We might also mention that you can edit existing
contacts if you like, by clicking the little blue pencil icon
at right in the contact card, beneath the green Call
button (phone).

Another feature worth mentioning is that the vertical
stripe at left on the contact card, which can provide
useful feedback about each contact.

If the contact is also a validated contact for the user
account used to sign into Skype TX™, the color of the stripe
indicates whether the contact is ‘Online’, ‘Away’, etc. (a white stripe is shown when the
contact is offline or invisible).

Otherwise, a grey stripe means the contact is “unknown”. This happens when the
contact you created isn’t listed as a Skype contact for the current Skype TX user account
(or if a contact request was rejected).

It would be hard to overlook the fact a large, central part of TalkShow’s upper Desktop is
devoted to video preview monitors, along with a plethora of call and video status
indicators (Figure 69).

Enumerated from top-left in a clockwise direction, the video preview monitors include
the following:

Received Skype™ Video – displays the incoming Skype Call video.

Snapshot – displays the currently stored snapshot; note the blue Grab button
immediately below.
