📐 Recommended Image Details

Choose an image that balances visibility and precision:

• Format: .PNG with a transparent background

• Size: 24×24 to 32×32 pixels is typical

• Click hotspot: The cursor click registers from the top-left corner of the image

⚠️ Large cursors can feel intrusive and affect click accuracy.

🎯 Design Tips

When designing your cursor image:

• Keep icons simple and high contrast

• Include a visual pointer in the top-left corner for accuracy

• Avoid centered designs unless intentionally offsetting the click zone

💡 Tools like Photoshop or Figma are helpful for adding click indicators to your image.
