[edit] Features

gThumb permits you to browse your harddisk 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.

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

gThumb permits exporting web based albums with various graphic themes. These themes can be uploaded to a website, providing a very simple mechanism for publishing collections of photos on the web.

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.
