Available looks weird flashing. Just make it a chaingun.
Link select doesn't have a smooth animation.
Something other than gold for the resizes. They look weird with heaps gold in them.

Apart from that, it's fantasic! Love the Busy/Working in Background cursors!
You hurt me UniverseZero.... ;_; Don't use my name...

Anyways Here's My response:

"Ninja needs better transparency around the sides." - I think its fine. You can't really see the transparency when its light and it stands out in the black.

"[Un]Available looks weird flashing. Just make it a chaingun." - The unavailable cursor is seldom seen, and when it is, you want it to be eye-catching.

"Link select doesn't have a smooth animation." - I understand, and it doesn't particularly need it, plus it would be quite hard to do.

"Something other than gold for the resizes. They look weird with heaps gold in them." - The Gold is very small and hard to notice. I don't think it needs a change.
Sorry. Didn't mean to hurt.

1. Oh, is that what's it's for? For standing out in black? In that case, just make the ninja grey or something.

2. Fair enough.

3. Hmm... it would be better with a smooth animation, but I guess it can't be helped...

4. Okay.

lol algud.

1. Maybe I'd make a Grey ninja if it was Grey in the game.
People wouldn't particularly want an untrue representation of the ninja as their cursor.
Its better to have a faint glow around it than making it a different colour or looking like shit.
And besides, what if its on a gray background? :P

2. Cool.

3. Yeah maybe. If you want to supply me with the frames ill be happy to make it. Note they will have to be pretty even.

4. Glad you agree

On another note, I'm making a website for it.
Have a look at it here.
It will be finished soon.

EDIT: Website Finished.

after saving the cursor set you have to browse for each individual cursor file.

As you progress in N, you unlock new colours- one being grey. Black is just the default one.

ExüberNewsFeed: Exuberance is mostly <AFF> (Away From Forums) for a while, though I may still participate in epic contests/threads. When I return, I shall bring several comic updates (enough to finish season 1) and hopefully 1 or 2 games- at least one of which is N-related
Comic Activity-O-Meter: (how often I'm updating my comic)
(Click here to see what each level and half-level means in terms of updates per time period)

NOTE: If I just add a bunch of comics in one day, but plan on going back to normal after that, I probably won't update the status.
+ Dead: Canceled. Done. Maybe you'll get a random comic like once a year, but it's pretty much done.
- Zombie (Dead/Comatose): The comic is probably done regular updates forever, but I'll probably still add something once in a blue moon. It's still POSSIBLE, that I'll raise the status up, but not very likely. Maybe I'll have a comicplosion for like a week, then go back to being dead
+ Comatose: Complete stand-by. No (or very few) updates for some amount of time, but the comic's far from being over
- <AFK> (Comatose/Loitering): Stand-by, but you might possibly count on a few updates once and a while. Again, this is temporary
+ Loitering: Like comatose, but for short amount of times.
- Turtling (Loitering/Semi-Active): Really slooooww updates
+ Semi-Active: One every 2 weeks...ish?
- Quasi-Active (Semi-Active/Active): Averaging about 2 comics every 3 weeks
+ Active: Loosely defined status, but about a weekly update
- Over-Active (Active/Power-leveling): About 2 comics a week
+ Power-leveling: About 3 comics a week. Possible a schedule, possibly not
- Über-Epic (Power-leveling/COMICPLOSION!!): In some cases, this may actually be mean updates more frequently than COMICPLOSION!!, but I'm defining this level as a non-organized comic rush, kind of like a few days after my comic started
+ COMICPLOSION!!: Daily updates for a minimum of 5 days (since the daily updates started. It remains at this status until the 5, 7, whatever days are done)

Oh yeah, I now think it would be even better if the ninja was the opposite colour of the background, making him easier to see. But that would be way to hard for you esay...

Most people are more familiar with the black ninja, and seriously, who's going to use a grey ninja?

The opposite colour of the background?
It's not like i can just click a button to make a pixel 'Multi-coloured'
You would need to make a special program to do it and i have no idea how.
Even if there is a program that can do this, everyone would have to install it, so it would be up to them anyway - nothing to do with me.

Unreality (from his artical on Nreality Image Maps) wrote:Foreground Image

This function also allows a URL image to be inserted into the map. A Foreground Image will be displayed in front of everything else in the map, meaning if you want to see anything, you will need to use a program that can create transparency (e.g: GIMP, Photoshop etc). This excludes paint, so if that's all you have, then you cannot create transparency.

The foreground image can also be made into a color filter, as described here. To do this, add ?# to the end of the image URL, where # is a number between 1 and 14.
Here is an example map of the colour filter: Map 111791 This makes the ninja have an inverted colour to the foreground.

Also, everyone know's the ninja, no matter what colour it is. Just read blue_tetris' RealN Webcomic.

There's actually a difference between N maps and cursors. You just can't do that. And if you can, prove me wrong, make any kind of cursor that inverted.
It doesn't matter about the colour of the ninja anyways, it just depends on the background.
If you would really want it a different colour you can just shift the hue yourself, it's really easy.
