My pointer changed to a little Bee engine icon
And I think it is cool!
I wonder if there is a way to make it stick as my pointer on all my windows apps and forums
Anyone know where I can find the dot cur or dot ani file? Jacob?

Re: My pointer changed to a little Bee engine icon
You like that? I was playing around in the forum CSS this morning and added it for fun. I was going to leave if for awhile and wait for someone to complain about it. Wondering if it would get annoying after awhile.
It's just a png, I couldn't get any of my image editing software to make it a cur file. It will display in Firefox and Safari but I couldn't get it to in Opera.

Re: My pointer changed to a little Bee engine icon
I am on windows 7 and Google web browser and I really like the cox baby bee pointer Jacob, thanks!
I am sort of amazed no one else commented as it was the first thing I saw when I logged on this morning.
In My control panel I can change my mouse "pointers" based on a set of dot cur or dot ani files pre loaded in a cursor file
I assume the dot cur are simple large or small icons for arrows, fingers, exclamation points, etc and the dot ani are the files for the ones that are animated. There are literally hundreds of files and they are usually tied to a theme
any how I like the pointer so please keep it unless a lot of hate mail comes you way (which I doubt)

Re: My pointer changed to a little Bee engine icon
I first noticed it last night & it was displaying a Halloween pumkin. I thought something was wrong or corrupted because it was well after Halloween. Actually, the evil looking pumkin freaked me out a little, but that's now been replacede by the Babe Bee icon.

Re: My pointer changed to a little Bee engine icon
Cool, it's okay with me, I don't think it's functionally deficient in any way.
How many of you have a scratch pad with tear-off sheets printed with a Cox Engine Forum babe Bee?
I got one

Re: My pointer changed to a little Bee engine icon
I used the pumpkin as it was a .cur file. I was seeing if the engine not being a .cur file was the reason it wasn't displaying in the Opera web browser.
I like it but, ...

Admin: I like the Bee icon, but could you make the little arrow bigger so I can see it? It is tiny.

Hows this? I might make the engine a little bit smaller. It blocks the caption when hovered over emoticons plus you want to click with the upper left corner (with the arrow) other than with the engine itself.
looks much better

My new 2 in 1 laptop-tablet went into tablet mode, but the sample mode you showed looks better. Thanks as usual.

Re: My pointer changed to a little Bee engine icon
It looks like I have to use a .cur file for it to work with Internet Explorer. I'll see what I can do.
Re: My pointer changed to a little Bee engine icon
Or you could change your brower to google chrome it is very good and its free!
