I believe that when it says the checksum failed, it just means that the rom has been modified.

Check if your ROM is clean using the clean ROM verifier (download link). If it isn't clean, get a new rom. Don't ask for one here, though.

Just use ctrl+f.
If that can't find it, it doesn't exist.

One problem I have encountered is the limited amount of exit and warp tiles allowed on the overworld.
Is it in any way possible to increase the amount of exit or warp tiles that can be put on the overworld?

To add to the random amount of non-answered questions, I have a question with block interaction with mario at high speeds. When toying around with boost custom blocks, I find that occasionally mario dies when slamming into a wall or note block. Is there any way to remedy this?
Also, is there a trick to adjusting sprites to act a certain way like in automatic mario levels? It seems that they tend to shift a frame left or right depending on how much is on the screen (objects, not sprites), meaning I must manually readjust them, and by proxy most of the level. I figured there was something to explain this but I couldn't find it. I also figure there isn't any, but it's worth an ask.

You will not be infringing copyright. However, you cannot simply take a Youtube video and put it in your hack. You must find a MIDI file, convert it to MML format using tinymm, put the MML in SMW's format, and then convert it to txt. Only then can you put it in your hack.

Are you sure it is clean? Use this to check. If it is clean, and it still doesn't work, try finding a ROM from a different site.

thanks for the advice, it worked! 
and there is nothing near the pipe because, one, I cut off the other 4 screens I made so far because I didn't want to give anything away yet. Two, It was temporarily placed there for the pic, I already moved it xD

I know I can't take a video, I can probably find the MIDI somwhere.

1) Use BTSD. It is better, and using both on the same ROM screws things up.
2) BTSD Tutorial.

Forgive me if this is something noob-ish, but I really can't seem to fix it on my own.
Basically, I made a tile, putted it in the editor but...
It does not show. It IS there but the graphics refuse to show up for some reason...
Here are some pictures.



So yeah, how can I make it appear? :/
