#120 was an interesting idea, but we decided it wouldn't work for the nav scheme we have in mind.

haha, I'm experimenting with navigation ideas now. Here is an example of a "cascading" two-tiered menu. Basically you have a main nav-bar where the current page is highlighted. This current "parent-page" cascades down into a second "sub-nav" that holds "child-pages." This is a solution that requires no fancy javascript or CSS. Opinions?

I have tweaked the FAQ page by upping the font-size about 2px...

NearlyFreeSpeech,
I totally understand on the CSS Dropdowns. I've used them successfully on other projects before and like them a lot, but I had a feeling you wouldn't be happy about the "degrade to javascript" thing.
If you could tell me why this person liked #62/#63 better than #100/#101/#102 I might be able to come up with some sort of compromise between the two.
If it is the border color (grey instead of green) or the font size, then these things can be easily adjusted to your liking.
Either way thanks for the great feedback, this has been a great experience!

While #105/#106/#107/#108/#109 is a very clean design, we're just not comfortable with the trade-offs you describe for the CSS popup and thus we're going to have to eliminate it. Thanks for giving us such the opportunity to consider that avenue.
More feedback to follow as we try to get incoming submissions under control.

Sorry for the deluge of submissions, I just keep revising things I'm not quite happy with.
For this latest revision of my "dropdown design" I added some defining lines to each item on the menu bar.
I also added a #F9F9F9 colored bar below the nav bar to better contain the breadcrumbs (with a #CCC colored bottom border).
I also gave the footer a #F9F9F9 colored background with a #CCC top border.
