While it’s still in beta for Windows systems, the newest version of Skype has just been rolled out for Mac clients – and developer Microsoft has given the voice chat application a major facelift.

Skype 7 – as it’s being called – follows in the long-standing tradition that Microsoft has cemented in bringing big changes to the software platform. The user interface has received a complete reworking, and hopes are high that this will deliver a better overall experience for the millions who make use of the application for both business and pleasure.

One such improvement is how sending a photo in chat will generate a thumbnail of the image automatically, dramatically improving the readability of the chat and making it easier to understand when the images were sent while in the middle of a conversation. Additional improvements include shared PDF documents and Microsoft Office files will have their document icons displayed prominently.
