Theme development

I'm trying a bunch of time now to get a seperate teaser field and additional other fields in my nodes, that I can theme as I want. But with every way to solve my problem y encountered another one. I'm using CCK but I couldn't figure out how to make a separate teaser field with it. So I'm using the excerpt module which works fine. But: When ich add more fields to my node, they always show up in the teaser and/or the body when I work on the theming (either with the contemplate module or with the node-.tpl.php files).

Is it possible to somehow edit the CSS files within Drupal 5? So you don't have to use FTP/etc?

please can someone tell me if Multiflex-3 which I found at http://1-2-3-4.info/webtemplates/multiflex3/ is a Drupal theme and can be just dropped into the theme manager or if it is not. If it is not is there one very similar that is. I am starting my first site in Drupal and would like to use this theme or at least very close to it. Thanks for your help in advance.
