use the emulator 'fceuxdsp' to change color pallettes and for beta testing (use the PPU Viewer to find the values of the colors, then search for those values in the Hex Editor in "Rom File") yes pretty much all your left with is those hex values to deal with unless you have an editor.

Then use either Tile Molester, or Tile Layer Pro to edit the graphics, and yes you are only left with those scattered images, theres nothing that will automatically "Piece" all the sprites together for you.

when you make changes in one "save rom" to save it perminently. Once you do, you have to reload the rom in the other program, or else you'll lose what you've changed if you decide to "save rom" in the other.

this is all confusing at first, but just download these programs, play around with them, don't expect to make a game all pretty at first, just start with a simple game, make changes, and see what you've done. Just see how well you can destroy a game, then you'll be a step closer to creating a game.. A good hacker can figure things out by experimenting, and having patience.

YY-CHR is also usable if you find either of the other two not to your liking. I suggest you try all of them until you find what you like.
