Don't forget OS X's own Grab utility, which lets you take a timed screenshot; just start the timer, click the Test button for the screensaver, and you'll get your screenshot ;-)

Is there a way to change the amount of time Grab counts down from? I'm trying to take a screenshot of the iTunes screensaver (like this ), and 10 seconds isn't long enough for the screensaver to start.
