To the best of my knowledge, Pear Launcher can do everything you're asking for. I haven't used nova in a while, but from what I recall of it, the free version of pear launcher is far more feature rich than nova.
Thanks! I downloaded it and it can change icons to images and swipes work fine. I just need to figure out how to do folders. It only says "folders in app drawer" in the description, I need folders to open with a tap or swipe on a home screen icon. I still have a copy of Folder Organizer although it's been abandoned for years. I could get them to work with that if nothing else.
Hey, dunno if you figured it out yet, but creating folders is done in the pear launcher settings (I get to the settings by a "pear actions" widget set to pear settings). From there, it's app drawer > folders > then you can make new folders and add stuff to them.
