Free Cursors: Another Way to Dress Your Desktop

Don't you just love those Windows default mouse pointers--the generic white arrow, the nondescript I-beam that's so hard to see? Oh, you could jazz things up with one of the operating system's alternate schemes, like maybe Dinosaur, which offers green and yellow dinos for "busy" and "working."

But why settle for what Windows has to offer when you can download free cursor sets that go way beyond the ordinary?

If you work in a professional environment and want to add some understated zing to your desktop, 3D Flat, XP Cursors, and XZ-B-One Cursors 1 offer stylish alternatives. These animated cursors and pointers are easy to see on crowded desktops and in text-thick documents, and they just might make you more productive.

If your work environment is more relaxed, consider personalizing your desktop with your favorite hobby. Fans of feathered fauna will appreciate the aviary at Birds, while music aficionados will get a kick out of 3D Musical, a collection of animated instruments. Like to work on your car? Give Weekend Passion a chance to spin your wheels. Enjoy old movies? Wizard of Oz will put a smile on your face.

At Mechatech Cursors science fiction buffs will find an array of futuristic gadgets that blink and whirl. The Space cursor set contains a rocket, a robot, and more. And no sci-fi collection would be complete without a cursor set dedicated to The Matrix.
