+If you interesting in capturing specific window - by 'xwininfo' find,

+
+To compound image together:
+
+  $ convert -delay 20 *.png capture.mng  # license free, multi-image file format
+  $ convert -delay 20 *.png capture.gif
+
+You can add text to pictures before compound theirs:
+
+  $ mogrify -fill yellow -draw 'Rectangle 10,10 150,30' -fill black -pointsize 14 \
+     -draw 'text 15,25 "by http://example.com"' $iter.png
+
+If screen capturing slow for you use MIFF file format.
+
+Use root flag to capture all screen:
+
+  $ import -window root $iter.png
