Inserting images from Snipping tool

Hey folks, I have been running Draftsight for a few months on a Windows 7 machine.

I create layout drawings for a wire harness manufacturer. In order to save time I use snipping tool to cut the connector images and place them in the drawing. These show up as the image, not a link.

I recently upgraded to Windows 8 and tried the same commands: paste / paste selected. It is embedding the cut data as a link, not as the image.

 

What am I doing wrong?

 

Thanks for the help!
