User blog comment:Rupert Giles/Global Navigation Update/@comment-3271569-20141205145911

Ok time for some advanced feedback:

The first issue I want to point out with the global navigation is the height. Currently your bar is 57px height. That's way to large for a navigation bar. I can agrea that the navigation bar start to become larger every day but this doesn't change the fact that it's a problem right now. Currently the default height for a top navigation bar is 48px (borders, padding included). I highly recommand to scale your bar towards that size. Currently their are no rules setup for the height on the internet but if their is one than it should be max 50px.

The second point I want to make is your class organisation. The best example is the arrow. You are litterly defined this one 3 times. Every time on a different way:

Now let's talk about the search-container. Here are some changes needed:

Why don't you replace the search-select select menu with a button? Their are only 2 values that can be given ("this wikia" & "all of wikia"). It will allow the user to use this option a lot faster & it will safe some space.

The global-nav-search-input input can easy be set to font-size: 14px and so save some space for the hight.

Good luck ;)
