About dot Stompernet dot Com (about.stompernet.com)
is the new public (free) website from StomperNet. I helped implement this design and had to learn all about themes in Drupal. It’s still in beta, but it’s well on it’s way. It is an agglomeration site, where all the StomperNet Faculty’s feeds can be found and various other free content, like video in the Squambido player, and the Scrutinizer software.

The Overview:
An interactive navigation bar using CSS with rounded corners. Just put the html as an unordered list and your navigation links as list items and the CSS will do the rest! As shown here! The css will tell the browser to display this special unordered list as the menu. This utilizes a technique to have one background image with three states: normal, hover and active. The css controls the placement of the background image so when you hover, the images is displaced to show only the hover state, and likewise for the active and then returns to the normal state. This is compatible in all the browsers I have checked so far, let me know if you find any issues [thanks].

The Steps:
1. First make the html. An <ul> full of <li> elements.
2. Make the desired backgrounds. Three part background (or two) . One part ‘Normal’ state and another ‘hover’ state and optionally an ‘active’ state. Add additional backgrounds if you want anything like rounded corners, or just a header.
3. The CSS to attach the two together
The Example:
verticalMenuCSS.html
As you can see this is a simple html unordered list with list items.
<ul>
<li class="top">My Site</li>
<li class="middle">Home</li>
<li class="middle">About</li>
<li class="middle">Biography</li>
<li class="middle">Portfolio</li>
<li class="bottom">Contact</li>
</ul>
Here’s the magic.

Here is a website I made for an old band I was in, Reason. The site is all html. I tried to push to navigation in a unique direction, some call it annoying (hint: use the scroll bars). I also designed most art and band art (posters, fliers, album art, etc).

Reason website link, Check out the soundroom for some mp3 downloads!
