I’m confused. My daughter did something on my iMac and now there’s a green dot next to some of my file names. What does it mean?

The icons on my mom’s Mac are tiny. Is there some way to make the icons and associated text bigger so she can work with the system more easily?
On my new MacBook Pro (OS 10.8.5) I can set the background color of my Finder windows (as I have been able to do for years with previous OSs.) However, if I then “clean up” or “arrange by” any of the parameters (name, kind, date, size, etc.), the window background color goes to white and cannot be brought back to the color I want (the Background section of the command-J window becomes non-functional. The only way I can go back to the color I desire is to transfer the contents of the finder window to another window, delete the contents of the original window, change the color of the now-empty window and then copy the original contents back to the original window. However, if I later want to arrange or sort/clean up the contents (as often happens), the window background goes to white again and I have to go through the entire process all over again. Is there a way to stop this unwanted change of color? (It happens even when I designate the desired configuration as “Default.”)
