I draw my own pointers.

I drew one that I used for about 3 years,
and then I drew the one I still use.
Its half a year old now.

I wish I could show them,
But I am planning to upload them to aminet.

To help immortalize Sleepy... I changed my avatar from my "phoenyx" to the "Sleepy" busy pointer I use.

I use the same pointer-look on both AmigaOS and Windows. It's a windows-style pointer but it's red with a white border instead of white with a black border. For the busypointer I have the same pointer but with a "Z" below it.

Babylon 5, oriented so that the cargo "mandibles" aim up and left, thus serving as the point of the pointer, with a "5" just above the station, shifting rapidly from red to blue.  I don't use much else currently from the B5 II Entertainment Utility, but the mouse pointer has persisted.  It does a neat little transition effect between a government-type seal and a big "5" for the busy image.  One o' these dang days, I should get a skinner like WindowBlinds and do a proper B5 theme.  Or even two, one "fannish" and one as if you're linked into B5 by either StellarCom or the BABCOM system itself!

I have a version of WB with a jet fighter icon for a pointer, I used to edit it quite a lot.

Right now on my Mac I have a black arrow which changes to a cursor placing icon when it needs to.

I like (semy) transparent pointer... :)

(What can be achieved by a pattern inside the pointer...)

But I would really love to see really transparent pointer... :)

I'm amazed this thread is so popular  :shocked:

I've finally managed to get a grab of my busy pointer:

Any chance we can see PointerMI Martin?  :-)

I was given a Amiga 2000, and it had Workbench 1.3 and I did not like the ugly pointer.

I, in turn gave away the Amiga 2000 as well, it would have cost too much to upgrade.

I have the standard Win XP pointer, points to the left, and has a drop shadow.

Does yours point to the left?

WHOA  :-o   Don't answer that, I don't really want to know.... ;-)

Please note: This is not the standard pointer of OS4, just a contribution.

Just the standard OS3.5 one:



Of course, in AWeb-II it changes to a hand over a hyperlink!

Macs & Windows use white (or black) because of their monochrome heritage!

So, who'll be the FIRST to minimize their avatar and use THAT
as their POINTER?

(BTW- Anyone found a Windows keyboard with a LIT-active CAPS
LOCK key?)

My A1200 pointer looks like the default WB3.0 one, only in blue instead of red  :-)
