Same place you find "graphics creators" for TTDPatch.

GRFCodec, Notepad (or vi/emacs/ed, if you're on that OS), and your favourite indexed-PCX-capable image editor.

Purno and Pikka's tutorials are the place to start:

Also, the TTDPatch wiki tutorial:

Those are the tools that you need.

And in his signature is the link where to find the first too (assuming you have a computer with something notepad-ish and a PCX image editor):

Seriously,
you should invest at least A MINUTE on some own thinking. This thread starts off as the previous one from you I remember. Those are not good memories.

You can use also GRFMaker, that is downloadable from internet if you search it in Google... And you can find tutorials too, if you search for "GRF Tutorial".
