Is there a way to make my own cursor or is there one of my downloads that may have one? I'm wanting to make or use one that is a pair of hairstylist's shears/scissors.

Did you download the cursor editor to make the cursor form your images?

I'm sorry to be so dense about this. I don't know what to do with the .zip file though.

Right click on it and select Extract.:) Make sure you keep an eye on where it gets extracted to so you can add it to your site.;)

I put this in the header:

<style type="text/css"><!--
body {cursor:url("cursor/shears.cur"), pointer}
--></style>

and this in the body html:

<p align="center" style="cursor: crosshair">Text</p>

In the preview mode it show the cursor as a hand like that shows up over a hotspot.
