I'm not sure what to say now. :I Newbies get confused quickly. I should hold up a sign that says, "Please don't use sarcasm in front of me! I do not understand that alien concept!"

Ha I suppose it is. But lately I've been having trouble understanding many things online, for some reason. Maybe it's because I've been spending more time in front of people rather than reading text. I need to get back into internet mode!

I'm glad you took the time to write this. It's beautiful and so helpful!
EDIT: Wow, I completely forgot I had looked at this before... o_e Well, double compliment?

When writing a book for Skyrim does the CK automatically change the font when the book is opened in game or does big words on CK mean big words in the book in game?

I do not know. This is likely a question you should ask in the modder's workshop. Their group handles stuff of this nature.

When I write I sometimes find that when I'm writing conversations I look over it and see that it sounds like the people evolved in the conversation are just standing there doing nothing? Any advice for conversations and the like?

Sure!
The thing to remember is that conversations aren't just about spoken dialogue. Small movements, facial expressions, hand gestures, and many other things play a role in how we communicate. Sometimes these can reveal more about a character than their words, as they may hint at how a person feels or perceives the situation.
Other times we perform actions during conversations for reasons outside of the conversation itself, such as shifting our weight in a seat because we're uncomfortable, or leaning against a wall if we're tired of standing.
Of course, you don't have to describe every single movement a person makes during a conversation. Sometimes leaving in dialogue alone is enough. The reader can fill in blanks with his or her imagination.
Basically, you want to use conversations purposefully. Use them as opportunities to show subtleties in your characters' personalities.
Oh, and read stuff from writers who do conversations well! You can learn a lot by example.
