1. You can use HLDSUpdateTool from http://www.steampowered.com to do the downloading portion and hosting as well. Go to get steam now and on the right bottom you will see a link for it. It comes with detailed instructions on how to install!

2. To join your own server, you need to be on another computer. You will find it in your LAN servers tab. Sometimes doing this causes issues though. You might have to use a different port, like 27016. Most of the time you won't need to though.

3. Add commands? You need to be more specific. Do you mean AdminMod? AMXX Mod? ManiMod? Or do you mean how can you control your server from ingame?

Does your MSN/AIM/YIM/ICQ or any other program work when your PC is off?

you leave the server running. Now if your server crashes a lot or you want it to reboot after crashes. You want aprogram called Server Doc. You can download it here. http://www.serverdoc.com/

Add commands to add pictures? You need to be more specific. As for the server not responding. it is a steam issue. tons of people have it. If you are behind a router and you invite him, chance are steam is inviting him with the internal ip which will not work. You need to give him the external ip.

The problem is where to start. There are several different types of server out there. Listen, Dedicated and SRCDS.
SRCDS is the only one that will work when "your" PC is off because it generally doesn't run on your PC, it runs on a server in a datacentre somewhere or, assuming you dont live in the UK, on a high speed connection to your house.
Now. If you want to run SRCDS follow Xtreme's instructions on how to download SRCDS and your already on your way.
As for mods and things like that, thats what these forums are for. Search around for people with similar posts that may answer your questions.
Be warned tho. You arent very specific in what you are asking people to help with. I agree with Xtreme when he says "add pictures?". People cant help you unless they know what they need to be answering.
Good luck.

You can add messages through mani ads
You can add pictures through mani decals
You can NOT change your IP, it's static for a region
I don't know why the server lags, if you enable net_graph 3 in console you can see whats wrong
