Well I installed this, and now everyone has the ugly "?" in their Skype icon. Yes, so then I learn it only works for PC users with the latest version of Skype 2.0, and they have to edit their Skype profile to allow for status to be reported to websites. Fair enough. Only most of my users are on Mac.

So then I decide to uninstall.

Only when I did so, I see it's removed the previous (red) Skype icon completely. It's just a blank space now in my postbit and profiles where the static red Skype icon used to be.

How can I get my Skype icons back to the way they used to be? Or at least change the new Skype "?" icon with something not so distracting and dull?

SkypeWeb works only for Windows, this feature exists only in the Windows changelog of Skype.

I understand that completely and stated as such in my post. Since SkypeWeb does little for me, and changes all the Skype icons to a dull gray question mark, I'd simply like to revert back to the way it was before. Uninstalling the SkypeWeb product doesn't do it for me.

Just read this over here :

Warning: If you remove the SkypeWeb product you will also loose the standard templates and phrases used for the skype messenger!

You have to import the default vbulletin-style.xml and vbulletin-language.xml to get the master templates / phrases back.

(The master templates / phrases are replaced with the product ones while importing it...)

I'll be doing this later. (Luckily I'm still on 3.5.3.)

At the moment the SkypeWeb (mystatus.skype.com) server is apparently having issues, so every single one of my forum thread pages are hanging.

There really should be an Admin option to turn SkypeWeb on or off, it has very much potential to be more trouble than it's worth for some forums.
