I think that problem was related to something with the "Widescreen" setting in options. Do you have Widescreen set to on or off? also what resolution are you playing at ingame?

widescreen is off and resolution is 1366x768x32

Resolutions that aren't divisible by 4 lead to VC:MP's screenshots being torn and distorted because it doesn't scale to a resolution that is divisible by 4. 1366 isn't evenly divisible by 4, so the screenshots you take in VC:MP are broken. If I recall correctly, this is an issue with screen capturing in DirectX.

FRAPS takes 1366x768 screenshots and scales them to 1360x768, which is divisible by 4, so screenshots are taken properly by it.

Just change your resolution to 1360x768x32 and you are good to go.
