Eye of GNOME
The Eye of GNOME image viewer is the official image viewer for the GNOME Desktop environment. With it, you can view single image files, as well as large image collections.
Together with Coherence you can use it to access images served by DLNA/UPnP MediaServers on your network.
You will need atm a recent version of EOG - tested here against 2.25.3 aka svn trunk.

EOG accessing a local MediaServer:
And LOL-Cats through Coherence:
The plugin uses DBus to communicate with a Coherence instance.
You need to have this service file in /usr/share/dbus-1/services to have a Coherence ControlPoint instance started automatically by the DBus daemon,
[D-BUS Service] Name=org.Coherence Exec=/usr/bin/coherence -o use_dbus:yes -o controlpoint:yes
or start Coherence yourself with '/usr/bin/coherence -o use_dbus:yes -o controlpoint:yes'. Alternatively you can supply these options in the configuration file.
For a quick test try '/usr/bin/coherence -o use_dbus:yes -o controlpoint:yes --plugin=backend:FlickrStore --plugin=backend:LolcatsStore', starting Coherence with two MediaServers connected to Flickr and the LOLCats site.
Installation
The content of the directory EOG Plugin has to be copied to ~/.gnome2/eog/plugins/.
Within EOG the plugin needs to be enabled and will be available after that in the sidebar.
