hey there...

Personally I think my menu bar is becoming messy with features and function.

I thought an overlay flash module probably could make this cool. The idea was a menu of drop-down for evrything in the menubar. So that when entering, attention is drawn to the images and not the menu as such. This could also be iPhone style cover-flow etc. Should work for any theme

anyone with skills for this??? would love to be the testpilot

The issue is that when adding a module it gets it's own Header that doesn't do anything and then a link to that module. All of these add-on and core functions should be kept together in a nice user friendly way, enhancing the experience for the user....

Example of an iPhone inspired menu:
http://f-source.com/accordion-menu/iphone/

What I had in mind was not an iPhone Layout so to say but rather a menu flow thing as if you scroll around in albums on an iPhone

Requirements in my book:
Lean mean and clean look (one single button "Menu" - on mouse over, options are presented, drop down or even better, star structure (spread out), Row/column structure (mousing left/right and the menu starts scrolling))
Animated if feasible
Work across any theme - theme independent
Add ability for new modules
Selection of whats presented initially and whats second hand information
Selection of where it is presented (Header,Footer,Sidebar left/right)
Possible to create more menus (primary and secondary)

Any ideas?

all the best

I came across this:

Demo of cover flow menu:

The script that does it:

A module example for Drupal:
