Animated Mouse Cursors

Animated mouse cursors are an improvement over the standard static cursor – call it the cursor 2.0 of cursors :P Animated cursors normally have a file prefix of .ani

Some cool examples of animated creativity with the mouse cursor is

  • bomba bomb where when you click the bomb explodes
  • lightsabera lightsaber where when you click, the lightsaber glows or extends out
  • fairya fairy where when you click, spreads a bit of fairy dust.

You get the picture, there’s so much you can do once you add a few frames to the cursor and pump in some animation!

MySpace Mouse Cursors

Have you seen those funky myspace pages where the mouse cursor changes to a cool glittering arrow, an awesome sword, a fireball, anything but the standard arrow cursor? Wondered out they can change the mouse cursor?

It’s super easy. All you need is to choose the mouse cursor you want. A cursor file normally ends with a file extension of .cur for static cursors or .ani for animated cursors. Don’t have any cursor files to use? Get them here for free. This package has 7500+ to choose from.

Next step is to upload them to the web. You can use a service like mediafire.com to store your files.

Lastly, just update your myspace page with the following code:

<style>HTML,BODY{cursor: url("yourmousepointer.ani"), url("thumbnail.gif"), auto;}</style>

Where I’ve put yourmousepointer.ani, put the full url to where you have your mouse pointer stored.

It’s that easy.
