Any idea if it's at all possible to change the current textures and character sprites into 8bit sets?

Where would I start? :x
I have no idea how I could change the textures and sprites.

Thanks in advance.

Edit: Wow, I guess I wasn't looking hard enough.. Found the location of all the sprites. =]

Perhaps 16-bit would be easier if you have no clue where to start.

Are there any specific guidelines on changing the sprites?  Specific hotbox zones to worry about, ect?

Cuz if not, I've got some Megaman Sprites that I'm gonna replace some characters with...

We set the hitboxes in game. If you want to change the sprites and have accurate hitboxes, you'll have to keep the sprite to within the outermost dimensions of whatever character you are changing.
