check out my ubuntu resources thread in my sig and look there. Ubuntu is one of the easiest distros to learn.

lets see it is verry customizable and fun to learn and i believe that native programs run faster on linux. it is also free and the software is almost always free too.

The "Take Screenshot" icon launches the app. and lets you set a delay. If you just hit the screenshot button on your keyboard then it does it immediately.

I never use that plugin, since the normal Gnome app. does a fine job on its own. Applications > Accessories > Take Screenshot
