MikeB314's VOX cursor ripped !!
Tuesday, April 1, 2003 by Styl-X Design | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
As the today's articel told me something about a linux site, I desided to take a look there. It had some cursor themes, and I was looking trough them, (Had a strange feeling about it 
)
I'm verry sure about this:

Ripped: http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php?content=5078

Styl...on a Win 9x box it cannot be simpler.
On a NT-based system....NT, 2000, XP....there is a 'little' more effort needed...but NEVER will you genuinely ever need to re-install Windows...

Configuration is via 'rc' files....straight text-based coding....not really that difficult to pick up.
If you wish to try LiteSTEP then I'd suggest starting with a Win 9x box....can be more user-friendly if you don't actually 'need' to rely on an installer.
LiteSTEP 'can' be as brain-dead simple to set up as you could ever imagine.....or, unfortunately, give you every shade of grief and frustration....

(sorry, when I run a skin on my desktop witch I didn't 'create' personally I just have to build one myself...)

so this has turned into a LS thread? sometimes even a topic like rips ends up in something productive.
the slowdowns you might have noticed with other desktop replacements is because those run on top of the Windows default shell (explorer.exe), so if you are running more programs you can´t expect them to use less resources.
with shell replacements as LS that´s different. you run LS instead of the regular Windows, so LiteStep will not slow down your system, but make it faster. also on Win98 it will make it more stable.
how many resources LS uses depends on the theme you use. many people say that the resource use depends on the number of modules you run. sounds logical, but i have pretty much experience in LS and in my experience the amount of images and the amount of transparency in these images are far more important than the number of modules.

I see... So a good LS theme has a good look, but not too much transparency...

just try what you like. i´d guess 99% percent of the themes here are faster than explorer.

a good start is Mojomonkee´s tutorial: http://students.seattleu.edu/connolb/tutorials/litestep_tutorial/litestep_part_1.html
it has all the links you need to begin.
i said it several times at other threads that the links on the LiteStep section here needs to be updated. just one line in a text file, but nobody seems to care ...
www.litestep.net is the place to go.
