Hi Stephanie,

open Synaptic and type "cursor" in search, a few different packages will show and you can select the cursor packages you want, I use the Chameleon package myself.

To change the cursor theme, you will need to install gnome-tweak-tool package if not already installed, you will find it in the menu under "System Tools > Preferences > Tweak Tool":

Code:
sudo apt-get install gnome-tweak-tool

Hi,

if you restarted or at least logged out/back in, it should be in the Zorin Menu > System Tools > Preferences > Tweak Tool!:
