screenshots on Linux

Found this page with a review of lots of methods to take screenshots,
http://tips.webdesign10.com/how-to-take-a-screenshot-with-ubuntu-linux

 sleep 10; import -window root MyScreenshot2.png

seems to be the least resource hungry method, since it needs only ImageMagick and not kde etc.

Taking screenshots with vlc, the vlc screen seems to come on top of other windows like options window etc. Or the window ordering for screenshots is different or something like that. Need to arrange open windows in non-overlapping ways to avoid problems.
