After my internet connection dying half way through uploading, and Stoat having to fix everything I buggered up whilst installing them, the request for Skype and FLickr buttons has now gone live.

requires your Skype user name, and you can add users to your contacts list by clicking

requires your "Profile Name" to be entered, i.e. the one that is a url at the end of
http://www.flickr.com/photos/
I'll change the template file to include this to stop people getting confused, and I believe if you haven't set this profile name up, that it is quite simple and straightforward to do.
Any comments/suggestions are welcomed as always.
