I almost wet my pants! This is great, default shadow values might need a little tweaking though

Where can I download the old CXP theme Bubblegum?

Ok folks need some help here. I have CursorXP Plus, just what do I do, wait for an email or download the free/trial version or what? I used the link and am sorry to say I got confused.

Really nice.

I ran into a couple of problems (all reported to support):
- No cursor on secure desktop (UAC prompts)
- CTRL-SHIFT-C kills CursorFX.exe but does not restore the default Windows cursor
- Control panel transitions show parts of the cursor preview.

Is the final release going to bring Vista x64 support?

Anyone having issues ordering using their previous XP serial? It keeps giving me an error.. (

I do not care about this.
- CTRL-SHIFT-C kills CursorFX.exe but does not restore the default Windows cursor
Cursor XP has the same issue.

I am using SnagIt, and find that Cursor XP is not compatible with it. When I try to capture a screenshot, I cannot get rid of the cursor anyway. Please fix this in CursorFX, or else I have to uninstall this lovely software.

the upgrade isn't taking my serial number either.

On Vista maybe, but IIRC on XP, CTRL-SHIFT-C would disable CursorXP temporarily and bring it back when pressed again.

As for SnagIt not capturing CursorXP mouse pointers, it's probably an application "issue". It's probably not capturing whatever kind of window CursorXP is using to draw the cursor. OneNote for example captures cursors just fine, so it's possible to do it. You might want to ask SnagIt support to look into it.

Emails with serial numbers and download links for customers who purchased CursorXP in the last 2 months will go out later this week. They have not gone out yet and won't tonight.

So basically we are receiving a new serial even if we purchased XP when it was first released?
on Dec 18, 2007
What about those who purchased CursorXP long before 2 months ago?

And will this ever show up in the Misc section of Stardock Central?

Sounds interesting, and I might play with the free version, but since I've bought the full version of CursorXP, it would be nice to know what the upgrade path might be. Do past purchasers have to repurchase this app?
