:You are perfectly right, corrected (although I will not update the readme in the archive for this, since noncommercial is mentioned in the text anyway). I am, however, still thinking about the license, generally. For the time being, Attribution-Noncommercial-Share Alike seemed like a safe route to go, but I don't have a problem releasing it under another license if someone could point out a better suited one.

More Cursors
I think somebody might be able to use a busy pointer too.--henke37 13:00, 7 July 2008 (CEST)
- Commonly, Wii software doesn't have "busy pointers" but rather all sorts of different throbber animations. I'd gladly do a "busy pointer" if you could provide me with an example that fits into the pointer scheme. Drmr 16:17, 7 July 2008 (CEST)
- I am thinking of something that's only slightly a rip of the oldschool mac design, a watch on the wrist of a hand.--henke37 18:43, 7 July 2008 (CEST)
- That would be probably too small of a visual cue. Anyway, if the existing cursors get used at all, I will amend the cursor pack with custom produced variants when the need arises (i.e. if a developer requests them). Drmr 22:42, 7 July 2008 (CEST)
- Tapping fingers or some general movement of them? would be nice JD 12:10, 8 July 2008 (CEST)

- Why not just include a throbber centred at the same hotspot as the finger. When the program is busy, it shows the throbber rotating around the pointer position. Xeron 12:51, 8 July 2008 (CEST)
- What about a blue cycle with a rotating dot like that one the Wii uses for loading (see Wii Shop channel)? Matti-Koopa 05:45, 24 July 2008 (CEST)
