First, thanks for ScreenToGif (and I've donated, after just a few minutes usage, because it's really good).

Now on to the issue I'm having: I create a recording, select "Copy to clipboard", toggle "File" on, and save. ScreenToGif says it's copied to the clipboard, but I notice that I can't paste into browser inputs (like this one) which would accept image data. So I have to save as a file, open with windows photo viewer and copy/paste from there.

I'm not sure how to get ScreenToGif to record itself (opening multiple instances didn't get me there), so I've used RecordIt -- which I want to stop using (:
