Hello! I’m going to teach you how to get whatever cursor you want.

First, figure out what you want as a cursor. I’m going to be changing mine to a Skyrim mouse.

So first you get a picture of whatever you want, as clean as possible:

Image ID: A screenshot of Skyrim, with a text box on it that reads "The save game is corrupt and cannot be loaded." Importantly, the mouse cursor is fully visible. End IDALT

Open your favorite art program and clean it up, then save as a png:

Image ID: The cursor from Skyrim, with a transparent background. End IDALT

Then go here and convert it to a .cur file. Make sure there’s no gap between the corner of the arrow and the corner of the png.

Next you go to Control Panel:

Image ID: A screenshot of the Windows search screen, where a blue icon labeled "Control Panel" is highlighted. End IDALT

Select Mouse from the list:

Image ID: A Control Panel window with rows of icons in alphabetical order. The one for "Mouse" is highlighted. End IDALT

Then go to the Pointers tab and pick whichever mouse cursor you want to replace.

Image ID: The Mouse Properties window, on the second tab labeled "Pointers," the cursor for "Normal Select" highlighted. End IDALT

Click “Browse…” and find the .cur file you made earlier:

Image ID: The Mouse Properties window, on the second tab labeled "Pointers," the cursor for "Normal Select" highlighted. It now displays the Skyrim cursor. End IDALT

And voila! I now have a Skyrim cursor.

You may have to tinker with the size a bit to get the point to be accurate. If that happens, just resize your png and convert to .cur again.

Happy customization!

Are you still active?

If so, what if I want the cursor target to not be the corner

You need to download a program that makes .cur files, rather than just use a converter. This one is a good, safe one.

When you open the program, you’ll have the option to upload a picture to convert to a .cur file, then it’ll take you to an editing page, like so:

Image ID: A cursor editor, with several drawing options, like a pixel art program. Depicted as a cursor is a Beast Ball from Pokémon. End IDALT

To change the target, you go to the preview window and drag the icon to where you want the click point to be.

Image ID: A preview window of a cursor, with a Beast Ball from Pokémon in it, aligned to crosshairs. End IDALT

Then you can test how it handles in the test area below that.

File -> Save as -> [nameithere].cur

And there you go!

i think ‘I trust you with my life but not your own’ as a trope is one of the ones that can always fuck me up no matter what

“I trust you with my life because you are good and kind and noble–I know you will not hesitate to do everything in your power to save me.

I do not trust you with your own life because you are good and kind and noble–I know you would not hesitate to sacrifice yourself to save me.”

THAT is where it’s at!!!!!
