murmaiderman, RagdollDiegokiller,

With the newest version of Skype it might be. I've never tried it. Why do you ask? Got 2 hot girls you want to do a vid call with?

michaelstipefan777,

you don't give out your skype username to anyone but friends or those you trust. You may still get come odd calls but those are very few.

The benefits of using the free service far outweigh any potential negatives.

ZakreFactory,

I don't know what you mean by masking your voice. Like for doing prank calls using a 'Scream' type of voice synthesizer? I have no idea how to do so and wouldn't advise doing that.

abba,

It doesn't matter how it appears on your screen. It shows at a decent size on the receiver's screen.

As far as I know there's no way to customize the size on the viewer's end.

Only occassionally when it's an international call with multiple continents.

Obalert,

WE have a friendly feud going. Mostly in good fun, sometimes gets more spirited.

[DawnCherryful]

you might consider just making a vid showing a call, ring ring, hello, bla bla and bye, cause I still don't get it.
