There are quite a few ways.  ImageMagick that someone mentioned has an
`import' command.  The netpbm collection of image conversion tools has
xwdtopnm and pnmtopng:

	$ xwd -root | xwdtopnm | pnmtopng > desktop.png

I have also used xv(1) from the graphics/xv port to grab, crop and
convert parts of my desktop :)
