UI redesign? Anyone can post a screenshot?

Can anyone tell me if I'm able to host more than 5 Man Conference calls with Skype?

Read something once, if you had Duel Core Processors you could host 10 Man calls is this true?

Perhaps another application able to host more than 5 people.

In 3.0 limit was raised to 10 for all CPUs, so 10 participants in conference call for all.

Skype is overall a great app, but I hate the bubbly interface. I mean it's just...fat. You can't shrink the stupid thing to a decently small size. Yes, it's an aesthetic complaint, but for some reason the Skype GUI has always bugged me this way.

You might want to try the new compact mode then.

That was found to be an artificial limit.
