No. The win32gui.GetDesktopWindow function returns the screen size.

ok but how could i capture images of the screen and save them to a gif or video format?

Use the Python Imaging Library. http://www.pythonware.com/products/pil/

Then you can do something like this:

import ImageGrab
capture=ImageGrab.grab()
capture.save('screen.png')
