Modded...and email sent.

Nice pointer...but does not "match" the Heavy Equipment suite.

Too dark and stripe-wise not chunky enough, so couldn't be accepted with the description re 'matching'.

To be included with HE it would need to be much closer in style...and include original description.txt, and then it could have the "Heavy Equipment" name within CursorXP ....

Side note...Fuzzy had a crash problem with one ver...as did I...though it later resolved itself...

That has most of the graphical content from which all the HE skins were made....there was a little bit more...but the underlying theme was 'heavy' aka chunky Tonka Truck style.

Styling cues were repeated faithfully throughout all the proggy skins.

People used the same hilights/shadows, palette, button states [they were rocker switches], all originated from Crumbut.....everyone then adapted them for their chosen applications....

I recently searched through around a hundred CDs of old 'stuff' in search of the original graphics images...but no luck....

i'm sry Jafo, i did read the email that you send me., but at this point of the game, i cant edit all the cursor itself.., if i wanted to edit the color or the light effect over the pointer the only option to me is to redo the hole thing., and realy..., i'm realy tired of doing cursor themes....., this was goin to be one of the last things i'll ever do becouse of the few amount of time i have for my self...., sry for the ones who were waiting for it

Had it three days, now. Really great animation and detail. Not to mention three different versions included in .zip! My fav is v.02
Tycus, if you slow down on the cursors, we'll all feel the lack, but wish you well with more personal time and other interests. TYCUS=precision, quality, attention to detail, innovation, artistic wisdom, knowledge and experience. P.S. Don't go away, please, just take more time to enjoy the "passing show"

seldomseen, i'm not goin anywere., what i was trying to say is that during the last 5 months i haven't be able to enjoy my few free time.., look, i work from 8 am up to 8 pm from monday until friday, and from 9am to 3pm on saturdays.., so i just have like one and a half day free for me...

..i did this theme during the week., from 10pm to 11:30pm, that's why it took me soooooo long to finish it.

TYCUS....it's perfectly fine to upload...here and anywhere else....provided the reference to 'Heavy Equipment Super Suit' [sic] is removed from the screenshot....
