Why is my image turning gray when I paste another image on it?

I opened a .jpg file that only contains one channel, whenever I try to add another image to the file, the other image also turns gray.

Why is this happening?

Answer

I suspect your image mode is set to Grayscale. Change it to something else using the Image → Mode menu.
