Since this is old, I assume someone found these photos and then manually selected the pointer location. Maybe used openCV or something like that.. But I'd most likely go with manual.
Yeah probably. It likely made it significantly easier given that the images are always super zoomed in, so a single finger pointing covers roughly 6-8 mouse pointer locations (I'm kind of eye-balling it here).
This one is an old one. I still love it, now with nostalgia. I always wondered how they got all those pictures. It looks like there is a recurrent theme tho.

There are 700+ images defined in https://pointerpointer.com/new-positions.json and the script finds the closest match to the current mouse pointer.

Can you make a version with cats in it? Like cats jumping at the cursor or trying to catch the cursor with their paws.
I don’t see why not, go for it

This is apparently from 2012, but I could've sworn it was older than that.
I think this was created by the people at the art collective of monochrom.at,
This is where I have seen this the first time ca. 2006.
Edit: Now that I searched for it I only found their project ZeigerPointer, where they collect such images, maybe I mixed it up.
good old web2 fun
