I downloaded and installed FreeBSD 5.3 on a computer. I go past the login and password stage. Can I go to a full graphics mode? How?

Install a graphical user interface (GUI). FreeBSD is great in that it gives you a *choice* (something they don't believe in the Pacific NW, apparently) of many different GUI environments, and you can actually do a lot of work without one (try that in "command.com" on a stock installation).
As Kris stated, the Handbook is your friend. I think my build of the Handbook is fairly recent; in it the chapter on windowing systems is Chapter 5, but it states that knowledge of Chapter 4 is a pre-requisite.
Good luck and welcome to FreeBSD, and "tools, not policy!" Feel free to write back with your questions about GUI configuration (there might be some....)
