@PsychokineticHedgie What code have you written? It would help to see what you had done and what errors might be in it, since there are many potential reasons (typos, etc) something might not 'work'. |

I'm not that skilled with CSS and stuff, so I tried to copy and paste what you had (with my URL of course) and then I tried it with the body selector with the carats around it (I didn't save what wasn't working, should I have done that?). I can try and remake what I was doing and then edit my post with that if that would be helpful. |

@PsychokineticHedgie I still don't quite get it - sorry :,( - I'd appreciate if I could see what you had. So far I can guess the error may be with the body selector - in my code, the * selector should not be edited. Remember that the code I provided should be pasted as-is and on its own, preferably at the top of your CSS file, with only the URL replaced. |

Ahh that might be my issues. I had copied and pasted but left out the asterisk, and I had it at the bottom <body { cursor: url(https://cur.cursors-4u.net/games/images/gam83.gif), default!important; }> This is what I had if it helps |

@PsychokineticHedgie I see! I should also ask whether you're pasting this in the textbox or on a CSS file? Because the Wolvden textbox does not allow inline styling, and erases invalid brackets, which is the content between these symbols <>, upon saving. That being said, in a CSS file, the <> brackets are not needed. If you omit that, the code itself should work. |

I'm pasting it into the Wolvden CSS editor. I currently have the following and it's still not working. * { cursor: url("https://cur.cursors-4u.net/games/images/gam83.gif"), default!important; } |

@PsychokineticHedgie Seems that's the problem - the Wolvden textbox accepts HTML only, not CSS styling. That's why you would have to link CSS externally through the <link rel= ... > tag. The "finishing" portion of my guide has steps on how to accomplish this; it's lengthy, but through this you can get your code to work. |

Okay! I'll try that! |

Would you have an editor suggestion for Android? I've used and love Notepad++ on my laptop but I can't get to it for quite some time and the software is not wanting to open up on my phone |

@SavageWolffSoul Personally, I recommend coding on a computer anyway. But if you want to code on your phone I suggest Quoda. It's similar to Notepad++ |
