Eye of GNOME and gThumb are among the most popular picture viewers for Linux, partly because they have been included with popular distributions like Ubuntu.

ImageMagick's display can not only display images, but also allows you to perform (many) certain ImageMagick operations upon the image being viewed.

feh is light, fast, and powerful.

feh is an X11 image viewer aimed mostly at console users. Unlike most other viewers, it does not have a fancy GUI, but simply displays images. It is controlled via commandline arguments and configurable key/mouse actions.

  • I just tried it, I am sorry but that is one of the worst I have ever tried. A "viewer" that doesn't even scale the image to the window size by default (without giving arguments) is a no go..
