That worked. Thanks.

Before posting my question I tried the menu editor, but it just said
"ristretto %F." I suppose that means it is in my path. 

Now all I have to do is hit Firefox over the head with a 2x4 so it will
remember that I want to open PNG files with Ristretto. Using "which
ristretto" I learned that Ristretto is in /usr/bin, so when I clicked on
the PNG file and it came up with Gedit I chose Other and pointed it
to /usr/bin/ristretto, being sure to check the box for "always open
files of this type." It worked, but later on the same page I clicked on
another PNG and Firefox popped up the same window, still wanting to
open the file in Gedit.
