For the longest time I used gthumb for picture viewer.  I even installed

like in F24 (though I could try the liveCD and see...).

Anyway, Ristretto in Xfce is really not adequate, so I am asking really
nicely, please for recommendations.
I guess it depends on what exactly you mean by "adequate" but I use gpicview. My guess is that it is perhaps even less than adequate for you, but it gets the jobs done for me.

Valid point. I 'grew up' with gthumb with all those years of using gnome until I bailed with F21 for Xfce. The switch to Xfce was driven by my work with the Fedroa-arm builds and on armv7 chips, you really don't want to run gnome. Those early arm builds all had Xfce and I liked it. So for a while I still used gthumb, but came to dislike it with F22.

So what do I want a picture viewer to provide:

A directory tree view so I can go through all of my picture directories easily. A thumbprint view so I can scan down easily for the pictures I want to see/show.
A full screen pic viewer that offers editing and printing.
Slideshow function and support animated gifs (I encountered one viewer somewhere that did not)

Not a big list. gthumb on F21 was just right, but with F22 became too feature rich (but was really good for printing).
