gThumb is an open-source image viewer and organizer for the GNOME desktop environment released under the GNU General Public License. It was originally based on GQView, and is designed to have a clean, simple interface.

[edit] Features

gThumb permits you to browse your hard disk for images, organize and view images as catalogs, or view images as a slideshow. Folders and catalogs can be bookmarked, and comments may be added to images.

Via gPhoto it can also acquire data directly from digital cameras.

Many basic image editing features are included, such as rotation, resizing, cropping, and image enhacing filters such as color, brightness and contrast adjustment, to name but a few.

gThumb can export Web-based albums with various graphic themes. These themes can be uploaded to a Web site, providing a very simple mechanism for publishing collections of photos on the web. The default templates are stored in /usr/share/gthumb/albumthemes.

gThumb also includes many basic features essential to any image viewer such as copying, moving, deleting or duplicating images, printing, zooming, format conversion, and batch renaming.
