Atari tech heads: need help on video repair

So a decade or so ago my friend and I botched an s-video mod for the 2600, and knocked video out on the thing. Recently we have revisited it, cleaning up solder points around the TIA and those neighboring resistors, and have gotten an image back, but the colors are off - specifically, blue colors appear green. Anyone know what precisely we may need to look at? Attached is a picture of what I'm talking about.

Update: I adjusted the colors on the color wheel, which helped with that issue. I'm still noticing more static on screen than there should be, and the light blue ghost in Ms. Pac-Man has some serious color bleed going on against a black background during the demo. Any ideas? I'm theorizing there's still a short somewhere. Should note, it's a four switch woody, board rev. 12. So close to having it all working properly after close to two decades, don't want to give up yet!
