Skype?
 
No Skype thread as far as I can see? I figured it'd be a fun idea if we could have a Ledgie Skype chat. I know a lot of Queen fans that do it and have like themed Queen debates. We should try something like that if enough people are up for it :blob2:

My laptop came with a Skype app, but I've never tried to use it. Do you use a webcam also, or is it just voice? I feel dumb now, not knowing.....:lol:

RickRobert 04-07-2011 06:12 PM

Webcam and voice, webcam or voice, or neither!

I thought you detested showing your face? :p

And Homer, Skype is much like other instant messengers. You can just use it as a chat program, or you can use it as a video chat program with voice. It's the best free video chat program I know of.

I was wondering why you were holding that CD in front of your face....

I always prefered MSN. Skype tends to enjoy indulging in regular games of "Let's fu.ck up Bee's computer" so I steer clear now.

MSN is better for just IMing, Skype is best for voice/video chat I'd say.

Long time no talk Bee :wavey:

I don't really go for video chats. I usually forget that I'm talking to somebody and inadvertently do something unwittingly embarassing on camera hehe.

I know. Havn't really been talking to anybody. Needed to seperate myself from people for a while.

I thought you look fine, from what I could see. I even lightened the pics with Photoshop, so I could see what you're trying to hide. Don't be so self-conscious.:nod:

homie, question. cant people just be what they are? maybe he isn't hiding anything other than the fact that he is unphotogen in his eyes. ive noticed youve poked and prodded a couple people about this, and im curious why you do that. youve made a tremendous turnaround in how you feel and look at yourself. and you prettymuch did that for yourself. that doesn't mean everyone wants to see as you do or read another pep. ya kno? this isnt meant as a neg, just wondering.

Just as a reminder, for those not interested in video chat or downloading a program, there's always the Nicksfix chatroom.

Sure. Maybe you're assuming that we're not friendly outside of here, like on Facebook, and have conversations outside of here, too. Which is the case. And that I feel he's comfortable with me saying that.

I think trying to tell someone that they look fine, and to not worry, is a good thing.

sure. maybe it is the photoshop of someone's photo to find features pleasing to your eye seemed a tad insensitive towards the person that has thoughts of being unphotogenic.
