    to rotate, i use convert(1):

    convert -rotate $degreesRight $filename $newfilename

    for cropping, if they're bigger than your screen, i have to go with
    the GIMP. xv is great if they're small, but if the resolution is
    actually bigger than your screen's resolution, and you open it up,
    crop (or rotate, or whatever), and save, you'll be sizing down the
    resolution to that of your screen.

    (this bit me in the ass for a month or so after i initially got my
    digital camera before i figured out what was going on. unfortunately,
    it took me getting a photo accepted into a contest, and then being
    told it was too lo-res to print, for this to come to light!)
