Window's cursors.
It wouldnt bother someone like me, but there are alot of uptight folk out there in these companies-- especially Microsoft.. ( I know someone who used to work for Microsoft- but quit for the reasons i'm stating)
Heck, if Jazzer 2 does request permission to use Window's old cursors-- maybe he may get lucky-and get in touch with someone nice up there. Maybe we'll be seeing Jazzer's cursors in some new release of "Microsoft Plus!" for Longhorn down the road!
