GIMP (listed under Applications → Graphics) is an image editor that allows as much or as little manipulation of the images as you choose. It can be used to construct images or modify photos and images.

For your listening pleasure, give Exaile Music Player a spin. It is capable of playing all your music, from mp3 to CD to live radio on the internet.

If you need to burn a CD or DVD, check out Brasero. It is very easy to use and will even burn the Xubuntu image for you.

All of these applications are available on the live CD, even while installing. Be adventurous!
