[Skype] Screen sharing still free

Did you find last version of Skype (> 6.1.0 on OsX) doesn't let you share the screen while you're having a one-to-one chat?

Before what you had to do to share your screen during the video-call was to select 'Share Screen', right?

Now it asks you to buy Skype premium to restore the old feature you used a lot since they decided to take it off few days ago... but wait, the feature is not gone: it just became longer to activate.

So, during the next video-call, if you want to share your screen again, do the following:
  • Turn off your video
  • Activate 'Share Screen'
That's it.
Easy. Simple.
It can be done even by a script.

But some smart guy at Skype decided the user now has to do 2 more clicks for something like that.

So now say thanks to Skype for this nice move.
