Yes, THAT kuickshow for sure. Granted, there has been no activity for a 
long time, but "no activity" doesn't mean it is useless. I know at least 3 
people (including me) who prefer kuickshow over the applications coming 
with (k)ubuntu (e.g. gwenview).

It seems you have to compile it yourself. Make sure you have these 
packages installed:

gcc
make
binutils
libqt3-headers
kdelibs4-dev
imlib1
imlib1-dev
imlib-base

(Hopefully I didn't forget anything vital.)

Download the source code from sourceforge to your favourite download 
directory. Start konsole and cd to that download directory. Then use 
these commands:

tar xfj kuickshow-0.8.5.tar.bz2
cd kuickshow-0.8.5
./configure --prefix=/usr --with-qt-includes=/usr/include/qt3
make
sudo make install
