what I need is a waterproof computer

[kaigou]

The nice thing about a large computer monitor is that it's big enough to watch HD subs. Also nice is setting up the sofa so I don't have to sit up straight while watching, but can be appropriately lazy, while still able to see the subtitles clearly, even from six or seven feet away.

The problem is that the desk is no longer within easy reach... and it's damn hard to see subtitles through the fuzzy ass of a cat determined to find that Very Last Bit of Jerky that he's convinced must be hidden somewhere under the keyboard. I'm thinking maybe a watershooter. Except that this means if my aim's not perfect, I'll be soaking the screen instead. Maybe I could just wrap the monitor in saran wrap?

You think the cat'd know by now what it means when I yell at him that he's not made out of muddy water.

I totally agree with this. Who made this layout? It's fucking awesome and I may steal.

Heh, glad you like! I threw it together over the weekend, with options for eight or nine different shades. I figured I'd send it to Afuna (or whomever is in charge of layouts now) and see if DW wants it as a public ready-made version. If I can figure out how to do instructions for duplicating, I'll post the code & links to the various images, so you don't have to wait. (There's only one image per version, so it's not like it's that complex.)

That would be freaking awesome, you rock.

Just finished -- it's up, and I think the steps should cover everything. If you run into any difficulty with it, just let me know and I'll help straighten it out (or just explain better) in whatever way I can.
