The icons are already using the large variant.
To enlarge the skin can be done by editing the "Scale" variable in "variables.inc" of any of the included config folders.

The number of items shown could be increased beyond 8-at-a-time (as it is now), but would require a lot of modifying of the code: FileView setting changes, plus new measures and meters.

That is not something I plan on doing
The skin can show an unlimited number of folders and files from any location, it simply limits to viewing 8 at any one time.

I'm thinking more like expanding the size to where it can show more rows and columns (using "small icons" mode). For example, like showing 8 (or maybe 9) files in a column, and a few rows (like probalby 3 or 4).

Also,is there a way to shrink the vertical size for when there isn't much in the folder (like let's say there's 3 files, so I'd want the folder to go down 3 files worth rather than 8).

Update: I figured out how to make it shorter, still trying to figure out how to make it longer.

Ok so, I figured out pretty much everything, the last thing that I'm not sure how to do is get rid of the extra space where the PageUp, pageDown, etc used to be.

Been busy with other projects.

In order to begin to help, post your modified code and explain exactly what you want to correct.

Once the code is here, someone may be able to suggest a solution.

No problem, here's the 2 files I edited (I'm using the one where I have only 3 games/shortcuts in order to not make a huge post)

Name=FolderView
Author=Eclectic Tech
Information=Stationary or Roll Down/Roll Up Windows using Fileview plugin and Containers. Four preset styles: Light, Dark, Clear (Light Text), Clear (Dark Text). Widows can be based on either a Path (default mode) which allows all explorer features, or use a Custom Title (Edit "Variables.inc" in folder). Double-click Title to open current folder. Middle-click Title to manually enter a folder path. You can navigate in the window; ".." means previous folder, arrows will step through "pages" of the folder, scrolling will step 1 folder/file at a time. Scaler can be edited in "Variables.inc" in each folder. Three folders are included. To add a new FolderView simply copy any "Folder#", paste it, rename it, and refresh Rainmeter.

To change the space between the titlebar and the first item, change the Y value of [Index1] in the smallicon.inc file; I changed it from (48*#Scaler#) to (28*#Scaler#).

You would need to change that same section in the other menu style include files, if you plan to use "text only" or "large icon" styles.

I see you changed the clamp value in the action timer slider measure for the rollup action timer to 125. I would recommend changing that clamp value to 108 for both the rollup and rolldown actions. Also change the value of ContainerH in the "variables.inc" file to equal 108 (the clamp value used in the action timer slider).

Should look like this with those changes:

Awesome, thank you! I'll definitely try that out!
