Change icons AOKP 4.2 - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

I'm running AOKP 4.2.1 what's the easiest way to change the icons on my home screen? I know you can download icon packs but I wonder if there is somewhere to browse through a bunch and then where do you go from there as far as installing them. I know this sounds pretty dumb but I've never changed the icons before and can't find any straightforward thread about it thanks

You get icon packs from the market if you use launchers like apex, nova, etc. Otherwise IDK.

Is there an unlocked version of touchwiz?

Is there a touchwiz rom that is essentially stock but is unlocked so I can move my app drawer button and the number of rows and columns of icons? These are really the only things I want to change. Thanks in advanced community.
i remember for my gs2 there was a modded tw launcher that u could fully customize, even had themes.vit was called i believe "twiz launcher 4.5" I'm pretty sure it runs on our device. just do a forum search for tw 4.5 or similar to that and ull find it. it was very cool.

Hmm, if you can't find what your looking for, try apex launcher.

Search TweakWiz. Puts the app drawer in the middle and changes the grid layout to utilize more of the screen real estate.
Edit: I was feeling nice, so I searched for you, as I remembered it being linked in the Wicked ROM thread. Here's the link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=30471519
Just a side note about searching, for those who use the app, you can open any thread in the browser using the menu or tapping a post, and the search feature once in the browser view works great. You can search the thread itself, or "breadcrumbs" at the top of the page to go back and search a specific forum(like Q&A, Development etc). I know the app's search feature isn't very good, so just thought I'd share.

[APP][4.0+] Buzz Launcher

Anyone try out the Buzz launcher yet? Pretty damn cool! Some themes need some tweaking because they're for smaller screen size, but the ability to share layouts is awesome!!

I just heard about Buzz Launcher yesterday. It's pretty cool for finding and trying new homescreens on your device. I download and tried 5-6 yesterday. I don't like some of how the launcher operates though. I still prefer Nova, but that's personal preference. Does anyone know where it downloads the files to when you download and install a new homescreen? I want to use some of the icons from one homescreen with some of the icons from a different homescreen, but I can't figure out where it saves the files. I thought it was saving them on my sdcard, but I can't find them. If anyone knows the file location of the saved homescreens let me know. Thanks!

Theme help

Can anyone tell me what theme this is or where I can find something similar? I've looked at so many launchers and themes and just can't find anything as nice and simple

Post help/questions in the Q/A, Help section. Not here.
From the screen shot I believe this theme is made by this application called
"Minimalistic Text"
Download from the given link below-
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.devmil.minimaltext&hl=en
Thanks I got the app, looks good so far, but how about the homepage icons, they don't have icons just text. It looks great I want something like that.

Those are not just text, Those are icons.
you can make this type of icons with this application. Then with a icon changer or launcher like Nova/Apex you can change stock icons with these customized text base icons.
It was a different app by the same people called simple text but you got me on the right track, thanks a bunch my phone looks great

Icons are not rearranged, because icons are not something universal in android, they're part of launcher. So when you install new launcher you must do your icons again... (even though I'm not sure if you're talnikg about icons in launcher screens or icons in "all programs" drawer...)
Can't really say which is the best laucher as that is a matter of opinion. I think most people will agree that nova has the most customisable options

Icons on touchwiz

I would like to has anybody found a way to to change or add icon packs while remaining on stock touchwiz launcher now I'm rooted at this time but I would like to keep touchwiz launcher but change how my icons look any help would be helpful

It's very simple actually to change apps and system icons if you are rooted and running custom recovery. That's how all available themes works. Launcher doesn't matter.
Get some theme, take a look at the zip folder/file structure inside and you'll see how easy is to replace any kind of apk resources making your custom icon pack.
Try anycut or bettercut and or desktop visualizer.
