I am using Starling to make a really, really, really easy game - I am just trying to add a stationary sprite to the stage...and make it so that when the mouse touches the sprite
I have been practicing with your code and it all seems fine, but ive been using a different image, so that must be the problem.
Make sure the size of the image is below 32x32, thats the max size of an cursor image, otherwise the OS won't accept it.
