    One last small item. The text field under "How many books are you showcasing on your Author Site" is too wide. I have tried to make it smaller using the the "Size" button in the tool bar, but no matter how many characters I set it to, the size doesn't change. What am I doing wrong?

    Hi,

    You can easily change the field size manually as well, just open the Designer and Paste this CSS code, you can change the 50% value with your preferred value : 

    #input_284{

        width:50%;

    }

    You can also see the Field's ID by following this guide : http://www.jotform.com/help/146-How-to-find-Field-IDs-Names 

    Hope this will help you.
