How do you make is so that you have a different choice background image on idle and on hover?

Here's for idle:
style.menu_choice_button.background = Frame("choice.png", 0, 0)

What's for on hover?

Answer to the third question:

The "who" label holds name. It is written in bold.
Ren'Py is bad with bold or italic text, so you'll want to use the config.font_replacement_map thing. Place it in options.rpy. You'll need a proper bold version of the font to replace the ugly look with it. Don't forget, you should replace the font you're using for the style your say window uses (the default one, if you didn't change the style manually).

For example:

Code:

config.font_replacement_map["Consola.ttf", True, False] = ("ConsolaB.ttf", False, False)

If you want to use the font that you don't have in your game folder, you'll need to know its disk name, which can only be seen by copying the Fonts folder and watching the contents. It's always different from the font name, which you see in Word or etc.

The second question - yes, there is a way. I think there were some words like "shadows" or "outlines".
Ah, here it is: http://lemmasoft.renai.us/forums/viewtopic.php?f=51&t=9233.

1. Is there a way to have a different position of the Name and text?

Code:

$ n = Character(None, window_background = Frame("alternativePicture.png", 6, 6))

where alternativePicture.png is the image which don't have the who design.

There's no way to use innershadows though. What you can do is make a SFont with innerfont (and maybe drop-shadow already applied) and then use them.
http://www.renpy.org/wiki/renpy/doc/reference/Text
Scroll to the very bottom (I never did understand why people don't use SFont; they have so much capabilities)

What Levrex said.
But you can also use this

Code:

style.say_label.bold = False

It will simply un-bold the speaker name for every font you may use.

Thank you very much! This was exactly what I was hoping for. :')
