I got it installed with Winetricks.
Now how do I make it the default to open all images?
No terminal voodoo please.

Something like:
Right Click the image
[Open With]...choose your weapon

Above for single images ....I'm looking up the other thing.

Cross posting see if this helps. You get more applications going through [Properties]
Right Click Image of a type (png for instance)
Click Properties
Check Permissions (I have Owner and Group set up Read and Write)
Select Default for png.
Above from Zorin CF-53
FWIW I use Mirage for PNG, jpg.
There is another way, when I find it. This is the quick and dirty method.....generally done once for each file type.

Irfanview does all images. Also it can edit and resize.
GIMP is loaded on Zorin and I do not like it at all.
I can try your suggestion tomorrow when I fire up the 53 again.

For setting default applications.
All Settings (Click upper right of screen and gear)
Details
Default Applications
I was pretty sure Mirage does all images just wanted to check before inserting foot.

Mirage does not look as powerful as Irfanview, but it does look easier than GIMP.

The two lists are linked. Doing the first option adds your application to the system list.
Personally I use the quick and dirty as it requires less thinking and I can see what is happening.
This one:
Right Click Image of a type (png for instance)
Click Properties
Check Permissions (I have Owner and Group set up Read and Write)
Select Default for png. (Mirage)
All I care about is a quick resize or crop hence Mirage.

Most of the time that is all I need for editing. But once in a while I add some text.
I suppose I could just switch to a Windows machine for the more powerful and complicated tasks.
