Given that FTR isn't the most confusing website in the world (generally good design) it is really overkill having these annoying menus. Get rid of them IMO and never look back.
OR, if you insist on keeping them, at least make them look nice. Weird blue text is weird, and the links kind of blend into eachother.
Easier to just do away with them...
I'm ok with blue because hey every other link on FTR is blue, apart from a few exceptions like the main tab headings and so on. And it's a really old web standard, speaking of conventions. The contrast could be better though, for readability. Also for my aesthetic tastes I would make the tabs a bit less bulky by shaving off some of the whitespace under the text. And maybe those up/down arrows are totally superfluous, although it does provide a visual cue that a submenu is there. I dunno.
