for some reason, when i try to use a skin other than the default ones that come standard, my mouse pointer does not show up in the window. i can move my mouse pointer out of the window (when xbmc is windowed) and the mouse shows up on my desktop, but then i bring it back into the xbmc window and it disappears. any help?

are you using Aeon? I think the author disabled the mouse

Same problem here with PM3.HD. It often happens that when I start xbmc the mouse cursor disappears. In that case I have to close xbmc and relaunch it.

You need to complain to the skin author to include a mouse pointer texture. Though they usually don't include this because they haven't bothered to make their skin mouse friendly, so it probably isn't going to get you anywhere.

thing is that ALL 3rd party skins do this, not just a few. are most 3rd party skins hiding the mouse on purpose? maybe you guys could recommend one that doesn't hide the pointer then :p
