Question:  Has the CursorXP gallery on Wincustomize been renamed to CursorFX and the image updated?

How will CursorXP users who are not or cannot get CursorFX going to know what cursors will work for both apps and which ones are CursorFX only?

Things I really like:
  • Movement smoothness.  I jacked that way up; it's like the cursor is floating.  Add that to. .
  • Shadow effects - easy to adjust.  I pumped up the Y so the cursor is WAAAY up there
  • The bullet hole effect
  • the Platinum cursor
  • Nice, big previews

Reminds me of a song. "Im getting new looks from a old lover again". I do like stardock but this is just one way to get more money. They could have done something with CursorXP but its been sitting there for so long. So what they will do is fix it so you cant use any FX cursors with cursorXP to make you upgrade. But then again sometimes a new version changes so much that paying for a upgrade is great. But someone asked what does FX do that XP dont? I dont want to pay more just for a new look.

So I'm a lil confused. Do I wait for an email from SD? I just bought CXP Plus about a month ago, so I guess I'm entitled to a free upgrade to CFX Plus? When I go to the site and put in my CXP serial #, it tells me I can upgrade for $9.95.....

It doesn't 'make' you do anything at all.  I am still using Winamp 2.9x ....and have absolutely no interest in kJofol's WA3 or any subsequent version.

If it's good enough then it's good enough.  If people want the newest and/or best then go for it...upgrade.  It's a free market economy for exactly that reason.....;)

The NERVE of some people. How about some old animal pelts and some conch shells?

This app sounds KILLER! Watching it. If Zubac thinks it's good, good enough for me. Thanks, Stardock. Always something new and cool. What a crew.  :CONGRAT:

$9.95 to upgrade? About £5... OMG! That's two pints of beer and a packet of crisps!

Guess I'll have to go to the pub half an hour later so I can afford this...  ;p
