Ditto is an extension to the standard windows clipboard. It saves each item placed on the clipboard allowing you access to any of those items at a later time. Ditto allows you to save any type of information that can be put on the clipboard, text, images, html, custom formats.

I use ClipX myself. I tried this a few months ago and got rid of it in minutes. Thought I'd try it again today when I saw the new version, and man, it's come a long way. This is a very good clipboard program now, and it a fairly short time. anomoly's review was a bit harsh, 5 clicks to what??? The comment about the thumbnails I have to agree with though. Anyway, I rate it 5 for both the distance it's come in the few months since I last tried it and how nice it is to use now.

Freeware from sourceforge. That's a first.
I use clipx but will give this a go. (again)
Same as last time. Copying a picture produces a much too small (incomprehensible) bitmap with the title "CF_DIB" (wtf is that?)and this alone makes it a worthless program compared to clipx which will show the picture in any size you like. Clipx also has a stickie plugin which is good for something you always don't want to type (but are asked to do so consistently like an email addy).
Plus ditto starts out with some weird a** font that is totally unreadable and you must select a 'custom' (as in english) font.
Fix the copying a picture issue so that you can click the tray icon and you see a smaller version of the image. I really don't need a cf_dib title for every unrecognizable picture I copy. I like the always stay connected to clipboard option but the program is rather useless compared to the simplicity & usefulness of clipx. Really, 100 options for a clipboard manager and you can't even use it without 5 mouseclicks for every entry?

Now this is a perfect simple clipboard extender I was looking for ages. No big, huge, unwanted features list. And its FREE unlike bulky commercial solutions.
