Image Viewer with drag and drop


Does any one know of an image viewer that supports drag and drop of images?

Some editing capabilities would be nice as well. The only Linux application that I can find that supports drag and drop is "The Gimp".

Kuickshow, comes with Kde. There is no editing of the image in Kuickshow.
Gwenview, a viewer with a directory tree. No editing.

xnview is my favourite for quick finding, viewing and basic editing.
It has its own file browser, then a double click with open the image for basic adjustments. Also has batch rename and batch conversions. Lighr and fast.

I've tried all of those and none seem to support drag and drop.

Okay I've tried Eye of Gnome, gpaint, and kolourpaint with out any success.

Eye of Gnome is a nice clean viewer though.

What are you dragging out of? A file manager?
E.g. I can drag and drop out of Konqueror (file manager mode) onto Kuickshow.

I'm dragging an image from Firefox. You can drop that on The Gimp and it opens a new window.

I guess I should have stated what I'm looking to do more clearly. I'm dragging a link to image to the application. Xnview supports this feature in Windows but not Linux. Go figure.
