i stumbled upon a few Cursors for windows yesterday and i was wondering if there was any way to change the one that windows uses. is there any way?

Yeah, it's real simple. All you have to do is go to Start > Control Panel > Mouse, and click the Pointers tab. There is a list under Customize: where you can select a pointer, and then choose to Browse... to the one you want to use. You can also download animated cursors (the extension is .ani), which are kind of cool.

Windows comes with tons of cursors too, unless you manually chose to have them removed. They are located at C:\ WINDOWS\ Cursors.

Do you have a link to the Luna Element cursors? I'd like to have a look at them; my vanilla white arrow is getting kind of boring. :)

If you guys want to change your cursors to something really dynamic have a look at cursorXP from Stardock.

Although Blue Glass Cursors isn't a complete set of cursors it is however a nice complement to Microsoft's Royale theme.
