This theme has a lot modifications of DMZ theme.The modification idea is to put a background to each DMZ cursors. It's a pack of seven mouse themes, just changing the background color. You never will lose it sight. I changed the left_ptr_watch and watch cursor, and I added animations for them, you will can see, one of them, in the screenshot number two. Cursor is looking well in both dark and clear backgrounds. If you find any errors, please let me know in the comments section.
They were built with Inkscape and it has new pointers and animations. They are an attractive pointers of 48 pixels, for people who like this marvelous cursor theme. It's almost flat, because only has shadow's blur and hasn't any degradated image. I've added some symlinks to Steam, and everything needed for KDE, GNOME and Unity, so now this one works great in these four Desktop Environments. I would change some things so you can expect updates. If you find any errors, please let me know in the comments section.
