Modify the event submission layout

Like a lot of end users of Easy Social, they are expecting an interface as simple as Facebook. Terms like "Permalink" and "Avatar" confuse older users, so they aren't using the extension, which is unfortunate. You are coders, this isn't something that probably even occurs to you. It didn't occur to me until I got a frustrated email from my client.

1) How do remove the Permalink field from the events submission?
2) How do I change "Avatar" to "Image" in the events submission? I know it's a language override but which file?
3) Is there any way to display events in a monthly calendar format?

Thanks guys!
