Get what works for you.  Depending on how formal the room is, if it is slightly casual, you can go to the bottom of the window sill.

 

If long is an issue, for what or whom are you giving your comfort for?

I think it depends on your overall decorating style.  Look at pictures online to get some ideas.

@CherryHugs ................Why on earth would you get drapes you dont want for your home?  Get what you like.

 

Why do you think drapes that go to the floor are the "best type"?  Your home, your choice.  You live with it everyday.

All of my furnace vents are on the floor under my windows. They are designed that way to avoid cold spots. But if you have curtains/drapes of any length on the windows then the heat will be captured by the curtains/drapes and it won't circulate out into the room. I use heater vent deflectors. That way the hot air is pushed out into the room rather than up the drapes.
