Custom cursor size. need help.

[danpatch]

Greetings everyone,

I'm Dan and I recently work as intern in an Multimedia company.
I got some problems concering cursors. With realworld cursor editor. I made my own cursor. I need one because I need to capture some software for a demo or showcase. Many of these software use touch screen interface so I made picture of a real hand into a cursor file.

However when I load the cursor windows automaticly resizes it back to 32x32 pixels. Is there any way that I can resize my custom made cursor?
The size I want is somewhere around 150x150 or 200x200 instead of the 32x32.

I use vista but also have a xp OS available.

In case your wondering im using macromedia captivate to capture desktop activity. Also, is there some software or trick that allows me to overlap my current cursor with an image? So I can make my cursor into a picture of a hand.

Thanks for reading,
ps, sorry if im posting in wrong forum. however, the OS seems to affect this. I read that vista can display icons up to 255x255 pixels. I just dont know if cursors can be changed aswell.

- Dan,

Thanks for the reply, but unfortunately that doesnt help.

The key part is that I want a custom cursor with a big size.
Its for a software demonstration.

Even If I somehow can set the custom cursor to extra large that still is a bit too small.

I'm looking for a variable setting to adjust any cursor size.
Not the pre-made (large & extra-large cursor sets.)

Or... something which allows me to overlap my current cursor with an image, which I can resize to my liking.
