this is the coolest thing about the mintMenu: it takes up a static amount of space, both horizontally and vertically. if the submenu that you mouseover is taller than the window for the menu then the submenu becomes a scrolling window. This way the users eyes can stay within a confined area to search for what one needs. I think it's easier to search for things horizontally than it is to search vertically, but maybe that's me and not a fact. > I would really go with this design, I don't know why very few > other alternative menus follow this concept. Denis, which design are you referring to here? Basically, you're right, it just comes down to preference. I just found this mintMenu over the weekend and wanted to add it to the discussion.
