For the life of me, I can't figure out how to get an icon on my mac's desktop that says "imac" and goes to the equivalent of my computer on a desktop.

Why do you mean? To have a link to one of your folders, right click the folder (in finders main window, not the 'places' sidebar.) and click create alias. Rename the alias to iMac and set the icon as an iMac (search around MacThemes or something) then drag it to desktop. to remove the alias icon, search google for 'remove alias arrow OS X', the 10.4 mac hints one works on 10.5

to get your hard drives on and stuff, go to finder >> preferences and click all that apply.
