Terry, They have simplified GIMP, which is probably why you don't see "Copy to Clipboard" in the Edit menu anymore -- now simply copying should copy the contents to the clipboard. If you are using Windows or Linux, then Ctrl+C will copy your image to the clipboard. I'm not sure about the keyboard shortcut to copy on Mac, but Edit > Copy will do the trick. Simplication of the tool means removing some unused or redundant features, and combining features that should go together. By combining simple copy and copy to clipboard, into simply copy they have made this MUCH easier to use in my opinion.
