Palette help

After some tinkering around, trying to get some fog I got working into the overworld palette, I've come to the conclusion that everything I've been drawing on my overworld has been in the main palette, instead of palette 00, or the overworld palette. I'm cautious to edit the main palette, as it will apparently completely screw up my overworld. All my screens are set to the overworld palette, as well as my overworld DMap. How can I make my overworld screens use the palette specifically for overworlds, and is this the default, or do I have the tileset maker to blame?

I tried to copy the overworld palette to another palette slot. I switched every overworld DMap to that palette, as well as setting a screen to that palette, and nothing happened. I was still drawing with the main palette. What's wrong?

It's very different from the main, around 4 devoted to overworld and the rest filled in with the fog palette. I can confirm that they're very different.
