Animated Cursor Maker

Animated Cursor Maker is a lightweight software application whose purpose is to help you create animated mouse cursor with multiple images stored in your computer.

The advantages of being portable

Since this is a portable program, it is important to mention that it doesn’t leave any traces in the Windows Registry.
You can copy it on any USB flash drive or other devices, and take it with you whenever you need to generate animated mouse cursors on the breeze, without having to go through installation steps.

Minimalistic looks and basic functionality

Animated Cursor Maker gives you the possibility to upload photos into the working environment using the built-in browse button, so you cannot rely on “drag and drop” operations. There is also support for a previewing function but the area where the image is displayed is very small, so you can actually analyze the picture.
The tool enables you to build a list with the items needed for creating the mouse cursor, delete the selected photos, alter the delaying time (in units or milliseconds), as well as insert hotspots by entering the values for the x and y coordinates.
Last but not least, you can save the animated cursor to ANI file format, provided that you have specified the saving directory and filename. Since it doesn’t require much computer knowledge to set up the dedicated parameters, even rookies can master the entire process with minimum effort. During our testing we have noticed that Animated Cursor Maker carries out a task quickly and without errors.

Bottom line

All in all, if you are looking for a simple-to-configure app that comes bundled with basic functions for helping you generate animated mouse cursors, you can give Animated Cursor Maker a try and see what it can do for you.
