Welcome to Cursors-4U.com Version 4.0. Big updates and big changes. Thanks for taking part in the beta. We are officially live with the new website.
After 20 years, the site has finally been rebuilt from the ground up. The original Cursors-4U launched back in 2004, and while the classic design served us well, it was time for a modern experience that works on all devices.
What's New Since The Beta:
- Animated images have all been recreated
- They are now WebP. Images are cleaner and show a true representation of the actual cursor file. Rediscover the beauty of some of our animated cursors!
- CSP (Content Security Policy) being used
- This is more of a security thing, but the entire site is now CSP compliant.
- Bug fixes
- Mostly visual bugs related to mobile
- Accessibility and performance fixes from Lighthouse audit
- Cloudflare was auto-injecting some tracker. Removed this and it's fixed. We only use GA here.
- Old blogs imported
- Improvements to the way cursors get added. This will make it easier for me to add content.
- CDN went down during the beta. The issue was our SSL certificate wasn't being auto-renewed. This has been fixed.
What's New With Version 4.0:
- New design with some flavor of the old
- Mobile friendly — browse over 11,000 cursors from your phone or tablet
- Dual theme with light and dark modes
- Sets are now carousels, so you can view more than one cursor at a time
- Multi-size cursors now show every size inside the .cur file
- Embed code is size-selectable up to 128x128. Browsers only support up to 128x128.
- All future cursors going forward will be like this if they have multiple sizes.
- Listing pages will show 96x96 preview images if they have them. If they don't, it's the largest size under 96x96.
- Download cursors from anywhere on the site
- Related Cursors and More by Creator tabs on entry pages
- Search powered by Typesense — fast and accurate results
- Trending page
- Shows daily and weekly trending cursors
- Shows daily trending creators
- Filters on every listing page
- Most viewed
- Most rated
- Most commented
- Tag pages that are AI-generated (still working on this)
- Please update your bookmarks. All the cursor URLs have been changed.
- Comments are back for now
- Favorites system
- Save up to 1,000 favorite cursors
- Custom CSS codes for pointer and hover
- Live preview on the page — see your cursor in action before you commit
- Creator pages — giving credit to the artists who made these cursors
- New servers and a faster CDN behind Cloudflare's global edge network
Still Being Worked On:
- User system
- Automated upload system
- Upload images that turn into .cur and .ani files automatically
- Marketplace system so people can sell their cursors (I don't plan to charge a fee for this)
- Linux cursor support — this is being explored
- Site-wide live preview for whatever cursor you select, similar to the favorites page
- Creating a subdomain where the old design will live, as someone suggested
