I'm a big Skype user and also a big user of Clearvale.  I recently heard of a way to put a "call me" skype button on my profile in Clearvale using the Freeform widget.  First, visit the following Skype URL:  http://www.skype.com/intl/en-us/tell-a-friend/get-a-skype-button/.  Configure the button as you wish on that URL and then choose the "Email HTML" option (not the Web HTML version).  Copy that and paste that into the Freeform widget (which you should place on your profile page).  When you paste it into Freeform, choose  to REMOVE the editor.  You might also want to hide the heading for non-Admin users (although this is optional).  Then reload your profile page to see the results.

It adds a nice Skype button to your profile that allows people to see your status and/or call you on Skype and/or to text you (depending on the version you choose from Skype on the URL above).

Enjoy!
