What exactly is wrong with your screen capture?

Hi rishele, the second screenshot shows it a lot better.

Does restarting the browser make a difference?
Does it occur in more than one application?
Does the temperature of the Mac seem to have a difference on that behavior?
Do you have any added RAM?
Which model of Mac do you have?
Has it started to happen only recently?
Do any applications quit unexpectedly?

I would recommend running the diagnostics especially if that happens on multiple applications and/or seems to depend on the Mac's operating temperature
Use Apple Hardware Test and other diagnostics to test for hardware
Also check in Console (Applications/Utilities) to see if anything unusual is reported when this happens.
