you may try THE GIMP, there is a quick screen capture utility,
just click on the X11 window and the image is captured to Gimp.
Hope it works!

Hi Judy,

In what way do you qualify as a "newbie??"

Unfortunately, there is no output facility from ximage.  The only way 
to get the image is with a window capture.  Fortunately, X11 has a 
utility for this, called xwd.  If your image file were named "35b3", 
you could call the following command once it was up:

	% xwd -name 35b3 -out 35b3.xwd

The xwd program looks up the window by name, then dumps its contents to 
the file 35b3.xwd.  Unfortunately, none of the mainstream programs will 
recognize the little-used "X-window dump" format, so you'll have to 
load it into GraphicConverter or somesuch and save it out in a more 
conventional format.
