2) How do I change the size of the actual header (instead of my picture). The default size is 940 by 150, but I need the height to be larger (maybe 200).

You can do that by overriding the built in theme header with your own. First, you should upload your header image with the final dimensions you want to your media library.

Use this CSS and replace the image inside url() with a direct link to the image you uploaded to your media library.

#header-image a img {
display: none;
}

#header-image a {
display: inline-block;
background: url(http://developingsolutionsllc.files.wordpress.com/2012/03/cropped-dsca-logo8.jpg) no-repeat center center;
width: 940px;
height: 200px;
}

1) How do I remove the "leave a message" box from all of my pages

CSS editing is not required to enable or disable comments on any post or page. This page > Settings > Discussion
Discussion settings is where you set up defaults for comments.
We can also override the default settings and enable or disable future comments on any post or page.
http://wpbtips.wordpress.com/2010/04/23/comments-off-1/
However, depending on the theme we use when we close comments a phrase like "comments closed" or a similar phrase may appear and if so, it can only be removed by CSS editing after purchasing a custom design upgrade.

Only Staff can access and edit those files as every edit they make effects every blog wearing the same themes.

Purchasing a custom design upgrade http://en.support.wordpress.com/custom-design/ allows us to change only appearance by CSS editing. http://en.support.wordpress.com/editing-css/ CSS editing cannot be used to change the way any theme functions.
