all kinds of menus

You can find some very nice custom menus at http://bloggerhowtotips.blogspot.com/

The image above shows you a selection from the available styles which you can generate on the site. On the left are vertical HTML/CSS menus and on the right are drop down vertical menus. Both pages give you the codes for all of the different design styles and also tell you exactly how to use them, which incidentally is through yet another HTML/CSS gadget - love these things!

And then there is also a smoothly animated multilevel drop down menu; again you can obtain the code for this from here, and again, this too works through the HTML/CSS gadget.

image based menus

Look on the left column right here on this site and you will see that the pages menu now has image buttons with rollovers instead of just plain text ones. This was done with a code generated here:

So easy it is almost ridiculous!

Once you have the code, go to Design and add an HTML/CSS gadget to one of your columns, paste the code, save - and you are done!  (Tip:  Needless to say, you can make more than just 3 buttons. The generator gives you 5 to begin with anyway. However if you have even more than that, simply copy paste the lines from the script and change the image and destination URLs in the added lines.   ) 

Some other nice stuff too on this site by the way, such as a pull down menu generator, a pop-up window maker, a story generator - gotta love this one! :-), lots of image effects, text effects, and and...
