Somewhere in the system settings: there it shoud be able to configure the screensaver.
You can also install additional screensaver in the software center.

Hi...

Again, taking a few a moments to search through Google will answer many of your questions.

Hi...

To illustrate my point, I went to Google, entered the search phrase "How to take a screenshot in Lubuntu 15.10" and found this page in about 5-10 seconds.

If the page doesn't load correctly, you can use this command to install the software...

Code:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:lubuntu-desktop/ppa && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install lxscreenshot
If that doesn't work, there are more entries and suggestions listed in the Google results.

Regards...

Please look at my post again. I changed the page to one that does not automatically load an entirely different page.

Otherwise, I'm not sure what you mean. Please keep in mind the ppa and the software are older, so it may not install through that method.

Regards...

If none of that works, you can also try a program called Shutter. It should be available in the repositories, just use Synaptic package manager to install it. Additional information here.

I apologize, the link I provided was actually from another site that I found in the Google search. I didn't make that clear.

Sorry, but you really don't appear to be getting the message here.

First you essentially ask us to look something up for you, and now you're asking us to TELL YOU HOW TO USE GOOGLE???? At some point, you will have to actually start to try things on your own. Since Google doesn't charge you anything to search, why don't you just try THINKING about terms apply to your question, and JUST TRY IT.

It took you longer to post this, than it would have taken you to try about a dozen Google searches. Your past posting history should also tell you this:

Hi...

What is the error message you receive if you try to open the program in a terminal?
