Pasting from MS Snip is only B/W - RealGomer - 12-31-2022

I'll use ms snip to clip excerpts from email to paste into GIMP 2.10. For some reason, the pasted image is only in B?W (gray tone) not color. Why?

Perhaps you are in the grayscale environment.
Try:
Image - Mode - RGB

You nailed it. Why GIMP was in grey scale I'll never know. Thanks!

If you change it to that you have to change it back and some picture are in a different mode from RGB anyhow
