Is it possible to show Cooldowns of Abilities in the middle of my screen?

Hi!

So I've come back to GW2 after (while still) playing WoW, and for WoW you have a ton of addons. One of them is Weak Auras, which allows you to create Icons or Auras in the Middle of your screen (or wherever you want) to show stuff like CD's of your abilities.

My question is, is it possible to show CD's of my abilities in the middle of my screen? Or do things like that not exist in GW2, so I have to use the default UI?

No anet devaluated the GUI compared to GW1 and any other MMO in order to have a 'unified' and 'recognisable' UI, so everyone sees it's GW2 and to make it so that there are no disadvantages for people who are too stupid/ignorant/lazy to change their UI.

Sadly not. The only thing you can change is that it will show the seconds till the skill is selectable again (i think deault is the "loading up" animation) but can´t tell you how the option point is called at the moment.

Not like you would be able to see anything in the middle of the screen when skills are being used. Hard enough to see what a mob is doing at times.
