a) Should be able to access it on the main page of your admin panel

b) Use FTP to upload the file

c) You can use simple HTML in a custom block.

d) There are many theme sites for phpNuke, just search for them.

e) You can always create a topic with an transparent image.

If you do not have an FTP account to your website, you should ask your host about it.
