Description
Edit 7Hasn't been much heat on this recently. Maybe mah new watchers will be interested.
Good god! Edit 6.
Gee, I really thought I'd never be able to submit it again. Oh well! I got it!
As we trek along, I'd like to remind everybody commenting here that both =TheBigBadFish and *Gordorca are happy to make cursors for any subscriber out there!
Edit 5!
We've reached 50 sets of cursors, let's not stop here! Tell all your subscribed friends about this trend, I'm sure they'd like a cursor as well!
Edit 4, holy crap.
=TheBigBadFish has been so helpful in this project, and now it's time to bring in yet another potentially wonderful employee. *Gordorca , who made numbers 43 and 49, has offered his amazing services for the benefit of whoever would like a cursor from him! We now have two options in (don't forget, FREE!) cursor requests, not including me cause I'm busy as hell already!
Thank you, Gordon!
Edit 3:
Whoops! Thanks dearly to `electricnet , who caught my mistake in the CSS. New CSS here:
a:link {
cursor:url(URL), pointer;
}
a:hover {
cursor:url(URL), pointer;
}
body {
cursor:url(URL), auto;
}
Edit 2:
This is getting giganormous!!! Keep sending in all those cursors!
A GIGANTIC hug and thank you to =TheBigBadFish , who's made just under half
Edit:
A HUGE thank-you to =TheBigBadFish , who's made so many cursors.
To have your cursor in this soon-to-be massive project, simply note me with the two links to each: one as a normal cursor, and one when it is hovering over a link! (as seen above)

Always waiting for files, guys! If you have a cursor, send me your links!

This is a project I wanted to start: Custom Cursors for your CSS! After seeing one in ~BenXT 's journal, I talked to *Jamaal10 about it, and he showed me the ropes. Now, I'm trying to get this idea to spread dA-wide!
You can check out my journal and the News Article for more information, and =DEVlANT , `CookiemagiK , =e-CJ , =SparklyDest , and many more deviants have advertised this for me as well!
The CSS is here, where you replace the URL being the downloadable link, such as an fc06.deviantart.com link:
a:link {
cursor:url(URL), pointer;
}
a:hover {
cursor:url(URL), pointer;
}
body {
cursor:url(URL), pointer;
}
While I'm at it, I'd like to shout a huge thank-you to *Tyshea , who first advertised this for me and popularized the idea!
If you would like a cursor, but don't have the program/knowledge to make them, just let me know what you'd like, and I'd be happy to make something for you!
So let's make this the best trend ever started on dA! We'll match up against the Pixel IDs started by `Endling and his friends, and give all subscribers a chance to add even more "unique" to their journals!

Cool project, but there's something not right with the CSS. As you say, the body is for the normal state and the others are for hover state. However, you default both types of cursors to pointer, which is the normal hover cursor. That means that if the custom cursor images do not load, then the entire journal body will have the default hover-state cursor, making it look like the body is clickable! You should replace the pointer in the body {} definition with auto, which lets the browser decide for itself if the cursor does not load, as it normally does.

So I should change "pointer" to "auto"?

electricnet In reply to dbestarchitect [2008-06-23 13:59:29 +0000 UTC]
In the body definition (the one that should have an ordinary cursor and not a hover cursor), yes.

Lol, as said, the new CSS is right, but I just found out that you still display the old CSS lower in the description.

Hi! I think this is a great idea. I made a cursor for my journal, but I can not figure out the CSS. (The cursor is here: [link]
Could you help me with the css, pretty please?
