I've also had this very same problem.

software recommendation - What screenshot tools are available? - Ask Ubuntu
http://askubuntu.com/questions/6558/what-screenshot-tools-are-available

mentions scrot, an alternative.

My problem under Ubuntu Unity is that the titles of windows are wrong on
the screenshots of ImageMagick's import and xwd. Screenshots created by
gnome-screenshot, shutter and scrot are fine.

Perhaps the original poster and I don't understand the details of how
all these screenshot tools differ. But please believe that from this
users perspective, import (and xwd) do not create an accurate likeness
of the user desktop.

Here is my screenshot made with import:

The bottom left window is actually minimized too! Note how it has no
window decoration. This screenshot isn't actually bad, but note how the
window title of the top gnome-terminal is burried behind the firefox
window, but the teriminal contents are above firefox? My actual screen
does not look like that.

More or less the same screenshot made with scrot:
http://postimage.org/image/3lsymcqzf/
It faithfully shows what I see on the screen.
