So I guess it should include a delay (different from 0 seconds) so that the "Take a screenshot" window would have time to disappear (because that's how it looks like in your screenshot)? That's what bothering you right? The fact that the "Take a screenshot" window is still visible...?

Or maybe you are refering to line that appears on the left? That must be because you moved the cube while taking the screenshot!

Thank you for your bug. Does it happen only with compiz? Looks like bug #93234

I can confirm this happens. Basically, when Compiz (Desktop Effects) is on, the gnome-screenshot dialog box is still fading away when the screenshot is taken.

The resulting screenshot has a translucent gnome-screenshot dialog pane as a result.

When Compiz is on, Gnome screenshot should automatically have a default delay equal to the fade speed settings in Compiz.
