From what ive read, in the bitcoin qt client some people think the fee setting(in settings) is a 'additional fee' and others think its 'the fee'. does anyone know from personal experience which is true?

Additional fee.
ugh... thats what the wiki sounded like :/
So all these free sites that send tiny amounts of BTC Ex .00,002,080 are like what, largely unspendable?

Hey now, nothing is free
Is there any client thats trusted, shows fees, lets you set what addresses to take money from and allows fees to be set explicitly?

Unfortunately it's complicated: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Transaction_fees
And the standard client doesn't do a good job of showing the fees. I suggest just setting a small fee, sending it, and waiting for it to confirm. Unless it's an unreasonably large transaction it should go through.

Is there a calculator that can figure out the fees involved in doing this? dont want to clean up my pennies and find out i just spent 1$ to move 50 cents 
You can spend them. You can take a whole bunch of small inputs and send them to one output. Your wallet will do this automatically. It's like gathering a few hundred pennies and using them to buy milk.

The former. A transaction's inputs are the outputs of previous transaction(s), not the balance of an address.
this has been bugging me and i havnt seen it said explicitly, so let me ask...
As an example.
If someone sends 500 different transactions in different blocks, to address A. i then send the entire sum that was sent to address A to address B. Would the transaction from address A to B include the 500 mentioned transactions/outputs that make up address A's funds, or would it only include address A?
I hope that is a simple enough and straightforward enough question.
