Hey guys, I need help big time. I'm trying to paste a gif image into gmail and it won't appear. The text around it does but not the image. What am I missing?

I don't know if it's possible to post a image in gmail just by using copy>paste.

EDIT: I just tried using Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V with a gif image. It worked just fine.
Which browser are you using?

Firefox. Please don't tell me I have to use IE. But, I'll try what worked for you in the meantime.

Firefox should work just fine. I'm using Google Chrome, you might try if that works for you?
