Hello.
I think one effect is missing in cool-retro-term: glass reflexion.
Check these images for example:
You can notice the glass reflexion on the monitor. I think it could be a really nice effect to have in CRT.
How to add it? Simply let the user choose an image from a file or take a picture directly from the webcam.

There is a $15 open bounty on this issue. Add to the bounty at Bountysource.
This is a sweet idea. Moreover we could also use webcam to retrieve a "live" stream for the reflection.
Really ? I didn't dare to ask (even if I already thought about it) because I was afraid you would say "it could be too much CPU intensive".
The resource consumption is heavily related to the frequency we use to sample the images from the stream, so we can play with it to get the right tradeoff. I think this is something that should be disabled by default. Ah, and thank you for the Bounty.
What's the status/news about the progression (if any) ?
Any updates on this? Any chance this will be implemented?
Thanks for this awesome terminal!
