I concur with Julia that this is a simple effective way to achieve the 
goal, with one minor change:
Right click on a file only gives you the "Open With" option if it 
doesn't already have an asscociation. If that file type is associated 
with a different graphics viewer, you will need to highlight the file, 
then Shift & Right Click.

Irfanview could be a good option - it's the right price, and it has very 
nice association options during install - if the associations get messed 
up later, it will happily re-assign them. Depends on whether or not you 
want *another* graphics viewer.
