The typical Christian views range from: "God is incorporeal", "he is everywhere", "he lives in a different dimension", "he's omnipresent/omniscient"
to: "He made us humans in his own image", "Jesus sits on the right hand of the Lord", "God feels/sees/thinks", etc
So what is it then? Does God have body parts or not? If so, when you say "he's everywhere", are his feet and arms in the same place at the same time? Or in different places?

He's not everywhere. The Bible describes him as having a dwelling place. His body is spirit, meaning we can't see it. We have no idea what he looks like. When described as having arms, fingers, we don't know if it's literal...we can't see him. Maybe it could give us a MENTAL picture of him when reading the accounts.
The comment made in his image means more than physical...God isn't physical. Perhaps it could include mental capacity, the ability to reason, an intelligent creature. He said that in regard to humans, not animals.

God is omnipresent. If you didn't think about it so hard, or you actually read the Bible, you would know that God is everywhere all the time... just because he is God.

God is an eternal spirit, he exists without the need of anyting outside himself. God did not have a physical body, until he dwelt in the physical body of Jesus Christ.

No He does not have a body because He is a Spirit. When He made us in His image, it was the image of His character, not His body.
John 4:24 "God is spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth."

I think the "in his image" part means our "spiritual side", not physical.
But the idea of God having a foot sticking out of his head does create a odd image.....

Yes he does have some "form"...
read exodus 33
moses was allowed to see this...
Exo 33:23 And I will take away mine hand, and thou shalt see my back parts: but my face shall not be seen.

God has a body of flesh and bone. Meaning he has a body just like us, only it is not mortal, thus the bone part (no blood). It is the same body as us, only perfect.

Yes, God has all those parts. Humans are made in his image.
He is not everywhere, he is in one place.
