Big cursors
adjusting for drop down text
Thursday, October 22, 2009 by HoustonRon | Discussion: Skinning
I love the big, animated cursors but I have a specific problem with most of them and with some of the medium sized cursors as well. When the cursor is moved to hover over something clickable and that clickable has a drop down descripyion or menu, the cursor obscures the text (think about the Google toolbar where most addon options are displayed as a blue orb.. all alike and one must hover the mouse to get the description to display). It would be terrific if the cursors would do one of the following when hovering over a clickable: flip to a position above the clickable; reduce to a very small orb on the clickable or reduce to a small horizontal animation over the clickable. The new Rainbow cursor does the last 2 options, for example.

Try this one. It is large, very animated, and actually stays out of the way as well. http://chaosmoth.wincustomize.com/skins.aspx?skinid=2477&libid=25
