By that I mean, take a look at the standard new member template you include

On the left hand side, the menu items have a rather large space between the left side of the table and the bullet points.

Actually it was intentional but yes you can remove it if you want to. Edit webtemplate theme named "Site Information Pages Template" and change section that says height="400"

Can this "pull" the first post from threads in certain forums? If so I'd use this instead of vbadvanced.

It does. As a matter of fact, there is a default webquery that does exactly this in the default installation. Please see webtemplate named "test2" and webquery named $WQ_last5threadcontentsfromforum2
