I figured I might as well let you all critique what i’m working on: [http://filebox.vt.edu/users/mdimatul/FLA/dropmenu.html](http://filebox.vt.edu/users/mdimatul/FLA/dropmenu.html) Like said, be honest. Is my style overused? Do you just plain not like it? Colors off? Whatever, i’m all ears. Thanks. ---

the menu scared me when it came in… eeeeeek! and I’m not a fan of mystery meat navs, but I really like the style, the monochrome aspect is really cool… other than that… I liked the animation on the nav, just wasn’t expecting it was all… ::goes and opens a beer:: Rev ![](http://www.aulman.com/rev.gif) ---

This is turning into “You show me yours and I’ll show you mine”, isn’t it? 😛 Very dumb question, but where did you get that cool little ‘blip’ sound? I’ve always wanted one… 🙂 I like it. As Rev says, it is a bit a mystery nav, but it’s pretty much obvious what you have to do… And I like black and white stuff anyway \_Looks at footer etc as backup_\ Yeah, nice. 🙂 ---

Kit --\> [http://www.flashkit.com/soundfx/Interfaces/Beeps/High\_Bee-Public\_D-135/index.php](http://www.flashkit.com/soundfx/Interfaces/Beeps/High_Bee-Public_D-135/index.php) From what I take, no go for that menu, huh? i’ll think of something else on the way home. For some reason, I get the best ideas when i’m not in front of my computer with Flash open. ---

Ooo, cool, thanks. 🙂 I never really bother with Flashkit, would you believe. 🙂 I think it could work, in the right page design. 🙂 ---

I like it, I think it’s pretty neat the way the text bounces when it hits the box. =) ---

What have I started!?!?!?! Anywho, I think it needs more color, and I am not a fan of mystery meat navigation either, but I do love the effect of the words coming in… so I am kind of torn :-\ ---

I like the way the words come 🙂 And yes, a bit of color would probably be a good idea. ---

blah blah blah… ditto, ditto, blah, blah 🙂 Usability would require you to let the user know where they are supposed to click. I like the rest. I am working on a “simplified” approach, much like yours, but I’m not ready to “whip it out” and show it… yet. ---

Ok, totally new direction. I threw this splash page together in photoshop: ![](http://filebox.vt.edu/users/mdimatul/PR/pRomo_button.jpg) I’m thinking i’m gonna design my site similar to this style; using the colors and fades. Tell me what you guys think. Critique away. ---
