Fast, proper color handling, and capable of dealing with giant images.

At work we sometimes take automated microscope scans of tissue and afterwards have to stitch this together into one image. This was the only viewer (edit: on Linux!) that could smoothly handle the ultra-resolution PNGs we generated this way.

Xenmaster's Top 40 FOSS Desktop Applications for Linux

I'm a big fan of Linux and have been using it consistently as my desktop daily driver since 2012. In that time, I've used a lot of software and these are the picks I come back to consistently. I don't live in the terminal with a tiling window manager, but also don't fear the command line. There are lots of opinions and lists for terminal-centric Linux operators, hard core developers, and free software enthusiasts, but I haven't seen many for casual users just looking to do boring stuff. This is my humble list which includes practical applications, system tools to keep things running, and details on terminal specific software I use. I'm not going to list Linux distros here because no matter what I am using because nearly all of these can be found in Fedora, Debian, and Arch derived distros (which is most beginner-friendly distros).

What is Viewnior?

Its minimalistic interface provides more screenspace for your images. Among its features are:

Fullscreen & Slideshow Rotate, flip, crop, save, delete images Animation support Browse only selected images Navigation window Set image as wallpaper (only under GNOME, see INSTALL file) Simple interface Configurable mouse actions

Viewnior is inspired by big projects like Eye of Gnome, because of its usability and richness, and by GPicView, because of its lightweight design and minimal interface. So here comes Viewnior - small and light, with no compromise with the quality of its functions.
