My 5 Gallon brew kit calls for 2-3 gallons of water to boil. I have a 4 gallon pot. Does it effect the taste of the beer if I do 2 rather than 3 gallons of wort?

I have just kept my old bottles to use can I also reuse the caps or do I need to get new bottle caps?
So tonight I moved my brew from the primary Fermenter to the secondary. Everything looked great smelled amazing. I was being overly concerned about sanitation so I put some Star San in the carboy and swashed it around. I know everyone says you don't need to rinse that sanitizer so I did not. Did I screw anything up by doing that? Their was a lot of bubbles in the carboy when I started to fill it.

What kind of beer are you doing for your first beer? I just did my first last month. It was a brown ale from extract and grains. I ended up pretty pleased with how it turned out. I am starting an English special bitter tomorrow from extract and crystal malt. I too was really worried about how my first batch would turn out and kept constantly thinking I had messed it up.
