Custom cursors

[xbury.cs at clearstream.com]

Anyone tried substituting a cursor for an imported image? 
Good thing there is a hotspot...

Just thought I'd give ya a cool suggestion!

Only known limitation is redraw refresh for nervous people like me and 
getting the cursor out of the stack... 

Whatever happened to the famous Amiga sprites?

cheers
