    Unless it is an animated GIF, GIMP should open and edit it just fine. No need to buy Photoshop...most of the people who one photoshop could do everything they do using gimp.

    Have you installed any picture viewer? I use Windows picture and fax viewer. It's ok for me to view gif or animated gif.
