Roger’s Projector was the main multi-format supporting image viewer (there was an earlier one for DECB as well, but didn’t support near as many formats). VIEW  by Tim Kientzle was the equivalent for OS-9. 
Mike’s original GIFOS9 that I mentioned earlier actually came out in 1987, the same year the GIF spec itself was released, written in C (which made porting it much faster). I think this is why DECB based ones didn’t come out until at least a year later (maybe 2? Can’t remember).
