Hmm.  Well nothing graphical has changed in X recently (there's been
some synaptics fixes, but that wouldn't cause this.)  However, the fact
that it shows up in photos but not screenshots fairly strongly suggests
a video driver issue rather than, say, a compositing bug.

Nothing indicative in the logs (for corruption bugs there usually isn't
though).  The fglrx installation looks fine.  I do notice in your
xorg.conf there's some things set, like TargetRefresh.  I don't know
what that parameter does, so you might try commenting it out to see if
it has any effect.   Everything else looks normal.  (Btw, you may be
able to run fglrx with no xorg.conf now; that might be worth testing,
but be prepared to copy it back in place in case X doesn't boot.)

Can you tell me more about the symptoms?  Does the corruption show up
100% of the time, or only in certain apps?  Is it only associated with
text fonts?  Does it always look the same as in the photo, or does it
vary?

Can you reproduce this behavior with Unity2D or Gnome Classic (no
effects)?

If you disable fglrx and boot with -ati, does the corruption still
occur?
