the resolution is an X parameter, and icon size is a gnome parameter.
for resolution, edit you /etc/X11/XF86config-4 file. everything you need 
to know is
in the file itself, and for more info refer to the man page : man xfree.

icon sizing is actually very simple with gnome. right click on an icon, 
and choose "stretch
icon" from the context menu :)
