We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to review all reported bugs in a timely manner. Do you still see a problem related to the one that you reported when using currently supported versions of Ubuntu and Firefox?

The "Take a Screenshot" function of Firefox allows downloading the screenshot to ~/Downloads but GNOME Screenshot saves images to ~/Pictures so it looks as if your issue was incorrectly filed against Firefox.

Does or did this problem affect other applications or just when running Firefox?
