From where can one source the mouse cursors you
reference?
Aah, somewhat difficult: I collected them mostly between 2005 and 2007, a 2nd
batch around 2010, plus I did some manual repairs ...
I will gladly provide them, but in total they encompass 213 MB uncompressed.
Either we need some exchange place for the whole chunk or you select specific
cursor sets ...
Just a general google search? What re oyu showing in
your screen-shot?
I'm showing the TDE mouse cursor selection dialog, the keywords given should
help to search for them -- much more information I do not have myself anymore.
It looks much better than I remember the KDE eye candy
page looking.
As kde-look (and the similar named of the other desktops) IMHO lack useful
* tagging or categorisation facilities,
* powerful search filters,
* actually meaningful previews and descriptions (just eye-candy, but no useful
indication of ergonomy, design goals and principles, intended use cases (large
screen, small screen, mouse or touch driven interface, casual vs. extended
use, ...)
* rating differentiation (e.g. independent rating dimensions "aesthetic",
"ergonomic")
they degraded to large junkyards, were you have to dig for hours, just to find
the rare gems.
