gwenview seems to have the best zooming algorithm, I get the impression that 
when you zoom in gwenview you get a better quality result than with other 
viewers.

gthumb is also good

pixie/pixieplus used to be good, but I can't find it now, it seems to have 
died. Pity

RoxFiler, nautilus, xffm and just about every other file manager also have 
image viewing/thumbnailing built in
