When it comes to image viewers, one app is not always hands-down better than others. It is rare to find an image viewing tool that has every feature stockpiled on your wish list. So having a collection of go-to viewing tools to meet a variety of graphics needs is a better strategy. That said, the Geeqie Image Viewer goes a long way in keeping that set of viewing tools to a minimum.

Another day, another command line/Console based application. Just to refresh your memory, last time we told you about a Linux framebuffer Image viewer, Fbi, that lets you view images without a X server.

Photo is not the most sophisticated image viewer out there, but it offers a perfect blend of simplicity and flexibility that makes it a handy utility, indeed.

Linux Console is not all about a black background with huge white, grey or green fonts. While working solely on console for a week I learned a lot about console based softwares. Remember the console based IM, Finch.

In my entomological work I often need to compare two images of bugs side-by-side.

Comparisons are surprisingly hard to do with either of the image viewers I normally use, namely Eye of Gnome and Ristretto. First I open two instances of the viewer and adjust their window sizes and positions for easy side-by-side comparison.

Hi everyone,

I'm looking for a way I can view .CR2 raw photos without opening GIMP. It seams overkill to open a full-featured editing program just to view a photo. I'm looking for a program that will allow me to quickly view the photo and maybe cycle through them using the directional keys...

Browser based photo gallery 22 weeks 1 day ago

Who uses some sort of browser based photo gallery for their personal photo collection? What do you use?

I've tried Gallery2, Gallery3 and ZenPhoto. I also considered Jalbum and several other offerings but finally settled on PhotoFloat.

This is a rather baffling problem. Running Fedora 16 LXDE spin on my netbook. I removed the default (gpicview?) image viewer because I preferred Shotwell. Now my problem is that I cannot find a way to set Shotwell Viewer as the default image viewing application. For PNG's it automatically opens the viewer, but JPG's open the Shotwell photo manager.

NeonView is a minimalist, lightweight image viewer written in C and GTK, completely free and open-source, created by TuxArena. Since it was recently launched, NeonView includes only a handful of features, but this is the base for development of new features and functionality.
