OK, I have Skype on my Power Mac G4 AGP Graffics system, and ab? suh, lootly? love it! I do! have one question though: Does anyone perhaps know how on the Mac version of Skype to choose the Mood text and edit it? Here is thus far what I've tried.

.Vo+M to go to the menu bar, then chose edit mood text from account menu
.Noticed I was then not focused in an edit text field
.Vo up down, left and righted, around the screen with no luck finding the mood field
.Vo+H on all items to be sure none of them were the field but mislabeled.
.Looked in the Skype for the Mac user documentation help with not a lotta luck more than what I tried already. .Focused the item chooser menu with vo+I, but couldn't find any type mood text field. .Found something in the item chooser called 24's an adiction but when moving there was placed on my amount of skype Credit and no help on that item was
available more so, than saying view account services.
So, yeah. As you can probably see: Im pulling my hair out trying to figure this one out. I suppose being I do! know my mac account's password, that's easy, and if you thought about it hard enough you may could figure it out if you know anything about me at all, but, lol, anyway, enough said on that note... point is: I guess I could! use this laptop running xp, and sign in and change it, but I really don't wanna use windows as a cruch just to change mood text. I'm sorry, but that is a little rediculous, especially if it's not necessary. I gather, being I have seen other Mac users do this with their mood text, that it can be done, and is voice over friendly/doable, I just can't seem to figure it out. Granted, I'm still pretty new at learning v o, but, Im actually getting fairly good at it. If anyone knows a anything, let me know. I'd be really interested in how the heck you did it. Just for your info, this again's a Power Mac G4, 1.5MB S D Ram, 500MHZ, Running all the most up-to-date except Safari which still is on v2.X, but the O S is currently Tiger 10.4.11. I unfortunately can't go higher to Leopard, due to my low system specs. Running an internal 22GB drive, and an external Seagate USB 300GB drive which is formatted, un? fortunately, me poor little soul, NTFS. Sarcastic laugh. Ok, I'll forgive myself this time. LOL! In any rate, if anyone knows, let me know. O, by the way: this shouldn't be rellevent but it's AGP graffics. Not sure how much on board video cache, so, sorry bout that. It's a tower machine, with a CD/dvd reader combo. it's not a burner. God do I wish it was though.
Thanks a million for any help.
Chris.
