Do you have other user accounts on your system or could you have run screenshot as root for some reason? The other possibility that comes to mind is that your system time is wrong for some reason and that screenshot is creating a file with an out of date timestamp and that's confusing it. I'll have a quick look through the source code and see if there are any clues. -- Twitter: @sfgreenwood "TBA are particularly glib"
