Brief Answer:
That looks like a positive test

Detailed Answer:
Based on what you have told me (that a cross indicates a positive test) the result of this pregnancy test is positive. Sometimes a test will turn falsely positive if it sits too long, so they often need to be read immediately (within the first 10 minutes or so). I am assuming that the faint cross appeared immediately.

The strength of the reaction will depend on how far along you are. If you were further along, the cross would be darker. You are probably early (perhaps only 10-14 days from conception). If you repeat the test even in just 1-2 days it should be even more obvious.

HCG levels in your blood will double every 48 hours in a normal pregnancy.

I hope that this helps and good luck!
