NCSA also has excellent, free visualization software. I have used
their Mac products (which have been commercialized and improved by the
company Spyglass (217)-355-6000).  I have been told their X versions
do fine also. The documentation is good.  NCSA Image is a bit leaner
than NIH Image, but is well worth having.   For for editing and
annotating, see Layout (or Transform from Spyglass).  These
products can be downloaded via anonymous FTP from ftp.ncsa.uiuc.edu.
For UNIX, see /UNIX/XImage and /UNIX/XDataSlice.  Source is available.
