You can select (but not open) an existing resource, then Get Info from the
file menu.  This brings up a dialog box that allows you to renumber the
resource, as well as mark the purgable, etc. properties.  A get info on a
file allows similar setting of creator, type, and finder flags.

>2.  How can one create a PICT resource (graphically would be nice

MacDraw is one way.  The Save As dialog box allows the setting of the file
format, of which PICT is an option.  You then are creating a file with a PICT
resource in it.
