Newbie question - Change existing frames

Hi guys,

I saw several videos and read a few tutorials on how to write addons. I manage to build a simple one to work as a keybind "trainer", where it reads my actions bars and asks for a random keybind to be pressed, showing the skill/macro icon and associated key, if the player press the correct one, it asks for another one. It's ugly and bad implemented, but i'm happy that I was able to make it work.

Now, I want to learn how to edit my UI, without using support libs like ACE3 ou LibStub, to remove unecessary textures, change colors of healthbars and unitframes icons and stuff like that. I'm super lost on that, I used /fstack to check the frame names, but i have no clue on how to change the icon of PlayerFrame for example. Does people, who create their own UI, hide all Blizzard frames and create new ones or is it possible to edit Blizzard's default frames?

Sorry about my english and thank you all for the info you share here!
