Default Screen capture app?

I can't seem to find any way to take screen shots of my Android phone - on the phone. I've found a 14 step way to do it though a PC and with Android SDK... is there any apps that can do this, directly on the phone?

Non-Rooted users can use "Screen capture" 2 versions: 2.1 eclair and 2.2 froyo. Only down side is that you need to install a file via ADB from computer. I got it to work after a few hours of trial and error lol.

"Shoot Me" from the market is free and super easy to use ... just shake to take a screen cap.

Default Screenshot App

This works if you are rooted:

It's just called Screenshot and can be downloaded from the market for free

I've noticed these since the Captivate 2.2 leak back in October, but never figured out how to use it. You wouldn't happen to know would you?
Samsung Galaxy S3 SGH-i747
Task650 AOKP Build 5/9/2013
JB 4.2.2
Primary Phone

Samsung Captivate SGH-i897 Build #1012
AOKP Milestone 6
ICS 4.0.4
Backup Phone

Reading XDA makes me want to slam my head against a wall after just 5 minutes.
