To create your own custom cursor (or use one that I've made), you must first create a pixel file no bigger than 32x32 and save it as a .cur (cursor file) or .ani (animated cursor file).

You can download a plugin for photoshop or PSP that saves the file in .cur and .ani. (I recommend downloading a really great cursor program called RealWorld Cursor Editor instead).

Once you've created your cursor, copy the code below into the head section of your page. Note: Animated curors only work in IE 6+.

The cursor should work in Firefox, Safari, and IE 6+.
