Don't forget about "import" from the shell.

sleep 5; import -w appwindow appshot.png

Gives you 5 seconds to get anything ready in that particular window.  Use -w 
root to get a complete desktop shot, or use something funky like -w fred  to 
be able to use your mouse to select which window you want to capture.
