I use a lot of different programs. I do so specifically *because* for
simple purposes, there are a programs that are very simple. For the
purposes you're describing, I use xv and mirage, but probably either one
will be fine.

I've been using xv a very long time, but its user interface is a bit
old-fashioned. However, it is remarkably capable for a very simple
program. Mirage is quite instinctive for a modern GUI user, and if its
capabilities are enough, I suspect it will work well for most people
these days. There are *many* other utilities that look to be capable in
much the same ways, but I haven't tried them.

Be well.
