Has anyone ever made a Boing ball mouse pointer?

Perusing the new 'Amiga pointer archive' site I was surprised not to see a single pointer wit a boing ball in it. Yet it occurs to me this would be the perfect Wait pointer image of all time. I am amazed no one seems to have done it already, I could not find anything like that on Aminet either.

Is anyone aware of such a thing? of course, making one is not so hard but thought I'd ask first.

@NinjaCyborg

yeh and when the mouse is idle for say longer than 1 minute the ball bounces around all over the screen and tracks back exactly where it was left the 2nd the mouse is moved. haha

Well if it morphed into the screensaver, why not

What is this site? A link to it would be helpful, rather than assuming everybody knows it already.

That wasn't there a few days ago but also, it's pretty hideous

Sounds like a great idea, would love a hi-res rotating boingball spinning as a wait pointer in 4.1.

But OS4 doesn't currently do animated pointers, correct? If the pointer is generated from a .info file, then maybe the solution is to extend the .info format to include more than two images?

(Person with no OS4 Amiga speculating...)
