How to: Add a contact me via Skype™ button

This little trick is really simple and easy. All you need to do is plug this line of code anywhere you would like to use the text.

That’s is, pretty simple huh? Just make sure you change skype:austin.passy to your user name!
 
Want a test? Well, please use the text button, as I was getting to many call’s and hangups: Call me on Skype! Message me on Skype!
 
Thanks to Shayne for this code!
 
Update:
 
I was reminded by Shayne that you will have to add this script into your header.php file:
 
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://download.skype.com/share/skypebuttons/js/skypeCheck.js">
</script>
 
That way if the user doesn’t have Skype, they will be prompted to download it if they would like :).
