Has anyone been able to modify the appearance of their cursor? I found a program that should do it for mac but apparently it doesn't work on intel macs yet. Are there any alternatives? Also, is it resonable on system resources?

Have you tried changing cursors thru Shapeshifter? I know there there is an option for it somewhere, but you may need to download cursors. There is a UB beta for it (shapeshifter).

Thx! I found that link, but i wasn't sure if it was the right one ;)

Do you happen to know if it's a system hog, in a unreasonable sense?

Nah, not so much in my experience. Just be careful if you do more than changing the cursor (like theme change) as Rosetta programs have been known to crash.

Good luck!
