How can i make the application, Shutter (takes screenshots) open at startup? I know about sys > prefs > statup applications, but after I go to add what do I fill out the form with? Shutter isn't a command, is it?

You can drag and drop the Shutter menu item (Applications ➜ Accessories ➜ Shutter) into
the Startup Applications window and it will be added to the list of applications that start on login.

Actually, you answered the question yourself. Go to System -> Preferences -> Startup Applications and add a new item with "Shutter" (or something else) as the name and shutter as the command.

Make sure you put shutter exactly as mniess typed it--all lower-case. – Matthew Oct 22 '10 at 18:06

For the command, add shutter --min_at_startup to make it startup minimized.
