Hmm. That doesn't seem to work on my system. It dosen't error but
when I come to paste the clipboard contents, I get nothing.
Because if you were to copy a GIF, say via a Ctrl-click on an image
loaded into Safari, what's put onto the clipboard is _not_ a GIF.
Testing exactly that, I get a TIFF and a PICT on the clipboard.
Therefore you need to *convert* the GIF file before you can "copy" it.
This also means that if your GIF has special features like
transparency or animation, those features will be lost in the process.
Are you sure you want to use the clipboard?
