OsCommerce can be a bit tricky when it comes to customization. But there are lots of resources available. Google can help out a lot with specific issues and there is always the OsCommerce forum. The Voda Host tutorials are good for getting the basics changed as well.

Most of the content of your store is manged in the Admin section but the layout of the store is changed by modifying the actual files.

I use OsCommerce for my site and have been playing around with it for some time. Sometimes it takes a lot of patience to find what you need.

1) It looks like you did manage to get the logo to change so I'm guessing you got that figured out. It also looks like you managed to add a few new categories. You can remove all of the default categories and products in the Admin section

2) I can't speak to using template for the site as I've customized the layout of my site using the existing files and tailoring them to my needs. To do this you will need an FTP program to upload the files and a good PHP editor (I use Dev-PHP) and a file comparison tool like WinMerge.

For specific issues I use Google. Simply search on OsCommerce and whatever you would like to change. You will find lot's of resources out there. Best of luck.
