it to try, but I will get it sometime today.
Comments:
...The "xv" program from ftp://ftp.cis.upenn.edu/pub/xv is great...
...XV 3.10 at ftp://ftp.cis.upenn.edu:/pub/xv/xv* is the best for this.
...lets you view jpg, gif, xwd, tiff and a load of other formats,
...ftp://ftp.cis.upenn.edu/pub/xv/xv-3.10a.tar.gz
Use xv! With it's VANTASTIC Visual Schnauzer to look at directories,
you can look at them as thumb-print sized listings! perfikto for
looking through those big piles of gif & jpegs.
John Bradley wrote a very nice program, and since he is such a great guy,
he even tells you how to update yourself within his program.
ftp on ftp.cis.upenn.edu
For ONLY $40 you get a manual and a FREE registered copy!
(That's cheaper than most stores will sell just the manual!)
If you want 3.5 tar'd copy, then send $15 for the media to

An alternative:
I would recommend ImageMagick. It's a bit of work to compile, as support
for various graphic file formats is not builtin but rather other freely
available graphic libraries are used. But once you have it up-and-running
you'll be V glad you put in the effort. Here's an excerpt from the
ImageMagick README:

Another suggestion is xv which is also availble on the net.
