// Show the menu up top. Something like [home] [help] [profile] [logout]...
function template_menu()
{
   global $context, $settings, $options, $scripturl, $txt;

   // Work out where we currently are.
   $current_action = 'home';
   if (in_array($context['current_action'], array('admin', 'ban', 'boardrecount', 'cleanperms', 'detailedversion', 'dumpdb', 'featuresettings', 'featuresettings2', 'findmember', 'maintain', 'manageattachments', 'manageboards', 'managecalendar', 'managesearch', 'membergroups', 'modlog', 'news', 'optimizetables', 'packageget', 'packages', 'permissions', 'pgdownload', 'postsettings', 'regcenter', 'repairboards', 'reports', 'serversettings', 'serversettings2', 'smileys', 'viewErrorLog', 'viewmembers')))
      $current_action = 'admin';
   if (in_array($context['current_action'], array('search', 'forum', 'admin', 'calendar', 'profile', 'mlist', 'register', 'login', 'help', 'pm')))
      $current_action = $context['current_action'];
   if ($context['current_action'] == 'search2')
      $current_action = 'search';
   if ($context['current_action'] == 'theme')
      $current_action = isset($_REQUEST['sa']) && $_REQUEST['sa'] == 'pick' ? 'profile' : 'admin';

   // Are we using right-to-left orientation?
   if ($context['right_to_left'])
   {
      $first = 'last';
      $last = 'first';
   }
   else
   {
      $first = 'first';
      $last = 'last';
   }

   // Show the start of the tab section.

function template_menu()

Also, reference this document as it provides a lot of insight of how to modify the template_menu() function.

How do you add custom tabs to the Core (default) theme menu?

And also:

Code Select Expand

// Show the [KickerStore] button.       
               echo '<li><a href="http://astore.amazon.com/kicsblo-20 "><span>KickerStore</span></a></li>';

Should be

Code Select Expand

// Show the [KickerStore] button.       
               echo '<li><a href="http://astore.amazon.com/kicsblo-20">KickerStore</a></li>';
