The Best Type/Location of Menu
Posted: Tue Jan 26, 2010 10:57 am
I've seen a lot of different menus in my time. There are usually just a few main types (verticle, horizontal, text-based, image-based, animated or not). I'd like to know people's thoughts on the best type of menu to use. I tend to favor a horizontal top menu, with horizontal sub-navigation included on pages that have a lot of content. While I like animation with my menus, I keep it under control. The most I usually mess with is the mootools type menu that expands out on a hover, and using jQuery and sprites to do cool transitions.
I'm always on the prowl for cooler ideas, though, so please leave your opinions and if possible an example of your opinion on a live site.
