***YOU CAN DOWNLOAD CURSORS AND THEMES @ http://www.gnome-look.org/
For installing new cursors, desklets, splash screens and login screens, please visit http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=77694.

For installing cursors;

This does require extra files or applications.
1. First we have to install gcursor application (cursor manager) on Ubuntu. Open the terminal and write:

sudo aptitude install gcursor

2. Go to Gnome-look.org and pick the cursor(s) you want.
3. Go to System tab ---> Preferences ---> Cursor Selection.
4. Push the Install Theme button, browse and select the cursor. No need to unpack the cursor files. Gcursor will do that for you.
5. Now pick the cursor you want in the Xcursor menu and press the Close button. The new cursor will first appear when you log in next time.


NOTE: If the cursor you have selected in gcursor don't appear in the menu then press the Go To Theme Folder button, click the folder named after the cursor. There should be a new folder with the name of you cursor in there. Right click it and choose cut. Press the Up button in your file browser and Paste the file here. That should do the trick.

Have fun!
