I love seeing web designers and graphic artist artwork, i love how they mix the tone , the color and the sharp of a certain layout. However, there are still some common mistakes they make.


I once saw this in several web designs, is hard to find the navigation, because of the artistic designs such as using things like drop down menus for navigation can make your pages less user-friendly.

Share us what you think their most common mistakes?

I don't think drop down menus aren't necessarily non user-friendly. The common mistake with that is that it's hard to figure out that the navigation has drop down menus (for example, they usually have some kind of marker letting users and visitors know that there's a drop down menu). And besides, most drop down menus are activated on hover so that instantly lets you know it's a drop down menu. And it's a much more organized way of keeping all of your links in place under certain categories instead of a shitload of links everywhere or going down almost the entire page length.
