Hampshire College Website

Check the navigation on this site. Any interior page changes the orientation of the navigation as well ...

"Get a load of the home page for Hampshire College.

Top menu is ok. Flash menu on the left is invisible unless you run your mouse over the little orange arrows. Only then do you see the menu choices. I don't know about anyone else, but I don't have the patience to run my mouse over little orange arrows to see what's in the menu. And by the way, what the hell is that menu all about? Weird stuff.

Actually, if you don't have the Macromedia Flash plug-in, then you get a reasonably decent-looking site. The web designer also handles the No-Flash situation quite nicely.

Interesting use of "Mystery Meat Navigation." If you click on one of the orange arrows, you're taken to a subpage. To navigate to any of the other Mystery Meat subpages, you have to mouse over the orange arrows BUT this time the text is sideways. Great. Now I have Sideways Mystery Meat Navigation."   continued ...   (Via Web Pages That Suck)
