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 TJ

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

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...)
