Shorter more efficient F2L algs for these?

Are there shorter more efficient algs for these 2 F2L algs?

A weird solution for you.

Are there any algs that will switch 1 sticker from 1 side of the cube to another?

I'm planning on making some letters with my cubes (probably 3x3-6x6) and I was wondering if there were any commutators or something that would switch some center pieces and edge pieces. It's only going to be from 1 side so it doesn't really matter if the other sides are scrambled
I can figure out 3x3 easily enough. just can't figure out 4x4-6x6.

don't want to take anything apart or take off/put on any stickers.

To switch some centers on 4x4-6x6

Move the slice up to the desired one you want to switch

XXOX
XXXX
XXXX
XXXX

On 6x6 u want to switch the O. So move the O to this position

XXXX
OXXX
XXXX
XXXX

Move that up where it is hidden. More Os will appear

OXXX
OXXX
OXXX
OXXX

Move it to this position

OO0O
XXXX
XXXX
XXXX

Move the original O (0) back down

it will be like this

OOXO
XXXX
XXXX
XXXX

Then you can move it back to this posiition

OXXX
XXXX
OXXX
OXXX

Move that slice down and it will turn out to be

XXXX
OXXX
XXXX
XXXX

Then do a U and it will be

XXOX
XXXX
XXXX
XXXX

Perform these SS F2L Algs: Which alg has the most potential for speed?

SS alg 26:

1)U R U' R' d' L' U L
2)U R U' R' F R' F' R
3)U (R U' R') U' (F' U F)
4)U R U' R' y U' L' U L(Not SS & Rotation, but 2 fast triggers)

i flip between all of them, I'm guessing that all are sub 1 able but in experienced hands which is the fastest?
Any non SS algs that are faster???

I prefer 4. When doing the case with BR slot try this: R U R U R U' R' U' R'

I need a quick alg for F2L 26 on the Speedsolving Wiki F2L page.
I don't really like the use of the left hand. There are some good ones, but they aren't really fast.
