My 100px custom cursors have all been cut in half in Firefox 9. Has the size for custom cursors been reduced in v 9?

I can't tell exactly how much my custom cursors have been clipped but the 100 px ones appear to have all been clipped to about half their original size. I know in the past Mozilla has reduced the size of custom cursors (which still rankles me). I sincerely hope it hasn't made that mistake again. 128px is small enough, I could easily go with twice that size.

It was an XP issue. I recently reinstalled Windows XP and didn't reinstall svc pack 2 because of the problems encountered in faulty installations of that svc pack on other occasions. But d*mned if I do and d*mned if I don't. On a whim I wondered if that was the problem. Can't say what that had to do with it except it's Windows Operating System so expect every problem you can imagine. I keep swearing I'll buy an Apple but Apple keeps swearing it'll never come down on its prices.

Maybe someone at the MozillaZine "Web Development/Standards Evangelism" forum knows.

The helpers at that forum are more knowledgeable about web development issues.

Possible you have an addon conflict. To make sure:

Help => Restart with addons disabled

Are your cursors back to normal now?

Disabling addons didn't help.

It might be an XP problem or something peculiar to my computer, have you tried using a larger custom cursor on an html page in a PC to validate or invalidate my issue? The cursors are clipped online and offline so it's not a server issue.

Good to know cursor size hasn't been reduced again (yet!). Thanks.
