Editing Navbar links

[Manipulation]

<font face="Century Gothic">Hello, I've done quite a bit of research and looked through the templates. However, I'm barley novice at coding, however I gave it my attempt. What I'm trying to do is to condense the links in the Nav sections. I would like the "Navigation" to include more, such as VB3 had done. I'm also trying to figure out how to remove the settings link and replace it with a "User CP" dropdown box. On the lower navbar sections I would like to remove the new posts, forum actions and privates messages. (not getting rid of PM's, feels redundant on both top and bottom). "Groups", "Albums" and "Friends & Contacts" would go in the User CP and I'd like to move the "F.A.Q." and "Calender" into the Community" dropdown. I would also remove quick links and move view staff to the community dropdown.

If anyone can help me with this I would greatly appreciate any help. Thank you!</font>
