layout questions., modules and such. Options

[antix10_kos]

before i start....here's a link to my xanga. what you see on that page is what i've accomplished thus far. i have about an intermediate knowledge of code, but i'm just stuck on a few points....

My Questions:

how do i move my modules to the left in their own boxes? Minimalist Example
~I want my modules seperate from my enteries. i think they look tacky...I've tried the code in the "scripts" section. I have trouble with the custom module part.~

will i have to resize my blog box after i take out the modules?
~just fmi~

how do i get a background pic in all of my custom modules?
~I already have a pic uploaded on photobucket. i just need some clean code that i can use with custom modules to do this.~

how do i get rid of my far right scrollbar?
~I am just annoyed by it. I'd rather only have one scrollbar.~

how do i add an intro page (a page that opens before my actual xanga and contains a link to my xanga?)
~I would like to have a page that warns people of the content of my page before they enter so that i don't get rude comments...that's been happening lately ~

that's all of my questions for now. i have looked around on this site and on netsirk for information. point me in the right direction, please....

^ answer to your last question.
um.
is that it? It's an image though. you can post a message on the image ;o Beacuse I dont think there is such thing as an intro page containing WORDS.

And, you only have one scrollbar for me.
