So you can take GPL code, change it a little and make it copyrighted (non-GPL)?
It is already copyrighted, whether GPL or not. If you own the copyright, you can distribute a new version which is under a different license, and therefore is not GPL.
If you don't own the copyright, any version you distribute must be GPL.
What about the parts of the code already published under GPL?
Those are already GPL.
Please take the time to read the GPL, and FSF's FAQ on licensing.
