Suggestion for cursors

A magic wand

2007-02-02Author: Broojo02
In photoshop there is an option for selecting an area of a certain colour, then deleting it, caled the magic wand. A button like this would be very useful in the program because I spend soo long constantly selecting little boxes and then cutting them to make certain parts of my cursor transparent.

Selection support will be improved in future versions.

For the task you describe, I would recommend to use the flood-fill tool with transparent color (right button by default), possibly with non-zero tolerance.

Oh thanx mate thats wicked

Sorry about this, another suggestion, it would be good if we could make an animated cursor from .gif files. At the moment you can only do it with still files like jpeg which is still great but it would make it really easy to convert animated gifs to .ani cursors

;-) all suggestions are welcome. A gif importer was in the long term plan, so I'll give it higher priority.

Nice cursors BTW. You can eventually turn them into a cursor set to get more exposure and some feedback from other people through the comments section.

Ahh thanx mate, I like making video game ones so yeah I will probably make a Minish cap cursor set.

little question - how do I make a set?

2007-02-02Author: Vlasta
Using this link: http://www.rw-designer.com/cursor-editset.php

The instructions are also at the bottom of the main page of cursor library.

Thanx

I wish I could promote the site somehow, you know get thousands of users posting cursors throughout the day and this place becoming a bustling community, happy days

Well I wrote a review for it on download.com so hopefully that will make people download it (I gave it 5 stars).

2007-02-02Author: Vlasta
That's nice from you. More users and more cursors in the library would sure be fine :-).
