You can just change the regsitry setting for the jpegimage, gifimage etc to point to PIMG.exe

for example:
HKCR \ gifimage \ Shell \ Open \ Command \ Default
Changes from
"picselifv.exe" "%1"
to
\Windows\PIMG.exe "%1"

On my SGH-i600, the path of string has a bit difference.

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\bmpimage\Shell\Open\Command

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\gifimage\Shell\Open\Command

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\jpgimage\Shell\Open\Command


Change above string value from "picselifv.exe" "%1" to  "pimg.exe" "%1"

Instead of using pimg.exe ( Pictures & Video ) , I think we can also try to use Contents Manager.exe to open the image files.

yes samsung's contents manager it's better than microsoft's picture reader  :(
works great
i cannot understand why samsung had put picsel reader in rom.
it's the slowest and worst viewer i've ever seen, and it auto unloads automatically on exit reloading all the time (that is slow)

even if picsel is asking samsung 0.02 euro of royalties for every i600 sold, it's certainly not worth the price!

edit: shall we edit also DRMOpen key?

So ...if I want to "unninstall" or do something not to load automatically all the time you have business with a picture ???
