All:
It is a nice thing, and I have used it.
But like so many good things, it can also have a down-side.
When you accidentally press the print-screen key, it will take a
screen-shot of the screen, and with a large, high-resolution screen, it
can over time, use up a significant amount of space in your home directory.
You just need to be aware of the possibility of such files appearing,
and clean them up.

Hi everyone,
Hope the testing of Lubuntu 13.04 is keeping everyone busy :D enjoy
and have fun with it ;)
This is a Tip that could be obvious and old for some but I guess some
other haven't heard about it. I got a question on our Community on
Google+ [1] asking about it so I thought it's good to share it here
for those who don't like Social Networks ;)
*Lubuntu, my default, has an application to take Screenshots. When you
press "Prt Scr" on your Keyboard, you are taking a screenshot using
"scrot" in Lubuntu and the screenshot will be saved on your Home Folder.*
There is a nice link [2] or article I found which is talking about
"scrot" and it has some useful information.
The most interested part is: the delay for 5 seconds for example.
From LXTerminal:
*scrot -d 5*
So, I find it really useful to use the default application rather than
installing something else, say "gnome-screenshot" :)
Hope that is a bit helpful :)
Thanks!
