Here is an overview of gwenview in KDE 4.1. Video at the end of this post.
When you start gwenview, your're welcomed by the start page. On the left you have the list of KDE's places. It's the same list as in dolphin or the file selection dialog. On the right, the last folders you've visited.
When entering a folder, you're in browsing mode. It looks like a file manager. But it's not 
You can switch to view mode, in the view menu. In this mode you have only one image displayed. There is a thumbnail bar available at the bottom to ease browsing images in the current folder while being in view mode.
The fullscreen mode has also improved a lot in KDE4.1 : you now have a thumbnail bar at the top of the screen. It's as useful as beautiful : the screeshot speaks by itself.
You can change what information is shown is the full screen mode thumbnail bar, change slide show interval, and top bar height. All black and slick !
And there's a few settings in there. I didn't have to change anything, Changing the mouse wheel behaviour can be useful, as well as the option to enlarge smaller images. Both default settings makes sense and I don't think lots of people with change them.
It's pleasing to use gwenview. No wonder it's now the default image viewer in KDE4.
