Skype has its collection of hidden emoticons. There are fourteen of them, not including the 238 country flags. You find all the codes for them here.Today, thanks to a question from RAKISHI on the Skype forum and the answer of the “proud Bulgarian Калин” i can unveil two other hidden curiosities.
When you open a chat window, and begin to chat, normally your contact person will see a typing indicator: a pencil writing!
However, when you press 3 alphabetical keyboard keys at the same time, the typing indicator is changed by something else. Try c+a+t for instance (and keep the keys down), you get an animated cat.
Or try q+s+d and you get two fists grabbing a pencil. Funny.[EDITED]: this works only with the new 3.6 beta Skype client version!

Hello Anonymous,
I just tested it, but "the cat" continues to work (it is the other person you are chatting to who sees it). I didn't find how to make the fists work however
