Fotoxx -- the Greatest Little Linux Photo Editor You've Never Heard Of

"F-spot, shotwell, solang -- some distros are arguing about what should be the default "simpler than GIMP" image editor. But there's one that never seems to get mentioned and deserves a look: fotoxx

"Despite a name that sounds like a wrinkle treatment, this little image editor is lightweight and doesn't have many dependencies -- great for a netbook or other modest machine. And it's jam-packed with great features. If it's not already packaged for your distro, you can get it at kornelix.squarespace.com/fotoxx.

"Run fotoxx on an initial image:
