What is the location of my Skype ID? Choose the picture that you would like to use as your profile picture. Your Skype Name and your Microsoft Account are both displayed on your profile when you select Skype profile, and you can browse them as you wish.
You may have been given your Skype Name by Skype automatically when you first signed up for Skype, and it is the username you were given when you created your Skype account.
