    Yes, you can create a desktop switcher button on the taskbar and then put more icons on the `normal` desktop.
    Instructions: viewtopic.php?f=31&t=1525

    Yes, you can install another theme by replacing the original desktop images, to new ones.

    Yes, you can install a dock, but you have to be in the `normal` desktop and it is recommended to have at least 1GB RAM!
    Some Information: viewtopic.php?f=31&t=5015

    I think you will be able to do enough...

    Yes! Press the PrtSc SysRq button on the keyboard (very top, 4th from left). A box will pop up and ask where to save it.
