Isadora, and I'm assuming it's the GNOME version, and that it's the gnome-screenshot application. And I don't have Isadora installed so I hope someone will step in here and help out. Meantime, maybe you can install KSnapshot and use that instead. I prefer to use KSnapshot no matter which desktop environment I'm in.
