If you don't see any resize window cursors and installed this cursors using KControl it's because of a KDE bug, please use the install script to fix it and read the README file
As before this cursors are work of Maur (http://maur.shellscape.org/).Last changelog:
0.1 - Initial release of RevRedux 2
0.2 - Compatible with KDE 3.2 installer Rebuild all cursors with a softer, nicer shadow. Added some more cursors. And new cool screenshots!
0.3 - Fixed a bug in watch cursor Smaller download
0.4 - Added a new graphical install script using kdialog
0.5 - Fixed 2 missing symlinks
0.6 - Whole new shadow! Tell me what you think of it. Copy, Move and Link cursors changed, please comment this too! Added suport for Mozilla/Firefox help cursor. Source images are now way smaller meaning faster and smaller theme.
Oh well... we can't please them all you know? Anyway i might include the old shadow too in a new version but i really think this should be done by the user by editing X server settings or using a tool that sets cursor shadows.
The folks that do X servers should really think about this...
Unfortunly this is or seems to be a KDE bug, when you use KControl to install a cursor theme, all the symlinks are lost :-(
To fix it do this:
1. Go to ~/.icons/RevRedux2 directory
2. Remove 'cursors' directory
3. Download the theme again
4. Extract it to somewhere
5. Copy the newly extracted 'cursors' directory to ~/.icons/RevRedux2 directory
6. Select this theme again in KControl and apply it
This should fix it, this is why I don't use KControl to install cursors, I just use it to switch between them.
Please tell me if it worked!
Also i'm going to do a graphical install script to prevent this from happening.
Sorry if this has caused to you any trouble.
Now there is only 'sources' directory, to install run 'Install' script. It will create RevRedux 2 theme in ~/.icons/RevRedux2
Fixed symlinks, in previous version i've just made copies of cursors, no symlinks at all, seems like this has caused some trouble to more sensitive QT/KDE installs (altrough i didn't had any problem).
Also added some more cursors and symlinks, like Nautilus copy, move and link and Metacity window move
Have fun and tell me what you think!

Really love this theme, it's very unique and detailed, but isn't too heavy. I like the 'transforming' feel. Great job on this one.

old shadow's much more better.
I like the old shadows more, I'm still using the old cursor theme. I'd like to have a transparent theme like that.
Really smart, deserves a much higher rating. :-)
I found some cursors are still missing: the watches and the resize window cursors. Nice work btw, it's my favourite cursor theme KDE 3.2.2 on Suse 9

Worked like a charm :D Thanx a lot!
The window decoration is Fahrenheit Window Decoration (http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php?content=2108) The wallpaper is Linux XP (http://www.themexp.org/preview.php?mid=15674&type=wp&view=&page=&cat=&name=Linux+xp.zip) And it's nice indeed! ^_^

Nice window decoration, too. What is it?
Your mouse theme is amazing, I love it.
