When you are using Skype, it is important to know what the different symbols mean. There are three basic ones: a red circle ( ) indicates that someone does not want to be contacted and cannot respond; a white circle ( ) means they are offline, and a green checkmark () signifies an available user who can talk or chat.
One source stated If a skype user is online and available the icon is green with a checkmark if the skype user is online but busy or away the icon is yellow ! It means the person is currently active on their PC, and not busy in an online meeting, Skype call, or other calendar appointment.
