Another way is to use import from the ImageMagick suite, if you prefer to
use the command line.
import filename.jpeg (Note: jpeg not jpg)
Click left button twice in the window you wish to capture.
To capture a random area, depress left button, drag out a rectangle, and
release. To capture whole of screen:
import -window root whatever.jpeg
