You're likely not working within the Palette. There are programs out here, and links scattered about the forums, that will let you edit the palettes of your image files.

A palette, in this case, is a certain number of colors - I believe it's sixteen - that are used in a specific image. So "paletted" images will only ever use sixteen different colors. On the sprite files we use, I think we have sixteen possible palettes per image. Changing between the palettes changes the colors - for example, you can change between a first and second palette to change all blue into red, or what have you, and if you copy colors like tan for skin, that one stays the same...
The last eight palettes are the ones the game uses for the portrait (it does NOT share the sprite palette!), so if you want to truly know what the portrait looks like, you have to open the image in a program that lets you see palettes, pick the ninth palette, and edit the portrait with the ninth palette in use.

Otherwise, you don't know what the portrait colors will change into. Green could change into red, while blue also changes into red.
