How do you use a custom mouse Cursor in a .NET application?

Question

Well, as the title says, how can I set an image or anything else as the mouse cursor. I know you can use the built in ones that are part of the Cursors class, but I was wondering if there's a way to use your own image (preferably without P/Invoke, but either way is fine.)

EDIT: I guess I didn't explain what I wanted clearly enough. I don't have any .cur files (are they easy to create?), I want to know if there's a way to take an image from disk (or wherever) and use that as the cursor. Ultimatley what I'd like would be to do something like this:

myForm.Cursor = new Cursor(Image.FromFile("foo.jpg"));

Possible?

At the simplest, you just use:

form.Cursor = new Cursor(path);

But there are overloads to load from other sources (an unmanaged pointer, a raw stream, or a resx).
