on the homepage that gives you the option of downloading Skype to your hard drive.

Making a Video Call To return a miss call:
Double click the name of the person you would like to video chat with, a chat box will appear with the option to call the contact.
To initiate the call, press the green “call” button.
If the other user accepts the call a video window will open revealing both users.
If another Skype user “calls” and the call is missed there will be a tab on the Skype Buddy List labeled “Conversations”
