More low-vis arrows!
I sure hope you have
a dark desktop background!
Yayyyy! Dx

The messy letter shadows?
Just following the graphic artist's patterns lol

Ok, so...
'tis release serie 1,
containing :
-The in-game cursors seen on Civ for MsDOS,
the three torch variants, the txt input,
the GO command arrow;
-Four unavailables, one is a GO turned into
an arrow-less NO, the others are unlit torches. Witty, ay? ;
-Diagonal resizers & movers based off the GO cmd arrow,
text & text-less variants;
-Custom vertical&horizontal resizers, attempted
over the GO arrow. Results are... a tad crusty...;
-Dancing-flame custom WiB torches;
-The dancing flames alone, here proposed as WAIT cursors;
-Duo of custom link selectors based off the GO arrow.

Possibly in the next updates :
-Vertical text select?;
-GO-based help select?;
-Counter-like WiBs & waits?.

Horiz needs a fix
...done!

...mmm... yeah,
the graphics team
had envisioned the torch & GO
for a green&blue background,
not desktop use...
(much like the pointer in
BlueByte's The Settlers)

hopefully checking that "shadow" box
will help a little...

I don't know whether MsDos
supported animated cursors...
but I had to come up with
sometging for WiB & busy.

I can't always rely on
Alto's ellipsis or
Amiga Workbench 1.x's Zs...
...or can I...?

Nice set, I would add a hand related to the cursor theme to give it a Dungeons and Dragons feel!

....hm...
I suppose I could try searching or ripping
the coinselors' hands... maybe...
