Should there be an easier way to make custom Mario GFX?

The Mario GFX file, (GFX32?) it's a mess. Halfs of Mario are located everywhere, so you don't have an easy way to see what it will look like.
Shouldn't there be a tool that makes it easier? why hasn't anyone made one before? Has anyone made one before? If so, oof.
I have an idea for one, one where you edit not the actual GFX file, and you edit something else that's more organized. And at the end, it re-arranges it into the original GFX format?
TLDR: Is there an easier way to edit Mario GFX than YY-Chr?
Edit: Wrong Forum!!!!
Moved to SMW Hacking help. Yeah, SMW's Mario graphics are somewhat of a mess. There exists a tool which rearranges GFX32 into an easier editable format but that was only released in one of the C3s (I do know that it was JackTheSpades who created this tool, though).
There is tool that lets you re-arrange all tiles any way you want, so you can put custom graphics in gfx32 in any way you want.

But there is even better option, the 32x32 player patch, it does the organizing for you and is less restricted as you have more space to work with.
