I'm new to Linux. However I already enjoy what I see. My question is, how do you make a screen shot when using the Desktop, and what program(s) would I go about using to do it? I would also like to know how to take a screen capture using the command line.

Try in terminal :
gnome-screenshot
Or in Dach search for screen shot and open it .
You can simply press the Print Screen button to take a screenshot. It will be placed into your Pictures
folder.
This is actually just a hotkey which invokes the command gnome-screenshot
mentioned by nux.

but it doesn't work if you have an open menu... the menu closes and you can't actually screenshot the menu– loonixJun 6, 2014 at 17:03
