We produce a Biggy-Light <http://www.rjcooper.com/biggy-light> for those
that don't need the wide variety that the full Biggy offers.  There is no dealer program for
Biggy-Light.  It is available only at our web site for $29.

Is a demo available at the download site?

Actually, the demo for Biggy-Light is at <http://www.rjcooper.com/biggy-light>.

While downloading the biggy lite demo, no file name showed up in the box.

Just give it a name, but remember where you are saving it.

What are some of the benifits of Biggy-Light?

The pointers are truly bigger than anything else anyone can do.
You can double the size of application cursors.
Replace application cursors with Biggy.
Increase the thickness of the caret (blinking text insertion cursor).
---------------
How do I choose a different Biggy pointer?

In Biggy-Light, you can choose between the different Biggies just by
going into the Biggy-Light control panel (Apple menu, then Control
Panels, then Biggy-Light), and click on the Pointers tab, then click on
Choose.  At the top of that box is a pull down menu that will give you
different Categories, one of which is Large and Static.
--------------
How do I resize the Mac arrow cursor?

You can edit our Biggies, using ResEdit, as described in the Read Me document in the
Biggy-Light folder that gets installed to your desktop.
------------------

I bought a "Biggy Light" from your website using my Visa Card. It was not clear
at the time that I was purchasing a downloading copy only.

We only sell Biggy-Light as a download.

And yes, you can very easily download to a PC floppy, take that to your
Mac at school, and install it.

Please click here
<http://www.rjcooper.com/download-notes/download.html>, then scroll down
to:

>>2) If you are on a PC when downloading then,

All you need is Stuffit (any version), Netscape, or Internet Explorer,
on your target Mac.

We do not sell Biggy-Light through a purchase order process, or by
shipment.  It just adds too much cost to the product.  We do sell a full
Biggy via purchase order but it's $99.

So if you would, just try to follow the directions at the download-notes
page.

--------------------

I would like to use Biggy while using Video Mirroring.  I am getting trails behind my pointer.

First turn off your Virtual Memory and then set your color depth to "Thousands" of colors.

How can I change the color of a Biggy cursor or create one of my own?
 
For those hearty souls that wish to make their own Biggies, you will need the ubiquitous ResEdit program, available online in many places.  Duplicate the Starter Biggies, and Open your desired copy in ResEdit.  Biggies are 'cicn' resources, and can be any size from 32X32 to 32X64.  We stick to those two sizes.  We use the standard 16 color palette.  Double click on each resource to edit it.  You can Paste PICTs into your editing area, from other applications.  Next, drag your "Color" box down to the "Mask" box to tell your Mac which pixels in the Color box to show, and which ones to be transparent (so you don't have one big rectangle as your Biggy).  

Finally, click on the "B & W" box and draw (use the pencil tool) one (1) point in black to indicate your 'hot spot', that point within your Biggy that will be your active 'location'.  Save your work.  (c:

 How can I change the color of a Biggy cursor or create one of my own?

You can create your own 'Regular' Biggies through a Cursor Creator software program.  There are many free ones available on the web, but the one we like is called Axialis.  You can buy it for around $35. at www.axialis.com
Once edited or created, paste your cursor file in the proper Biggy cursor folder and you're done.  The cursor folders are found within the main Biggy folder and are numbered Cursor00 through Cursor06.  You may want to first look at each folder's contents to see the types of Biggies they contain.

After pasting your new cursor in the proper place, run the Biggy control panel and you will see your new cursor listed and ready to be selected.
