   a) Go launcher Ex Ubuntu HD Theme
   b)Go Ubuntu Launcher EX Theme:You can have either of these themes but i am using th GO ubuntu theme.These will bring you the Ubuntu style icons and wallpapers.

Ans.  Swipe the sidebar out and long touch for a moment it will show option Sort and Delete.You can then select the sort option and move the apps up and down in the list by dragging them by holding the such       icon.
