Suggestions neede: Menu System

[bloc]

What really would be cool, is to have Amber theme display multiple levels..and in the same graphics as the menu. But it require that all menus go in a array first, with a "level" on each, so the rendering routine knows where everything goes.

Not bad lol But kind of hard to see its there before you try it. I think having visible main menus is better then.

yea im working on this for my site with a small sign to tell the user that menu is activated by clicking anywhere on the screen

I just hope my visitors can read

I've been wondering about something like what's implemented with SMF's Advanced Search page. You can click on the "Choose a board to search in, or search all" and it will expand and show the categories / boards to search in underneath.

I'd love to see a menu block like that. You know, just have the main categories always showing and then the articles / links / etc. shrinked and not showing. So, when you click on the category or on an image (ex: the + and - buttons), it'll expand and show the articles / links / etc. Click on it again, and they'll shrink and not show.

I think SMF desperately needs to incorporate vB style menus - they look very elegant plus they really make posibilities limitless with drop down menus and search box in menus etc etc

not to mention they also use it for "thread tools" if u know what i mean - those thread tools are AWESOME

Well we have our very own SMF theme guru here that has a good influence on the default theme for SMF. Maybe we can convince him to do something similar, but better.
