'' Send a message via skype ''
I noticed something like this in Yorg's posts under his rep bar. I assume it's enabled from control panel ? Either remove such feature or do something about it .. The pages now look untidy and messy because the area where his avatar is is wider now than the areas with everyone else.

That's not how it's displayed . You must have been looking at it before the page finishes loading, as that is caused by the mouse over text on it ,"Send a message via skype", to be displayed briefly instead until the skype icon loads in it's place.
All of the message services that can appear under the user's rep do this sometimes, if you look at it while the page is still loading.

It often seems to take quite a while for the Skype server to respond and show the appropriate icon. I suspect it has to confirm that the person has an account. During this time you'll see the "Send a message" text. I agree it's annoying because it makes the left-column much too wide.
Is there any way to tell how often people use this feature? I presume all the clicks would go to Skype and not appear in your server logs, so it would be difficult to determine. If hardly anyone ever actually contacts someone via Skype, maybe it's better to remove the feature entirely. It's not like there aren't a number of other ways to contact a member.
