I wasn't able to identify the picture as being a screenshot that was 
just created. I assumed for a short while that it would change depending 
on the Capture mode selected. Somekind of label would help.

On second thought, that would be a bad idea because it can't be 
considered anything like 'OK', 'Apply' or 'Quit'.

Not quite, but the word 'Region' does not indicate how the region is 
obtained as opposed to 'Window Under Cursor'.

Another nitpick: the screensaver and background preview images are 
located on the right, with controls on the left. It makes alot of sense 
to do the same for ksnapshot.
