It is right above my eyes. The Downloads link at the top. When I click on it , it displays several things that are assume Downloads is a parent of and it shows them in the middle of the page. How was this done?

You can see the source of this page in your browser, check the menu's of your browser.
It's the Primary Links, an unordered list, and I guess they've made the 'buttons' using CSS. The PushButton theme does something similar, I believe.

It's just the project modules main page showing a list of different project types. Those project types are defined in the project module - they aren't part of the main menu. If a site admin created a new project type it would appear on that page.

The primary menu link called "Downloads" just goes to the project modules main page ie "/project"

You could manually create a similar effect by just having a static page with some HTML links to other things. Or if you want a dynamically created list based on whatever data you want - use a PHP snippet of some sort in the page. That's of course if there isn't a module already that does what you want.

I would not even begin to know how to write the snippet but basically I would want a dynamically generated list of terms that were children of the term I used to make the URL.

If the list you want to build is composed of terms, try category module with it's great Table of contents feature out of the box, you could also use the taxonomy context module with taxonomy to build sort of table of content as well for any vocab!

Hope that helps
