problem with cursor xp animation
Saturday, October 5, 2002 by Styl-X Design | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
When i am animating my cursor in photoshop, by putting all the cursors after eachother and i load the image in cursor xp, i put the right number of frames in it, and look at the previeuw....
Then i see the last cursor (the last frame) moving 2 pixels to the left.
That isn't a error in the design or something, cause i have it always... please somebody help me so i can create some animated cursors.

It seems to me, that, if you have e.g. 5 images of width 15 and height 25, you just can allocate a new blank image of 75 x 25. Then you can put the images into that new image and save it as PNG. Easier would be to save the images as bmp1, bmp2, bmp3 etc and use the aniutil.

yep 
you get a screen: process images, you browse to the directory you have saved your files, you choose the files, and then you are asked to save the new file to a directory. Easy! Good luck

you can script the way you want to have the animations in cursorXP. I believe it is explained how to do it on the cursorXP page of stardock.
