Am I the only one who's frickin' annoyed with the login methods of Skype?
For the rest it's an OK application, but the login is terrible, ever since MS took it over.
(That and that sometimes the application starts up twice and on top of that sometimes in a previous version mode?  )

Yes.  It all seems to work OK for me at least.

It is insane. You enter your email, tab into the password box, and the UI re-loads with a different layout, now you enter your password and get to sign in. I cannot imagine how anyone, even someone totally new to software development and UI design, would have thought this a good idea.

exactly ! also notice you need to give the password box focus again. 
I was kind off expecting (hoping) this to be like a temporary behavior, but nooooo

Hopefully the next update would fix this.

It's hardly the first or only application or website to use it. I would imagine it's presumed to have benefits in preventing auto/bot sign-ins (if you consider that to be a good thing). Anyway, first world problem, don't you think? Outrage, a bit over the top?
I am not a number. I am a ... no, wait!

I don't think you've seen the UI. The UI has a user box and a password box. You can even enter a password there. Just that the UI behavior is based off a focus-lost trigger on the user box, which refreshes the UI - actually closes it and opens another dialog.

The boss asked my to look at using Skype for remote desktop. I've never used Skype before at all. I was annoyed that they seem to insist that I use my MS account to login to Windows...which I refuse to do. So, I haven't gotten anywhere with that task. 
Also, she wants to look at porting over a toll free number to a Skype account...anybody done this?

At the risk of this seeming like a ploy to get attention, I'd like to express my satisfaction with this thread on the C# language forum (which I started): [^].
For me, this thread has the "best of CodeProject" going on: in-depth discussions, friendly challenge, helpful clarifications, fascinating speculative hypotheses.
Even (strange) a quick appearance of Luc Patyn in his cosmic form. Outstanding code contributions from Richard Deeming and Sascha LeFevre.
Of course, if I were smarter, I wouldn't mention this ... since it exposes the depth of my lack of depth; but, surely, that's why I am an ex-MVP (?)
cheers, Bill

The earth has been in existence for 3.54 billion years*. All of us were lucky to spend a short period of that time while Bowie was alive.
*Unless you are religious, then that time is smaller
Yes I'm trying to help make Bowie the new Leslie, afterall I was instrumental in the original Leslie

Yes, but were you instrumental in the destruction of Pompeii 1 and 2?

Ok, I'll bite.... How does someone being religious change the age of earth?
If it's not broken, fix it until it is

Science versus the Bible? I don't know. I'm just guessing that is what he meant.

Creationists believe the earth is around 6000 years old and that humans and dinosaurs walked the earth at the same time. Science tells us the earth is around 4.5 billions years old and that humans and dinosaurs are separated by around 65 million years.
