For some reason Joomla 2.5 lost the ability to show nice horizontal menus in the footer; instead the items appear vertically.  I personally used this in Joomla 1.5 to show the privacy policy, terms of use, etc. links at the very bottom of every page.  After a little research I found how to accomplish a horizontal footer menu in Joomla 2.5.

1. Add this somewhere at the bottom of your template.css file:

ul.menuflat li
{
display: inline;
padding: 10px;
}

2. Next, edit the module that displays your footer menu.  You'll see a box called "menu suffix."  Enter "flat" (without quotes) in there and save the module.  Your menu should now appear horizontal.
