Go to Tools - Options - System Options - Display - Element Colors - Model Crosshairs & Sheet Crosshairs to set the colors.
Go to Graphics Area - Pointer size - Set to 100 to get the crosshairs to fill the screen (if desired)
Go to Drafting Options - User Preferences - Entity Selection - Selection Box Size to set the size of the Pick Box.

Once again, many thanks Sylvia

I managed the first two, but I cannot find the area to adjust the pick box size.

Can you give be directions from the tools, drop down, please.

Hey BC,
Sylvia had all right information, but he messed up the order a little bit.

Go to Tools - Options - User Preferences - Drafting Options

Then it is one of these 4 locations, or a combination of all of them.

Display - Pointer Cues
Display - Gravity Box
Entity Selection - Selection Settings
Entity Selection - EGrips Size
