It's also better than themes that come with Superfish. It's now a standard for me. But I wish they had settings for colors.

I got burned out fighting with the D7 nice menus module's CSS and have found that the superfish module is better out of the box right now.

I generally do this from scratch, though combinations of menu_block and nice_menus may suffice.
Drupal ships with jQuery, so it is best to use that library for animations. The Drupal.behaviors syntax is the proper implementation, which is not well-documented, but there are many examples in Drupal core/contrib and perhaps some blog post tutorials on the web.
If the JS is particular to a single theme, the best way to add the file is generally via http://drupal.org/node/171205#scripts

Thanks Carl,
Yes, CSS would probably do 80% of what I want, I will google for how to exactly do the theming bit. Would throwing in some java script give me enough to do some animation-effects?

Sorry if I sound kind of newbee, this is because I am (for drupal at least).

to make them look nice
What do you mean by "nice?" If you are simply after better aesthetics, making CSS changes to your theme (create a custom theme or a subtheme, don't hack core) is probably your best option.
If you are interested in presenting them in an alternative structure, http://drupal.org/project/menu_block may be helpful

Hi,
I am using *book* menu's in* Drupal 7 *but want to make them look nice. I found the* 'nice menus' module*, but I was not able to make my book menus nicer with it. Most hints and tips I find on this subject seem to be for Drupal 6...
Any hints on how to do this or where to look?
Thanks, Tom
