Description
EDIT - Did a revamp of the Green Screwdriver cos it was a bit buggy
As if this hasn't been done enough already... just thought i'd have a go myself
They are by no means perfect but we have:
Eleven's green sonic screwdriver (with variations for "working" and "help select" for windows) 
Nine/Ten's blue sonic screwdriver (again with variations for "working" and "help select" for windows) 
The new style tardis for "link select" in windows... and finally...
a glowy blue rendition of the seal of rassilon for "busy" (whats usually a little hourglass in windows)These work fine with XP and 7. Hit "Download" to get them but if your not sure how to use them on your OS then search google
(for windows usually under "mouse -> pointers" in the control panel but to get them to stick in 7 (and possibly vista too) change them under "personalise"
and save your theme...)
Just in case anyone wanted this sort of technical info... pointer "hotspots" are at the screwdriver tips and the middle of the light on the tardis - just incase anyone has trouble clicking on anything with these.... (i should mention that the "hotspot" on the green screwdriver is in a bit of a dodgy place due to the extendy nature of the screwdriver.... :/ )
If you want to personalise your desktop even further - check out my gallifreyan desktop-icon set here: [link]

Sorry I do not. I had a look for you to see if these ones would work on Mac but it looks like it's really hard, if not impossible, to change mac mouse pointers so you might be out of luck sorry

There should be a button on the top right of the screen (just above the "More from CrimsonReach" box) that will let you download them

You need to unpack the zip file and put the files in a location that the settings for the cursors/icons can see Β - I suggest you google how to use custom icons and cursors on the type of operating system you're using since there are different ways to do it depending on OS.

The Artist description for both this deviation and the one for the icons already tells you how to use them in windows. Did you read this? Here it is again for you:
Right-click on your desktop -> personalise -> on the left click change mouse pointers -> browse button in the bottom right -> pick the cursors you want -> possibly you might need to untick "allow themes to change mouse pointers" and then click save. If the pointers didn't stay after you restart your computer then you need to move the files to the windows folder on your c: then redo the above.
For the iconsΒ most windows desktop icons can be changed by right-clicking the icon, going under properties, then the "shortcut" tab and clicking "change icon" - Some however- like your user folder (or "My Documents" etc.) have to be changed a different way. here's how:Β right-click the desktop and go "personalise" - theres an option down the left-hand side that says "change desktop icons" - use thatΒ (unfortunately there are a few programs (like skype) that won't let you change the icon at all - sorry)
Next time you might find you answer quicker if you read the information that's already there to help you - if you're stuck or confused by anything please tell me what part so i'm not trying to help you with the wrong thing.

Instead of the default blue, glowing circle with the screwdrivers, why not a miniature TARDIS flying around?
