Sorry, I have zero experience with Skype and have never used video chat with any client.

I'll see if I can find someone who can help you, though.

Maybe it would help if you tell us what kind of camera you are using.

The link below starts an automatic download of Skype for Mac OS X 10.3 and above:

Yahoo Messenger:

I am not certain that this version of Yahoo Messenger has video chat.

There is a beta version out of Yahoo Messenger which has Mac OS X 10.3.9 as a minimum requirement:

It says it has webcam support, but I'm not sure which webcams may be included in that support.

Personally, I use Apple's iChat (which uses the AIM protocol) for instant messaging. iChat is included with Mac OS X 10.3.

Good luck.
