Bug Description

When taking a screenshot (and specially when taking a "selective" screenshot trough Shift+PrtScr) the resulting image will have this orange filter over it (the one that shows when one makes a screenshot of a part of the screen)

I repeat: this will happen when taking a screenshot of a selection of the screen but also when taking a screenshot of the full screen.

Shutter on the other hand displays no such behavior.

I'm using Ubuntu 12.04.

Regards.
