Another alternative is to write your own pixbuf cell renderer and paint
it however you want. Have a look at EOG's source code (based on GNOME
Control Center code):

http://svn.gnome.org/svn/eog/trunk/src/eog-pixbuf-cell-renderer.c
http://svn.gnome.org/svn/eog/trunk/src/eog-pixbuf-cell-renderer.h

It's quite simple stuff.
