Linux Mint, sponsoring and pull requests #125

Hi AbdulKaiz,

Your cursor themes look amazing. It's an area Linux distributions have neglected for a while.

First of all, I'd like to say thank you. We decided to sponsor you on Github to express our gratitude for the amazing artwork and the free licensing.

We will be shipping some of the themes in Linux Mint 21.1 and featuring them in our announcements for the new release. We want to move towards a new default cursor theme. We're thinking of using Bibata for that. We also want to give people more choice moving forward by including alternative themes.

There are a few minor modifications we'd like to do. Namely, the link and move emblems are hard to see and a bit confusing when DNDing files around.

We're addressing this by simplifying the link emblem and removing the move emblem on dnd-move.

Let us know if this is something you'd be happy to merge. If so we can prepare pull requests. Otherwise we can simply patch our own version, or if you prefer us to use a different theme name, we can create a variant and give you credit as the theme it's based on. Whichever you prefer.

We look forward to working with you. Best of luck and many thanks.

Hi AbdulKaiz,

I made the following changes.

Because the cursor is quite small on the screen, the move emblem was hard to see. I changed it to a dot, and removed it entirely on DND:

I modified the link emblem for the same reasons. I chose a chain icon but an arrow could work just as well I guess.

And finally I modified the colors. I set green for copy, it's usually associated to adding and plus signs. Grey for the links. And that left blue for moving.

Let me know which changes you're interested in, I can make individual PRs for them.
