Trying to get a picture of a pointing hand - 11/14/2001 14:37:00   
I am trying to find a picture of the good old pointing hand for a class. You know, when your cursor turns into a hand over a link? Tried playing around with screenshots but I can't figure it out. Help!! Thanks!

If you want just the hand with no link showing behind it, put a large white gif on a white page and give the image a hyperlink. Now when you preview you'll be able to easily get a screen capture of the mouse "hand" over that link.

In an image program, make a new image that's white and save as a gif. If you need more step-by-step info, let us know what image program you have.

Do a 'Search' of your hard drive. The hand .gif should show up.

Have you tried using the Print Scrn key and pasting into PSP or Photoshop? Just be sure you have the hand showing when clicking Print Screen and you should have it captured onto your clipboard. After you paste it into an image program, then you can crop the image to what you need.

Hi

Alternatively you could have a look at the font Wingdings or Windings 2, both have a pointing hand, maybe you'll find what you want there. Another option is to download SnagIt from www.techsmith.com which allows you to choose if you want the cursor showing on the screenshot.

Cheers
