Hi again Ajay_Ajay.
There was a suggestion posted by the member tonig123, but was removed by the moderator. It was a fairly good suggestion, but he unfortunately posted a link to a version of the software that was "cracked", and so cannot be allowed here. The suggestion was that some software intended for "spying" is able to take screenshots at whatever intervals you choose in the program configuration, and that it may be possible to use a program like that for your purposes.
Of course, not all programs of this type are intended to spy illegally on other peoples' computers, although many legitimate programs of their type are unfortunately used with bad intent. There are some utility programs written specifically to allow parents to monitor their childrens' activities to make sure they are not engaging in chat sites with the wrong kinds of people, etc. The drawback, as mentioned in the comment that tonig123 posted, is that AntiVirus applications usually see this type of program as a threat and intercept them. Another issue that I would emphasis is that unless a child-monitoring software utility like this is written by a reputable retail company, you can end up installing a freeware program that actually does install malware of its own.
The risk would be entirely up to you whether you wanted to experiment with such a program, perhaps just on a trial basis, to see if it would work for your needs. Legitimate software titles are:
http://www.key-logger.ws/ (the proper retail link, not to a cracked version)
http://www.parentalsoftwar
Generally you will find that Trial versions limit how much you can configure, and nearly always do not allow the program to operate in "stealth mode", which would be better for your needs if you chose to experiment.
A google search for "child monitoring software screenshots screen capture" will provide a lot of links, but it would then be entirely your judgement which sites and software to avoid. Bearing in mind that software like this works in similar ways to what some Trojans do, I am not convinced that it is your best option though.
Going back to my previous comment before the moderator's comment, could you please let us know exactly what it is that you need. Perhaps then we can suggest something appropriate.

It is not clear from any of your questions about this issue whether you want to:
1. Take timed screenshots ie. at preset intervals,
or
2. Take screenshots when you want to take them using eg. a keyboard hotkey combination.
In either case it is obvious that you want a way to have the screenshots saved somewhere automatically with file sequential names so you don't have to do it manually in an image editor, but it isn't clear WHEN you want the screenshots created.
