What's with this trend of adding some kind of menu overlay on the top of your page that allows text to scroll underneath?
You read a page, then scroll forward a page, and 4 lines of text at the top are obscured. You then have to scroll back up individual lines and try to figure out where you were.
Am I the only one hating on this design trend?
- adventureloop 13y agoI despise this UI trend, if I really want to read a page I will jump into Chome's Inspector and fix the CSS. Otherwise I navigate away.
- Amadou 13y agoIt is a waste of screen space. Something that the UIs of chrome and firefox (and probably other browsers which I don't use) have tried to improve upon in recent years. What the browser giveth, the web designer taketh. While this is probably not too helpful, I didn't even notice the problem on that site because I use a portrait-oriented monitor for my web browser, the entire page was visible without scrolling.
- protomyth 13y agoI look at it and think some web designer really thinks the network logo staying on during an entire television show was a great idea. I just hope they don't start having animated ads drop down from the bar every couple of minutes.
