Actually, I just finally got around to being able to spend some time with building X3
For those of you who have been waiting and wanting more colors... HERE IT IS!! YAYYY!!
This version has minimal animations (only the 'busy' and 'working' cursors) and includes Windows 8's full range of core accent colors.
Leave a nice comment or constructive feedback and enjoy!

Thanks for this. I've been using Metro X for a few years now. first time I saw this version 
Thanks for sharing these amazing mouse cursors👍
I'am using them in my office and at home.
Simply design but elegant.
Great job man........
Best set of cursors I've ever seen. Thank you for creating these little beauties... 
Thanks! I'm using this cursor now and i like Bold White
this is my fav cursor EVER
Does this work in windows 7?
ofc it is
Great cursors!
The orange light cursor install.inf has the below under strings:
CUR_DIR = "Cursors\Metro X3 by exsess\Bold\Orange"
SCHEME_NAME = "Metro X3 Bold-Orange"
Those should be light. I corrected in my local copies and got light installed ok alongside bold, just wanted to point it out so it can be fixed here. Thanks!
