What is a referral?

When you encourage someone to join Bandaids. On their signup screen should be a "Refferer", and they type in your username. You earn 50 bbx for each referral. More information can be found here.

What are Reps?/What are those blue boxes under my avatar?

Reputation points. It's sort of the Bandaids rank, user feedback-wise. When someone sees a post they agree on, think is humorous or helpful, they click the [$] box on that post. Leave a comment on why you think is helpful, click "Add to Reputation" and voila! You're done. The more points you get, the more blue boxes you have, and the higher your rank/RAP (Reputation Altering Power) is, and the higher you are on the reputation chart.
