1. Sure it can be resized, just edit the template
2. Dont know about this one
3. Yes you can, it's an Xanthia theme, set a module specific template.
4. Yes it will, that htaccess is only required for shortURLs
(yes, I cleared my browser cache)
I saw the red error (mentioned in the next question) and decided it was better not to proceed since there may be other problems with the install
clicking "no" in "Display right blocks in articles?" in the settings module has no effect
ok, so how do I fix that? Please instruct.
(and why on earth is there a WORD document for a help file???? VERY strange "standard".)

Do you have the compile check turned on in Xanthia configuration?

The red error simply says that you can't enable shortURLs without a .htaccess in your site root. This has nothing to do with any other settings.

You could simply read the documentation [50]...
Take the .htaccess file for the correct extension from the modules/Xanthia/pndocs/shorturls/ folder, and place it in your web root. Then activate shortURLs

That's because the settings module refers to articles, i.e news articles, not forums.
The master.htm template used for all pages except the homepage should not have the right column in it. So unless you have the forums set as your homepage, no right blocks should appear.
Check for updated version of templates [not checked]
The master.htm template (is) used for all pages except the homepage (and) should not have the right column in it.
I also checked

in the Xanthia admin menu
Clear the cache, tick force recompilation, uncheck 'store templates in the database' and you should see your changes
PN theme designers use way too many tables for my liking and many can be deleted with no difference when viewing a page. Maybe it's to be convenient for folks to add stuff in but...I'm crabby tonight;)
First thing I do is add in some table border HTML tags with colors so I can tell the difference.
No image size specs makes it go to whatever size it truly is, I believe.
Get a working theme in order, then try and learn the fancy stuff and realize the power of Xanthia. My opinion is it needs to be done in steps like this. With Xanthia, I hear terms like legacy(no clue what that is) PNrender(don't really know what that is) and Smarty [87](am learning this) that I never heard before. It's too confusing to learn em' all at once. Do the HTML get a good base for your site, then learn the rest.
I was a rookie a few months ago, hope this helps, hang in there.
However, I am finding that master.htm is what the modules use and modules/home.htm is what the home page is using (see the top nav bar for proof: http://www.hvwc.org )
Now I am assuming that I put UNcheck recompilation and REcheck store templates when i've finished altering it. right?
