Does anyone know how to do screen captures in UNIX? Can you recommend any
tools?

Tara,
I am in the middle of evaluating a trial version of Easy Copy 6.0, from AGI
(AutoGraph International) for use on a Linux box. It includes several other
utilities beyond a capture utility, but I really only need to capture and
convert graphics files, so that's all I've looked at. I think it works well
and will probably spring for it.
The price is $149 for the Linux version, but the UNIX flavor versions may be
substantially higher. It's also ported to NT and Win98.
AGI is located on the web at www.augrin.com
