I am currently creating a first person shooter game. I have a first person script and a movement speed script (I want it to be fast paced) but I have no clue on how to add crosshairs. I want them to stay in the middle of the screen and I don't want the ordinary mouse pointer to be in the way. Also I would like to be able to choose my own image for the crosshair (if at all possible).
COMMUNITY QUESTION
How do I add crosshairs to my game?

The easiest way to achieve a desirable effect is to use a GUI to make the crosshairs, since this is in first person after all, and set the mouse cursor to a blank image, such as this one (Note that that is a ROBLOX Image, not a Decal).
In a LocalScript:
game.Players.LocalPlayer:GetMouse().Icon = "http://www.roblox.com/asset/?id=22416261"
what i do is make a frame then size it, duplicate it, then rotate it 90 degrees so it gets a perfectly in the middle. also i have to make sure the mouse isn't visible

Okay so I got the normal cursor to disappear (thanks to your script) but now how would I go about setting my own image to be the new crosshair?
You'll have to create a centered GUI for that. There are quite a few tutorials on the Wiki for that, or you could take one from Free Models.
I'm actually having an issue now with the blank crosshair script you gave me. It only works like once then it stops working. It only works when I am on studio mode and click test but when I go click play on the game it doesn't work anymore.
LocalScript are weird. Try adding a
wait(1)to the start of it.Or 'repeat wait() until game.Players.LocalPlayer'
