On the 5-th of June 2013 Skype released the 6.5 version of the program.
The most significant change is the new feature called video messaging. These video messages can be sent to a contact even if he is offline. In that case he will be able to watch them after he logs back in.
What is new in Skype 6.5?
- Ability to record and send video messages. [Picture]
- Accepting a request by another contact inside the chat window. [Picture]
Fixed issues
- Birthday notifications were not working.
- The button for canceling all files that are being transfered was not working.
- When a file transfer was canceled it displayed as a successful transfer.
- There was no notification if during a call the connection was lost.
- Skype used to crash when we click on a contact that is offline and then we click on the ‘Call phones’ button.
- Skype used to freeze sometimes on exit or when sending a file.
- And more…

Thank you. Do you know are they planning to do offline message support?
Hi.
Is this a feature that sends messages when the person is online regardless if the sender if online? Because now both must be online.
I am not familiar with this, but it seems that this was removed because of a big crash caused by it. At least this is what a Super User on the Skype forums says here: http://community.skype.com/t5/Mac/Offline-Instant-Message-Delivery/m-p/325760/highlight/true#M34099
You can search more on the forums there and you may find if someone knows something more about that.
Regards.
