I like the nav bar too. I use the full-width framework and some tips and code from <a href="http://www.kristarella.com/" rel="nofollow">kristarella.com</a>. She's posted some great tutorials on how to customize <a href="http://diythemes.com/?a_aid=moonand6" rel="nofollow">Thesis</a> quite comprehensively. I used <a href="http://www.kristarella.com/2008/11/thesis-full-width-headers/" rel="nofollow">this tutorial</a> to set up my header. This is the code I use to style my navigation bar: <code> /*---:[ nav menu styles ]:---*/ .custom #nav_area { background:#000; padding:0.5em 0; border-bottom:0px solid #000; position:fixed; z-index:1; } .custom #nav_area ul { border-bottom:none; border-left:none;} .custom #nav_area ul li { border-width:0; margin-bottom:0; margin-right:0px;padding-bottom:0;} ul#tabs { list-style: none; border: 1px solid #000; border-width: 0 0 1px 1px; } ul#tabs li { margin-bottom: -0.1em; background: #000; border: 1px solid #000; border-left: 0; float: left; } ul#tabs li.current_page_item, ul#tabs li.current-cat { padding-bottom: 0em; border-bottom: 0; } ul#tabs li a { font-weight: bold; display: block; line-height: 1em; color: #fff; text-transform: uppercase; letter-spacing: 1px; } ul#tabs li a:hover { color: #aaa; text-decoration: none; } ul#tabs li.current_page_item a, ul#tabs li.current-cat a { cursor: default; background:#000; border: 0px;} ul#tabs li.current_page_item a:hover, ul#tabs li.current-cat a:hover { text-decoration: none; } </code> I hope this helps! Thanks! I like the nav bar too. I use the full-width framework and some tips and code from kristarella.com. She’s posted some great tutorials on how to customize Thesis quite comprehensively. I used this tutorial to set up my header.

This is the code I use to style my navigation bar:

/*---:[ nav menu styles ]:---*/

.custom #nav_area { background:#000; padding:0.5em 0; border-bottom:0px solid #000; position:fixed; z-index:1; }
.custom #nav_area ul { border-bottom:none; border-left:none;}
.custom #nav_area ul li { border-width:0; margin-bottom:0; margin-right:0px;padding-bottom:0;}

ul#tabs { list-style: none; border: 1px solid #000; border-width: 0 0 1px 1px; }

ul#tabs li { margin-bottom: -0.1em; background: #000; border: 1px solid #000; border-left: 0; float: left; }

ul#tabs li.current_page_item, ul#tabs li.current-cat { padding-bottom: 0em; border-bottom: 0; }

ul#tabs li a { font-weight: bold; display: block; line-height: 1em; color: #fff; text-transform: uppercase; letter-spacing: 1px; }

ul#tabs li a:hover { color: #aaa; text-decoration: none; }

ul#tabs li.current_page_item a, ul#tabs li.current-cat a { cursor: default; background:#000; border: 0px;}

ul#tabs li.current_page_item a:hover, ul#tabs li.current-cat a:hover { text-decoration: none; }

I hope this helps!

Any insight on the forums as to how you did this? (I've been looking to do something similar - just haven't been able to get it as "pretty" as yours!) Thanks..:-) F.D.
