A little searching in your distribution´s repositories and on the Internet will uncover a few extra applets which are not included in the official Gnome offering, but which you may find very useful all the same. Let's take a brief look at some of them.

NAME
gnome-panel-screenshot - GNOME screenshot utility SYNOPSIS
gnome-panel-screenshot [--window] [--delay=int] DESCRIPTION
gnome-panel-screenshot is the command-line interface version of the gnome-panel screenshot option. The gnome-panel screenshot option cap- tures the complete screen without the delay option. The command-line option is more versatile; it allows you to capture the screen image of a window, as well as the complete screen. gnome-panel-screenshot also allows you to specify a delay before the screen or window is captured into file. If the --window option is used, you must move the mouse pointer to the window to be captured. The --delay option is always used with the --window option, to allow sufficient delay to set up the required screenshot. Once you have captured the window region, you are presented with a preview of the snapshot. You can then choose one of the following three options to handle the captured image: o Save screenshot to file o Save screenshot to desktop o Save screenshot to web page (save in ~/public html) OPTIONS
The following options are supported: --window Capture a screenshot of the window in which the mouse pointer is located. --delay=int Pause for int seconds before capturing the window or screen EXAMPLES
Example 1: Capturing the full screen example% gnome-panel-screenshot EXIT STATUS
The following exit values are returned: 0 Application exited successfully >0 Application exited with failure FILES
The following files are used by this application: /usr/bin/gnome-panel-scrExecutable for GNOME screenshot utility ATTRIBUTES
