title: Use custom image in QCursor
body: <p>I have a .bmp image that I would like to use as a cursor for my GUI. The <a href="http://pyqt.sourceforge.net/Docs/PyQt4/qcursor.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">QCursor Documentation</a> suggests that this is possible ("To create a cursor with your own bitmap, either use the QCursor constructor which takes a bitmap and a mask or the constructor which takes a pixmap as arguments") but I can't seem to get it to work as I get 'TypeError: QCursor(): argument 1 has unexpected type 'str'' when I try to use the suggested module with my bitmap. How should this be done? </p>
  
  <p>Below is a code that produces said error. The docs also suggest passing an alpha mask and two other values into QCursor but I am not sure if these are necessary and what they should be if they are.</p>
  
  <pre><code>import sys
  from PyQt4 import QtGui, QtCore
  
  QtGui.QCursor('image.bmp')
  
  class Window(QtGui.QMainWindow):
  
      def __init__(self):
          super(Window, self).__init__()
          self.setGeometry(50, 50, 500, 300)
          cursor = QtGui.QPixmap('image.bmp')
          self.setCursor(QtGui.QCursor(cursor))
          self.home()
  
      def home(self):
          btn = QtGui.QPushButton("Quit", self)
          btn.clicked.connect(QtCore.QCoreApplication.instance().quit)
          btn.resize(100,100)
          btn.move(100,100)
          self.show()
  
  
  def run():
      app = QtGui.QApplication(sys.argv)
      GUI = Window()
      sys.exit(app.exec_())
  
  run()
  </code></pre>
