Aha-Soft IconXP allows you to edit icons and customize the Windows desktop appearance.

It supports the new icon format introduced in Windows Vista (employs smooth transparency and other visual effects). Using this program you can create and edit icons in either standard or custom sizes, with color depths up to 32-bit True Color with 8-bit alpha channel.

Paint tools include: color replacer, color selector, spray can, pencil, brush, flood fill, text tool, line tool, rectangle, curve, ellipse, 3d frame. Modifiers can also be used to apply color gradients and chess fills. For Windows XP icons, you get to add cool drop shadow and smooth effects.

IconXP supports .ico, .ani, .cur, .wmf, .emf, .bmp, .jpg, .jpeg, .gif, .png, .xpm, .xbm, .wbmp, Mac OS icons and Adobe Photoshop .psd file formats. You can import images from screen captures.

IconXP allows you to import, export and change color palettes for icon images.

IconXP allows you to change standard Windows icons, folder icons and customize desktop attributes.

You can easily replace, colorize and save the icons Windows uses to display various objects - My Computer, Recycle Bin, Internet, Start menu items, drives, system folders and your own folders. You can also hide or change shortcut overlays. There are also commands that change the desktop icons size and color resolution, and rebuild the icon cache.

I tried it right away with .ani cursors editing and found that some of the tools were quickly accessable, while others like "smooth" filters were harder to repeat for each image in the animation. When trying to view or use the cursor, I was not happy. Perhaps that is because it is shareware and it doesn't want you to have access to that? I dunno, that don't make sense, since it's a 30 day trial anyway. I can't say that I like it right off, since I want to edit ani files at 32bit which is what this program offers, but hasn't delivered yet. I will play with it some more and come back in a day or two. If I don't come back with a message, I gave it a try but won't promote or critic it. U Decide.
