Yeah, you know, I read a lot about customizing Onet.xml
when it comes to this subject - I'm still just not getting
it. When I open any of the Onet.xml pages, I can't find
these references to links such as "Home" "Topics" "News"
or "Sites". I imagine these links are being formed by
an .aspx page, or maybe a Javascript? Maybe even a .css
file, although I don't know how that would work.

Essentially, the problem is that the SPS site has expanded
over the months, and so instead of just creating a new
Site Template, I have to find a manually way to modify the
code or file that generates the SPS NavBar that
contains "Home Topics News Sites" so I can customize it...

What do you think?
